| dc.description.abstract | This project is a proposed strategic plan for districts, schools and individual teachers to aid in the successful implementation of 21st century competencies, specifically Critical Thinking, Problem Solving and Decision Making and Lifelong Learning, Personal Management and Well-being, while keeping in mind teacher workload. The proposed strategic plans allow for the breakdown of new initiatives into manageable goals, while keeping in mind government mandates and teacher attrition. Included is an exemplar plan for all levels and stakeholders who include the school district, schools and individual teachers. This was created in the wake of a mandate letter from Alberta Education (2010) which specified that teachers must teach students the competencies as well as the original curriculum, in all grades across all subject levels and grades. | en_US |
