Translation by using more general word
Because of the lightheartedness of how I introduce
these roles and consequences, my clear explanation
of the importance of everyones participation, and the
fact that I have given the students the responsibility
of deciding the consequences,
Karena kerendahan hati saya dalam memperkenalkan
peran-peran dan konsekuensi, penjelasan yang
gamblang akan pentingnya partisipasi setiap siswa, dan
fakta bahwa saya telah memberikan siswa tanggung
jawab dalam menentukan konsekuensi Paraphrase

The more ownership I give my students, the

better their buy-in is and the more likely they are

to live up to my expectations.
semakin banyak kepemilikan yang saya berikan
pada siswasaya, semakin baik mereka
membelinya dan semakin mereka hidup sesuai
ekspektasi saya. paraphrasing using

Projects.
mereka dapat mendiskusikan Proyek
Lokakarya Budaya (Cultural Workshop
