First, a reply to a comment: “withing” — transforms the preposition into a verb gerund! I love grammatical “mistakes,” née INVENTIONS:)
I cannot call myself a grammar nazi. I make too many mistakes.

Next, a comment to the article:
I hear the message of your writing loud and clear. I teach 11–14 year old American children in a public school. Gratefully I am responsible for leading them in practices of communication, broadcasting, theatre arts (and this year making a yearbook). I want my relationship as a teacher to the learners in my classroom to include: allowing them to be their own learners and exercise choice/responsibility, actually risking creating performances and ‘products’ and balancing chaos. It seems the common class management knowledge reflected back to me from peers is “The best place for a teacher with this age group is Alpha.” I must define that for myself daily.
Thanks for the topic!
