At the Johnston Center, an individualized, internal degree-granting
program within the University of Redlands, Redlands, California,
students are required to write contracts for many of their courses.
The best part of this plan is that teachers have to really listen to
the students, and they get to find out when the students really don't
want to do what an instructor thinks they want to do. The contract
really says what a studnet intends to do, and what a student hopes the
professor would do.
