Beliefs and Practices to Reclaim Student Agency Book Study

In their latest book, Penny Kittle and Kelly Gallagher aim to move students beyond compliance and formula and develop students’ agency, independence, and decision-making skills.  The book focuses on four essential practices: the essay, book clubs, poetry, and digital composition.  Kittle and Gallagher write, “By reimagining how we teach essay, poetry, book clubs, and digital composition, we can open the door to more engaged, connected, and challenging learning.”

This course is a Southern Utah University Course for one-credit graduate course. Cost for the course is $21 and will be paid directly to SUU. The book will be provided by the Northwest Regional Professional Development Program.
