The day is scheduled as two half-day workshops with a 30-minute health break during each workshop and a 1-hour lunch break between sessions. (Session 1 - 9am - 12 Noon. & Session 2: 1 - 4pm.) All students registered in the B.Ed program are to choose two sessions from the options listed on the website, one for each time slot. Session descriptions and the link to register can be found on our UM Education page: Faculty of Education | University of Manitoba (umanitoba.ca)<https://umanitoba.ca/education/> in the main banner area. You have until November 1st to register - but don't wait, there are limited spaces available. If you are unable to register for a particular workshop, don't despair, most sessions will be offered again on January 8, 2024. Registration for the January B.Ed Program Day will open in early December to ensure you have time before the break to register. Students taking field trips with their classes in November do no have to register for the November Program Day but will register for sessions when the January form opens. As with all Professional Learning Days hosted by the Faculty, attendance will be noted by the session speakers. You will not have to enter your attendance, as this is not considered a practicum day but a professional learning day for all enrolled B.Ed students.

by Faculty of Education Office of the Dean 19 Oct '23

19 Oct '23

Reminder, please join Dr. Lucy Fowler from the Faculty of Education virtually TODAY on October 19, 2023 - 12 - 1 pm as part of the Indigenous Scholars Speaker Series. ***Shared on behalf of Dr. Cary Miller, Vice-President (Indigenous)*** The Office of the Vice-President Indigenous hosts a speaker series featuring Indigenous scholars at the University of Manitoba. These talks highlight the research and expertise of Indigenous scholars, while providing new opportunities for students, staff and faculty to learn about Indigenous perspectives and knowledges. On October 19th we will be highlighting Dr. Lucy Fowler who will be doing a talk titled “Situating my Scholarship: Tensions and Possibilities in Metis Academic and Community Work”. Dr. Lucy Fowler shared that as a Métis educator, academic, and community organizer, her work is centered on her people. Research and scholarship situated in community has unique benefits and challenges that are not possible in work that is separate from community members. In this talk, Dr. Fowler will share some of her own academic journey, including the co-creation of Métis specific academic work alongside other Métis scholars, on-going research consultations with Métis peoples, and what she sees as wise practices for community-engaged scholarship.
