Unleashing Student Agency: Worldwide Evidence & Practice
Propelled by the rise of AI, we are moving from the Age of Achievement to the Age of Agency as Rebecca Winthrop and Jenny Anderson argue in their new book, The Disengaged Teen: Helping Kids Learn Better, Feel Better, and Live Better. Come hear how education leaders from the U.S. to Brazil and India to Lebanon are navigating this transition and what innovations are proving the most impactful. Participants will learn about recent research on student agentic engagement and why it is not a nice to have but an essential piece of supporting equity and serving the most marginalized students.
