How do your readers view themselves as readers? How do they view their own persistence? Their opportunity to make decisions within your classroom? What their perceptions of their own persistence?
These questions are all aspects of student agency, and in this episode I talk with Dr. Margaret Vaughn about the Student Agency Profile (StAP) that she developed to help understand how students view their own agency within their classroom.
In this episode we talk about the 6 aspects of agency, why it matters in the classroom, and ideas for how the StAP could be used within the classroom. If you’re interested in helping your readers see themselves as readers, this episode has a lot of takeaways for you.
