Summary
The purpose of this chapter is to highlight the centrality of children and young people in the learning process and identify educational approaches that emphasise the importance of ‘learner voice’. Opening avenues for consultation, participation and collaboration with learners in the design of curriculum, pedagogy and assessment can be significant in enhancing their engagement, achievement and wellbeing. That is, attention to the humanistic, agentic and cognitive attributes of learners, understanding their culture and lifeworlds, empowering learners to exercise agency and valuing their knowledge and skills contributes to the co-creation of meaningful learning experiences (Morrison et al., 2019; Price et al., 2020).
