Public school students will take their online learning one step further this fall in a new curriculum allowing them to have their digital projects assessed in the real world. Beyond existing initiatives around digital literacy in the classroom, from instructional YouTube videos to assignments done on PowerPoint, the Calgary Board of Education will encourage students to complete certain projects digitally and then send them to the private sector for feedback. “This will be a great opportunity to work with different experts in the field,” said Cathy Faber, superintendent of learning innovation and chief information officer.
