Should Mr. Beezley change his expectations for students' classroom behavior in his new teaching situation? Why or why not?
What will be an ideal response?
Mr. Beezley obviously thinks that his students' cooperative behavior is a form of cheating. However, cooperative behavior is typical of Navajo children, who are brought up to value the achievement of the entire community over the achievement of specific individuals. In this situation, the students are clearly helping one another learn—a situation that is probably in everyone's best interest.
