Student Agency, Wellbeing and Learning
Research and report by Megan Martin, Lydia Sula, Liz Beattie, Keri Campbell and Dr Sarah Te One
Motivated by our shared concern for social justice and child rights, and by lessons from research into the interaction between student agency, wellbeing and learning, our project set out to explore how we could improve wellbeing outcomes for students.
Through our findings, we identified six elements that need to be present in a classroom or school to improve learner agency and wellbeing, and thus learning. These are relationships, identity, participation, pedagogical know-how, leadership, and environment. They combine to form a transformational model, called The RIPPLE Effect.
