Bill: I read with interest your response to John. Just a thought.
"Consumer "as your students defined it strikes me as a one-way transaction
in the sense that health care delivers the services and the patient, the
consumer, receives them. In education, I don't think that definition
works quite as well because I think the learning process has to be
reciprocal. I don't see it as quite so linear. I like the students' term
"stakeholder." I need to think about how it works in my environment -- we
do use that term - but not quite so comprehensively as your students
propose. By the way, what kind of course is this? Harriett.
