Designing For Agency

A Seismic Event.A Choice. Your True NorthWe stand at a philosophical fork in the road. The arrival of AI is not an incremental update; it is a seismic event that forces every leader to answer a fundamental question: What is the purpose of education?.Drawing on John Dewey's experiential wisdom, Margaret Chadwick famously stated, "Pioneering must be present in every school that is striving to meet the changing conditions of life".This playbook is for the pioneers ready to choose the Path of Agency over the Path of Control. Authors Dion Norman, Nick Garvin, and Mike Pelletier provide a comprehensive "macro-to-micro" blueprint to transform your institution. Through the RISE institutional model, the AGENCY pedagogical framework, and the PROMPT tactical interface, this book helps you stop protecting the "film" of outdated procedures and start teaching the "photographer". It is time to clear the noise, reinvest the "AI Dividend" into human connection, and align your strategy with your school's True North-your Mission, Vision, and Core Values.
