Blending theory with real-world applications, the book demonstrates how learner and teacher agency are deeply interconnected, showing how collaboration, technology and reflective practices create more dynamic, student-centred classrooms. The first author's action research project provides practical insights, illustrating how agency can be fostered in both in-person and blended learning environments. Readers will also gain valuable perspectives from other teachers, who share how reflective practice has helped them improve their own agency, as well as their students' engagement and independence.
Educators, teacher educators and researchers across disciplines will find this book indispensable for its evidence-based strategies, offering actionable approaches to fostering agency, collaboration and professional development in today's rapidly evolving educational landscape.
