  text: '<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>In this symposium we investigate
    students’ agency of selecting and using (digital) resources for developing their
    own learning paths. For that, we first review the literature related to students’
    selection and use of resources in mathematics education in different pedagogical
    settings (presentation 1). Second, we develop insights from the different studies
    that participate in this symposium (presentation 2–6), at school as well as at
    university level. Results show that attempts have been made to provide students
    opportunities to develop agency of their mathematics learning, in particular with
    the development and provision of numerous digital tools and learning resources
    at university level and related to innovative pedagogical approaches. At the same
    time, it is not obvious how these tools and resources help students to develop
    deeper conceptual understandings. Certainly, students often ‘demand’ more student-centered
    and autonomous education approaches (e.g., at university level), also in mathematics
    education. Further, it seems that authentic problem-based education approaches
    are more motivating for students. These ‘innovative’ approaches necessitate particular
    types of structure and support for students. Moreover, they require different
    ways of providing resources that students can and want to interact with, and that
    help students to navigate through the curriculum to develop their own learning
    paths. At the same time, teachers also need support on how to orchestrate student
    learning with the available resources in such environments, so to be able to attend
    to students’ individual needs. The symposium comprised altogether six presentations:</jats:p><jats:p>Birgit
