Vincent,
Tangentally related to your query: Jared and I recently gave a presentation on game design to some high school students. I ran the Imaginary Can of Peaches exercise for them—aka Crypto-Permissions and Expectations—and then we played a game.
They got it, dude. Maybe not intellectually yet, but in their collective gut they understood. It was amazing. I was terrified they were going to laugh me out of the room, or simply stare at me when I started in with the "imagine there's a can of peaches on this desk..." But they got it.
Good times.
