Inspiring Learner Agency
How might we strengthen the conditions for young people to become strong agentic learners?
The program is designed to strengthen and stretch our understandings about learner agency and to translate these understandings in the context of a local designed professional inquiry.
Inspiring Learner Agency is a partnership between a passionate team of school colleagues and the EdPartnerships team, who together explore and investigate learner agency and apply these new learnings in the context of their local school community.
The program focuses on the following areas of learning:
- Deeply understanding self, others and community; shifting and shaping learner and professional identities
- Creating spaces of belonging and connectedness; attending to the social, relational and material contexts for learning
- Co-creating the curriculum landscape of learning; co-design for learning that is authentic and relevant to the lives of learners
- Partners in learning and leading; creating dynamic learning communities
Overview
The program is for a team of 2-4 colleagues - leaders, teacher leaders and teachers - who are interested in exploring and investigating learner agency in their school community. It is important that the team is actively supported by whole school leadership to investigate and innovate in a process of professional inquiry.
Inspiring Learner Agency is a remotely facilitated online course with multiple opportunities for interactive and collaborative small group learning.
We are also offering additional intakes for locally/regionally based programs with a blend of face to face and online facilitation. This is something we are very excited to be launching (more information below).
The structure of the program is 5 facilitated workshop days, 3 hrs of school team mentoring across the duration of the program, as well as ongoing investigation and application that is relevant to your professional inquiry focus.
