Professional Responsibility
“On the two school days of your assigned teachers’ convention, you have a legal and professional responsibility to attend convention. If you are not able to make it safely to your assigned convention, however, your collective agreement may include impassable roads or inclement weather clauses that you can access. If your collective agreement does not include language specific to road conditions or weather, you may make use of the personal leave clauses of your agreement in most cases. Please be aware that using any of these types of leave may require you to pay substitute costs, forego a portion of your salary and benefits, or report to your school or another work location in your district. Refer to your collective agreement for more information. Should you require any additional information or if you need assistance interpreting your collective agreement, please contact Teacher Employment Services at 1-800-232-7208 or 780-447-9400.”

Note: the following session would be presented in French specifically for the francophone association:

Plusieurs programmes d'études des sciences humaines au Canada intègrent un cadre conceptuel tiré des travaux de Peter Seixas et Tom Morton sur les 6 concepts de la pensée historique (https://histoirereperes.ca/les-six-concepts). En revanche, il n'existe aucun cadre conceptuel équivalent pour les cours de français langue première ou français langue seconde. Comment une approche conceptuelle pourrait-elle nous permettre de développer une vision beaucoup plus ambitieuse et optimiste de ce que les élèves peuvent faire, être et accomplir en apprenant le français? Cet atelier présentera un cadre de 6 approches à la langue, qui sont:

- historisante
-fondée sur le lieu
-fondée sur une compréhension des droits
-soulignant la production de sens comme l'effet d'une négociation consensuelle
-prônant la résilience communicative,
-ludique et célébratoire

À travers une série de récits et d'exemples concrets, l'atelier argumentera que l'intégration d'un tel cadre conceptuel nous permet non seulement de répondre à nos engagements en matière d'éducation autochtonisée, anti-raciste, anti-oppressive et SOGI-inclusif , mais également de créer une expérience d'apprentissage inspirante, voire émancipatrice, pour nos jeunes.
