If We Listen, Students Will Lead Education R&D
Description:

What would happen if students were leading? Hear from students who are leading education R&D by creating innovative programs that deepen student engagement and agency in high school writing. Learn how adults are supporting students in creating solutions that are changing the impact of teaching and learning.
