Series Sessions

Date Time
Thursday, September 20, 2018 9:00 AM - 3:30 PM

In Person Sawridge Inn and Conference Centre 4235 Gateway Blvd, Edmonton, AB

AUDIENCE: GRADES K-12 PRINCIPALS, ASSISTANT PRINCIPALS, COACHES, TEACHERS AND INDIGENOUS LEADERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO ATTEND.

Developing and applying First Nation, Métis and Inuit Foundational Knowledge. What might these words mean to you? Join Sandra and Etienna for a guided conversation that will help you reflect on this statement from your perspective and your role within your school community.  We will work together to create a common understanding of what this might look like, as well as explore what valid and reliable evidence might be with respect to the professional quality standards (Teacher Quality Standard and the Leadership Quality Standard) or with students in classroom environments. 

In this full day session, you will be engaged in dynamic learning and conversations to deepen your awareness and understanding of:

  • parameters to establishing what quality and proficiency look like;
  • collecting evidence of learning; and
  • cycles of feedback.

Whether you have questions about how to lead classrooms, schools or systems to deep levels of implementation, or you have questions about ways in which quality assessment practices can be harnessed to demonstrate the development and application of Indigenous foundational knowledge, this session is for you!

Come prepared to inquire, talk, and reflect – on your own and with colleagues from across the province!

This learning opportunity is being offered through grant funding from Alberta Education.
