When we came down to this piece of research, it was really important that we had a space for students to express their views really clearly. So we did that through using some really clear boundaries. And developing those boundaries in the classroom initially help to do that. Also trying to value their voice and their opinions, it was done through having some clear class rules about whose voice should be heard, and how those voices should be heard.

And we came to a agreement within the classroom that everybody’s voice should be heard through given a set of particular rules, such as respecting each other, trying to show that you were listening, when you are talking to be able to face the class. So a lots of discussions are held at that point to really come to an understanding of what those classroom rules were, but we did that together.
