@RishaugNoah Congrats Noah, all the best to you in your new position. Can't wait to see some of your work popping up on screen and online.

I posted this just under 3 years ago. There are currently 10 videos (6 English, 4 French) covering 4 grades (4, 5, 6 and 9). The ineffectiveness of this ministry (@AlbertaEd) despite a change in minister continues to be reprehensible.

@corthor1971 @rdpschools @albertateachers @60Local It was a pleasure being able to join you. To all of the new teachers, may the rest of your years be amazing 🤩 remember you have lots of people ready to support you in any way that they can, including the @albertateachers

[Dan Coles @Coles_Notes_]

That is a wrap on #elac2024. Congratulations to the co-directors @kmcbean & @MandaBourassa on a job extremely well done. You have raised the bar for conferences. @ABELATeachers is so 🍀 to have you involved. All the best in the last couple of months of school. @albertateachers

This is what I know about the @albertaNDP leadership race. When it is over & there is a leader elected, the party will be stronger, the party will be together, & the party & its members will collectively fight against @ABDanielleSmith & the party will be the next @YourAlberta

@scottmccloud sometimes there are no words and no need for borders. #elac2024 @ABELATeachers @albertateachers

[Dan Coles @Coles_Notes_]

@scottmccloud is narrating his beautiful visual presentation of how pictures and words communicate with readers. Scott is the keynote for #elac2024 presented by @ABELATeachers

[Dan Coles @Coles_Notes_]

I loved an idea raised by @AnotherNisha. She discussed the idea that teachers who present joyful media can emancipate students.

Not every piece of media needs to be a teen trauma for young adults. More wonderful ideas 💡 from such a brilliant person.

@ABELATeachers #elac2024

[Dan Coles @Coles_Notes_]

@kmcbean (conference director) and @EPSBNews teacher asking @AnotherNisha to speak to “Disorderly Contexts,” the theme of @ABELATeachers conference. Nisha is so brilliant because she understands the humanity of all. #elac2024 @albertateachers

[Dan Coles @Coles_Notes_]

@AnotherNisha is sharing her thoughts and words with #ELAC2024 participants, a group of @ABELATeachers, members of the @albertateachers. Nisha’s poetry is engaging, insightful and certainly makes you go “hmm…” Thank you Nisha for your words and the imagery you create with them.

[Dan Coles @Coles_Notes_]

@BSmilanich has an audience so very engaged in his discussion on emerging texts and how to get kids writing. Brad is presenting at #elac2024 conference presented by @ABELATeachers. The pop culture references are hilarious. @albertateachers @jackblack #murdershewrote

[Dan Coles @Coles_Notes_]

Not every @AlbertaEd ELA outcome is shown based on a product, but can be observed. Courtney Steiner sharing observation checklists based on work of @Sandra_Herbst. Courtney described it as a “game changer.” @elac2024 @ABELATeachers
