How Teachers and Leaders Can Build the Bridge to Student Ownership (Tanya Bosco)
In 2025, great teaching isn’t about delivering content — it’s about curating it, unleashing student curiosity, and building true student efficacy.But here’s the twist: teachers can’t foster efficacy if leaders are still ferry-captains instead of bridge-builders.In my latest conversation with Tanya Bosco (Chief Strategy Officer at IDE Corp), we unpack the leadership mindset shifts from her new book Students Taking Charge: Implementation Guide for Leaders. We covered: 🔹 The difference between student engagement, empowerment, and efficacy 🔹 How an efficacy notebook transforms learning ownership 🔹 Why leaders must shift from dissemination → conversation 🔹 How to avoid “surface innovation” traps 🔹 What future-powered classrooms actually look and feel like 🔹 And the big one: why real transformation should feel like joyIf we want students who believe “I can change the world,” we need schools designed for it — from the classroom up and the leadership down.
