The Power of Student Agency with Dr. Anindya Kundu

Meet Dr. Anindya Kundu, a sociologist who loves thinking about how people can succeed despite various challenges. In 2020, his TED Talk ranked in the Top 5 !

In this podcast episode, we discuss how to close the opportunity gap and more!

How can we promote the learning and well-being of all students, especially those who come from some of the most disadvantaged backgrounds? We can fight against deeply rooted inequalities in the American educational system by harnessing student agency―each person’s unique capacity for positive change.

In 2020, Kundu's book, The Power of Student Agency, was published by Teachers College Press and endorsed by Dr. Pedro Noguera and Dr. Angela Duckworth, among other influential scholars and practitioners. It was a 2021 Association of American Publishers PROSE Award (Professional and Scholarly Excellence) Finalist.

Dr. Kundu is an assistant professor of educational leadership at Florida International University, College of Arts, Sciences and Education (CASE).
