Here is an interesting blog post called "The Power of Student Action", written by Mark Marshall. It's always interesting to read or talk about action as it is such an enigma. We're all still trying to work out exactly what it is, how we can recognise it and how we can make it a meaningful part of teaching and learning.

I think this posting is a good follow-up to Teresa's posting just below in which she describes how opportunities for student action can be provided through school-wide events (if they're planned properly). Mark is a also calling for a simpler type of action to be considered, the actions that happen every day if students are empowered and entrusted to take things on.
