In designing a collaborative research strategy for a study of computers in high school classrooms, a number of difficult decisions had to be faced.

In making these difficult choices, we were guided by the basic ethical and epistemological demands of a social constructionist perspective, and by the central imperative of providing a ‘fair trade’ t... |
