2. Using your newfound understanding of the aforementioned theory, let's say you were a teacher. How would you explain to a student how this theory works? Give an example of a creative assignment or project that would allow room for students to make their own choices and negotiate objectives, rules tools, materials, conventions of specific communicative genres, activitity system or discipline.

I would try to teach the students by making them do a project in which they try to come up with creative ways to teach other students regarding this topic by researching it themselves, and of course I'll provide some background as to what this topic is about. It is because I am of the belief that if one can be good enough to teach others, then they'll have to know the topic really well. Apart from this project idea though, I genuinely think that teaching them directly in class would be the best idea (and testing them), because it will force the students into studying and learning the material this way; those creative projects are merely excuses for the lazy students who are not willing to study (at least the way I see it)...
