Inspiring Education asked the question: What does an Educated Albertan look like 20 years from now? After much discussion and consultation around the transformation of education in our province, Alberta Education has been moving the agenda forward in regards to what students will be learning and the outcomes of this learning. After extensive research and hosting a series of Curriculum Roundtables, this activity culminated in the symposium, "Curriculum Design for Informed Transformation: Creating a Great School for Every Student."
A member of our executive was able to attend one of the roundtables and you can read this article that appeared in our newsletter last spring for more information.
Alberta Education is now providing another opportunity for public input on the "guiding principles for future curriculum design" through an online survey. Curriculum design would include items such as programs of study, assessment and educational resources. The deadline for participation is November 21.
