Towards a Model of Strategic Actions in the Classroom: Games Theory as a Research Heuristic.
Elstad, Eyvind
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v46 n1 p65-81 Mar 2002
Discusses how the conceptual apparatus and modus operandi of games theory provides a research heuristic for understanding the strategic possibilities inherent in typical classroom situations in which the interests of students and teachers are partially concurrent and partly in conflict. Also discusses the preconditions for contracts between teachers and students and why these contracts can come apart. (Author/SLD)
