"Student Agency is a focus on helping students find, organize, and use information... to create, collaborate, and share in ways that are meaningful to them - and to others in the outside world. " One interesting thing we talked about in our last meeting at school was student skill sets. There is the presumption of technological competence in students that I do not see in our school and in many other low income urban environments. The difficulty is to fit the teaching of skill sets they need in a time frame that is limited. It must be done while covering a wide curriculum with students who struggle to connect in intellectual engagement. We talked about how to teach students these skills and when. It was a general discussion, but will be necessary if we are to implement a grant we received with fidelity.
Hopefully with the focus on defining the when and the where and the how, student agency will have a development plan for the classroom so that when I give open ended projects it is more likely to bring the majority of students with and have a framework for success that also has relevance to the workplace and world they will be graduating into.
