Teachers evolve into facilitators of learning who empower their students and apply ISTE standards for students in their practice. Teachers:

• foster a culture of student agency where learners are empowered to take ownership over their learning goals and outcomes.
• manage the use of technology and student learning strategies in digital platforms, virtual environments, hands-on makerspaces or in the field.
• create learning opportunities that challenge students to use a design process and computational thinking to innovate and solve problems.
• model and nurture creativity and creative expression to communicate ideas, knowledge or connections.

This week's experience is all about student agency, and giving students the opportunity to be creative, computational thinkers by empowering them to take control of their learning experience. You'll also be creating your second (and final) lesson plan for the course. On this one, you can collaborate with other class members. Your goal is to implement things you've learned in this course to move your lesson to creative and transformative!

1. Discover ways you can give your students agency in their learning.
