Abstract
This project will serve to underline specific shifts in pedagogy that the government of Alberta is mandating schools to adopt. It will use educational research to compare and contrast the value of shifting pedagogy in the classroom to cater to the new 21st century learner in the classroom. It will also use personal experiences in my professional context to lay out a pseudo plan of action for appropriate adoption of studied shifts in order to foster a supportive cultural community of both teachers and students. The goal of the project is to determine a proper course of implementation at the local level, with hopes to expand this application across my school district.
