abstract = {This interview-based study aimed to understand how teachers make sense of their work and themselves in relation to artificial intelligence (AI) and other digital technologies, and was conceived as a means of learning with and from teachers. Navigating recent AI developments raised questions about thinking, creativity, production, and the meaning and value of humanity, along with more practical concerns regarding instruction and assessment. Creating policy and ongoing teacher education opportunities that recognize teachers’ capacities for professional judgement while also providing support would encourage thoughtful and creative uses of AI, and avoid pressuring teachers to thoughtlessly rush forward with AI implementation.},

abstract = {Creative thinking, problem-solving and inquiry skills are primary goals of teaching and learning. This paper reports on the development of an authentic performance assessment in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), Falling Skies!, built around an ecological, inquiry-based problem \textendash where students are presented with the issue of a mass mortality event and are challenged to investigate why this happened. Assessment for Learning in Immersive Virtual Environments (ALIVE; alivelab.ca) is a research program that examines how game-based 3D immersive virtual environments (3DIVEs), as assessments for learning, aren designed to enable students to regulate their science inquiry abilities in real-time. Specifically, this project explores the use of 3DIVEs to provide feedback through the formative assessment of inquiry reasoning in the context of middle school life science. Ultimately, the ALIVE project aims to contribute empirical evidence of how students conduct complex logic, assisting them to become better self-regulated learners, thus providing a sense of personal agency, efficacy, and opportunity necessary to participate in STEM careers.},

abstract = {Agency is inherent in students’ ability to regulate, control, and monitor their own learning. A learners’ effectiveness in regulating their cognitive, affective, and behavioural processes as they interact within the learning environment is critical to their academic success. This article advances a theory of learner agency, or agency for learning (AFL), as an emergent capacity that is intentional, self-generated, and reactive to social factors in the learning context. This article further traces the development of the Agency for Learning Questionnaire (AFLQ) and examines the internal consistency, predictive validity, and psychometric properties covering four dimensions of agentic functioning including intentionality (planfulness, decision competence), forethought (intrinsic and extrinsic motivation), self-regulation, and self-efficacy. The results of this research demonstrate that the AFLQ provides a reliable, valid, multidimensional measure of AFL based on existing theoretical and empirical findings, advancing both theory and practice. Understanding how agency develops and emerges within learning environments is a key factor in identifying why learning occurs enabling educational psychologists to potentially identify, measure, and study agentic processes in the context of learning across a variety of research designs.},
