Meaning-making through multiple modes of literacy. So crucial. Marrying this with cross-curricular and experienced-based learning might add another layer. #Cohort21#CITE2019
“Meaning-making is just a way to move through the world, so you just use the forms available to you.” - @garybarwin during the panel discussion at @CIS_CITE#CITE2019
So many cool ideas coming out of a session with @trollwag at @CIS_CITE about the new initiative @CanadaExplores, which will aim to give students an authentic audience with whom to share life-changing stories and experiences #CITE2019
Making connections in literacy and media literacy through mathematics and nature and...wait for it...DJing. Emerging @NatGeo explorer @djspooky describes his thoughts on modern creativity. Fascinating. #CITE2019#CanadaExplores
Our own @trollwag announcing his amazing "Canada Explores" as his own side-hustle! HMW engage students in non-fiction writing and experiential learning? #Cohort21
Happy #NunavutDay! 20 years ago today, #Nunavut became Canada's 3rd territory. A place that all Canadians should visit. A people that all Canadians should seek to understand. (I took this photo in 2007, anyone recognize the location?)
@neilmorton@studio_ptbo Thinking that @canadaexplores is going to become a reality over the next year. Hoping to share adventures and inspire youth across the country through literacy and sharing their story.
Please give @canadaexplores a follow. I will be seeking dynamic and enthusiastic educators to pilot a project this year in hopes to build an organization that inspires youth through adventure, writing, and storytelling across Canada. #Cohort21#LCSLearns
