Summary
The UxD approach provides opportunities and support for young people to develop their own sense of agency when facing uncertainty in their own learning and lives. When designing UxD experiences for students, it is important to understand that not all forms of uncertainty are the same. Some are more easily resolvable. Others require focused effort and support. And still other forms of uncertainty may never be resolvable. The purpose of this chapter is to provide an overview of the nature of uncertainty and the different types of uncertainty students (and we all) encounter in learning and life.
