There is more and more evidence that putting computers and tablets on students' desks (1:1 devices) was a terrible mistake. I agree with @AdamMGrant that "it's time to remove laptops [and tablets] from classrooms."

The research I involve myself in supports conditions for people to live well. Safe access to food, shelter, support, and movement included. Check out Makoyoi’sokoi: helping women in their movement goals. Working out daily is not an option for everyone.

“The way we organize our society, the extent to which we encourage interaction among the citizenry and the degree to which we trust and associate with each other in caring communities is probably the most important determinant of our health” (Lomas, 1998, p. 1181).

We feel the loss of the trailblazer Justice Murray Sinclair, an advocate and change-maker whose vision for Indigenous people must continue.
Pauktuutit honours his courageous wisdom and compassion as we strive to follow his lead and speak the truth, seek justice, and find healing.

@MyFacdev @fzaver @UCalgaryMed Congratulations!

The term “educate” comes from the Latin Educere, which means to draw out the unique Strengths and Passions within each student. When we focus on nurturing what’s already inside them, we help them unlock their true potential for success.
