Julie Hay’s model of refracted transaction from the educational perspective

Abstract

The article is based on the model of refracted transaction proposed by Julie Hay, in which the key role is played by the teacher's reference framework and the life position he has adopted. Like a prism which direct sun's rays, the reference framework directs the relations between teachers and students. The article presents the role and importance of refracted school transactions exemplified by interactions between a teacher and a student.
