Course Description

As education evolves toward customized learning, the need for self-directed learners will become critical for the learning environment. With learners at different places in the curriculum, working on several projects and in changing physical environments, learners will need to develop a strong sense of personal responsibility. The Learner Agency work done at TIE supports educators on implementing these ideas. This course will introduce you to tools and resources to support this work for learners. By the end of this course, you will complete a full 10-day curriculum to begin implementing in your learning environment right away!
