Public Education Must Change, Canadian Province Says (Video)
on August 16, 2010
Policy & Technology
Learning today must center around the student and be accessible anytime, anywhere. That's the message that the New Brunswick Education Department is sending to its schools in a video posted on YouTube this year.
"We must keep pace and stay relevant to keep students engaged."
And a number of the schools in the Canadian province are changing, but all of them need to change, the video says. They're studying the onset of spring with classes around the world. They're challenging speakers about issues as they happen globally. And they're using technology to access content, demonstrate mastery and publish their work.
Check out the video to learn more about the shift (hat tip to George Couros for sharing it on Twitter).
