About the Talk

What’s all the buzz about “Agentic Learning” in the Enhanced PYP and how do we make it happen? How do we keep “action” from being another tick box, and ensure it is authentic and purposeful, while also developing the other essential elements of the PYP? Through this workshop, develop strategies for creating learning environments that nurture agency and action in students.

Intentions for the Talk

  • Understand the core features of human agency
  • Explore strategies for creating learning environments that nurture agency
  • Examine the interconnectedness of agency and inquiry
  • Explore the Service Learning Framework to support the development of skills and mindsets for agency
