Canadian Council on Learning | Conseil Canadien sur l'Apprentissage

The Aboriginal Learning Knowledge Centre was a sponsor and contributor to the Saskatchewan Ministry of Education initiative, A First Nations and Métis Education Promising Practices Symposium. This symposium was an opportunity for school divisions and respective partners to share promising practices that support improved outcomes for all learners with emphasis on First Nations and Métis youth.

Promising practices may include initiatives such as: representative workforce initiatives, initiatives and projects that align with Continuous Improvement plans, qualitative and quantitative data collection, instruction/curriculum materials, and other inquiry-based projects that support promising practices exemplified in current research.

The Aboriginal Learning Knowledge Centre and the Canadian Council on Learning offered presentations on ‘redefining success in Aboriginal learning’ and the cumulative work of the six Animation Theme Bundles who have been providing leadership in uncovering promising practices and research gaps in Aboriginal learning.
