Simone, I had been thinking along the same lines in terms of how much education seems focused on improving teachers, curriculum, resources, etc., but not really looking into ways to create better students more directly.  That is, rather than changing everything around students but not explaining why, it would be nice to explain to students, or let the students explain to teachers, how they are learning best, and to make changes based on mutual understandings with lots of student input.  I think that this would improve students, get them more involved, by adjusting the classroom to their needs.
