Answer 1

Just think of using a CheckBox directly in your CellTemplate.

<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Your boolean column">
  <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
      <DataTemplate>
          <CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding YourBooleanProperty, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" />
      </DataTemplate>
  </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>
