I think it depends on the context in which We is being used. Students as learners should be allowed to work as collaborators to construct their learning content. Then there will be a dialogue between the students in a constructivist manner to improve their content material. Foundation for this type of students' collaborative work can be initiated by themselves or by their teachers. If teachers have initiated such a work, then there is a necessity for teachers to be their mentors/guides or facilitators.
