Owning the Learning: Intentional Student Choice

Participants engage in activities to explore strategies that can increase the intentional use of student choice by bridging content and student interest. These strategies provide opportunities for students to feel they have some control or ownership in their learning environment, which can make learning more meaningful. Participants will focus on their content area and identify specific strategies that they can implement in a variety of ways, whether student choice is small or large. Teachers can use the strategies that they believe are best suited for their classroom environments.
