ResearchED T.O. 2017 - Part 2

For those not familiar with the ResearchED movement, you may want to familiarize yourself with it.

I'm providing a couple links here which explains a bit about the movement, and why we need this to come to Western Canada.  We had a terrific weekend in Toronto, meeting many educators, researchers, and parents, who were there for one reason:  to determine the best way to teach in the classroom.  Imagine...an education conference which upholds, and discusses empirical evidence, and best practices.

Hoping you might take the time to read through these, and please...watch this recent TVO episode featuring Susan Douglas, CEO of Eden Academy in England. She tells it as it is.  I was fortunate to hear her speak at the Opening Panel Discussion on Friday evening...what an absolute pleasure!

I look forward to another ResearchED event and really appreciated the camaraderie and expertise that everyone brought to this session over the weekend.

Thanks everyone!
