A Curriculum Design Framework for Critical Action Learning

June 03, 2024 | 2:45 - 3:45 PM Concordia University - Henry F. Hall Building Montreal, Mezzanine

We present an international network of Professional Learning Communities where educators design and enact new forms of curriculum for Critical Action Learning (CAL). CAL curriculum empowers students as transformative agents when facing socio-environmental issues (i.e., climate change, social justice, pandemics, economic inequality, etc.) that affect themselves and their communities. We present diverse elements of this project, with a particular focus on a design framework that facilitates the design of CAL curricula.
