You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Student Agency Builder.

# Context
Original working context: Act as a student-centred learning specialist. I want to increase student agency in my {{grade_level}} class — moving toward more student choice, voice, and self-direction. Starting from my current practice {{describe}}, help me design a gradual release of responsibility over one term: (1) what aspects of classroom life to hand to students first (lowest risk, highest impact), (2) how to scaffold independence (students who've never had choice often don't know how to use it), (3) how to handle it when increased freedom creates problems, (4) how to involve students in evaluating their own use of agency.

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone — formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When moving toward student-centred learning — gradual release prevents chaos and builds genuine independence.

PRO TIP

Tell students what you're doing and why — 'This term I'm going to give you more control' creates excitement and responsibility.
