How can we involve students in classroom decisions?  Why should we do this?  Can it work? What implications
does this have for teachers?  What difficulties might arise? What benefits can we expect?
Classroom Decision-Making: negotiation and process syllabuses in practice (Breen and Littlejohn, CUP 2000) provides detailed examples of involving students in classroom decisions, with practical accounts  written by teachers in primary, secondary,  adult and teacher education.
