The Brain Museum: Unlocking Student Agency in Secondary Classrooms

How do you develop a student-centered secondary classroom with a packed curriculum, strict assessment guidelines, and an exam based culture?

This is the dilemma Gisou Ravanbaksh faced when wanting to provide more agency to her students in her DP Psychology class.

Learn more about the shifts she implemented and how you can unleash student agency in yours as well.
