The Curriculum Redesign Symposium in Calgary was held this week. Many teachers, students, parents, administrators and board members from across the province met to discuss the proposed Curriculum Redesign and to evaluate progress made so far. It was a hopeful and inspiring time. There are a lot of teachers in Alberta doing a lot of work towards identifying what (perhaps) the new curriculum should look like, and how future prototyping processes might work. If you visit the Inspired Curriculum website at http://inspiredcurriculum.ca/content/resources you can review the deliverables that were discussed and see new versions as they become available in the next week or so. You can watch an explanation of their Draft Graphic Organizer: What are some ways teachers and schools are attempting to redesign education? Here are a few quick introductions.
