Workshop 4 - Flexible Pathways

Module

Self advocacy...required for a student to be able to create a path

Transferable Skills

Equity
- do all students have the opportunity?
- flexible pathways should not be limited to extension activities

We must prepare them for the opportunities at the secondary level

Structures
- PLP exploration  - My Next Move
- Geography section - mapping places they have been in the curriculum and where they have been or would like to go
- Digital Citizenship - managing their time on line
  - equity issues need to be considered here as well
- Curriculum Development
  - multiple pieces of evidence opportunities needed

Inviting community partners in and ask them to talk about how they got to that job - teaching pathways
  - this is a nice twist on having "experts" into the classroom

The biggest takeaway for me was the idea of equity...keeping that in mind at all times so that students have equal chances at learning and the expression of it.
