The underlying premise is to move learners from a state of engagement to empowerment so that they exert more ownership over their learning. A culture that embraces student agency promotes risk-taking while working to remove the fear of failure helps students develop a growth mindset, and has students applying what they have learned in real-world contexts as opposed to just in the classroom. Student agency is all about improving the learning experience for kids.

The premise was simple; allow students to utilize guided inquiry in an informal learning environment that was facilitated by the use of real-world tools to do real-world work. Students were not only able to actively explore their passions, but also learn from failure as well as trial and error. Our students thrived in an environment where the word “fail” really stood for first attempt in learning. Laura Fleming Maker Movement Makerspace Uncommon Learning
