AUDIENCE: GRADES K-12 LEARNING COMMONS LEAD TEACHERS, TEACHER-LIBRARIANS, LIBRARY TECHNICIANS, TEACHERS, SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS, AND DISTRICT LEADS/COACHES ARE ENCOURAGED TO ATTEND.

The school library learning commons can provide collaborative whole school leadership in fostering and supporting school wide implementation of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action for Education. From developing resource collections to whole school community co-creation of cultural literacy, learning commons leadership can have a significant impact in moving Calls to Action for education forward within schools. Over a series of 4 webinars, participants see how this is occurring in examples from schools demonstrating successful learning commons leadership for growing First Nation, Métis and Inuit ways of knowing and learning. The webinars include opportunity for online discussion with guests leading this work, presenting models and follow-up activities for others to emulate along with sharing key resources that support the work and their own professional growth in leading it. ARPDC – EFR resources will be highlighted within this webinar series.

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