Transforming participatory facilitation: Reflections from practice (PLA 41)

This paper tries to move 'educators' away from seeing their students as objects to seeing them as subjects, and to looking at teaching as a reciprocal process, with teacher and student both participating in and learning from the experience. Examples from the author's experience are given.
