Overview
Student consults are specific students that apply to "consult" teachers on the learning experience.
This can occur in a panel or conferencing format.
The student shares the responsibility to provide feedback and generate ideas on activities and classroom experience.
The consultant meets with the teacher weekly to reflect and discuss the following week's practices.
Consulting topics may include...
Engagement
Student Learning
Curriculum
Assessment
Consultation may also include specific dilemmas that a teacher is currently facing. The teacher may request a student or group of students to work their a dilemma from the lens of a learner.

Connection
If the need is connection then the student may work with a younger set of students and a specific teacher. This may be combined with a strategy such as check in/check out.
Skills Training
If the need is skill building then the student may be put into a situation where they implement a specific skill during their consulting time.
Awareness
If the need is awareness then the student may be supporting the adult with an awareness of the student perspective.
Emotional Regulation
If the need is regulation then the student may be asked to consult at times of challenge throughout the day. This may be combined with scheduled breaks.
