Benefits of Improved Self-Efficacy in Recreation Activity Leadership Students
Recreation leaders must be creative and adaptable to lead in todays’ evolving communities. Thematic reviews of reflections on a video-recorded leadership activity highlighted differences in self-efficacy between being prepared to lead an activity and being prepared as a recreation activity leader. Study variables, including prior experience, self-efficacy and preparedness, influenced both the focus and impact of student learning. Educator use of authentic in-class activities to build preparatory self-efficacy increased self-confidence, reduced anxiety and improved adaptability.

Champlain College Millennium Certificate Program: Technology Supported Pedagogical Expansion
The Champlain College Millennium Certificate Program invites interested students to have a positive impact on a critical issue of our time. This program operates outside of the standard academic calendar and involves many faculty mentors and experiential projects. The administration of the program was a challenge until the implementation of an independent platform, powered by Linkr, enabling participants to easily collaborate and share and making facilitation easy for mentors and program administrators.
Presenters: Amanda Perry and Gabriel Flacks
The Relationship Between Chinese Students’ Well-being and Mathematics in PISA 2018
This study investigates how student well-being affects mathematics achievement in Chinese students in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2018. This study used the forced-entry multiple linear regression to explore the variance in mathematics achievement. It found that 18% of the variance in mathematics achievement could be explained by the model consisting of well-being indicators. The results could inform the development of student well-being models and provide insights for improving student learning outcomes.

Humanities , Champlain Regional College, Saint-LambertHello! I’m Gabriel Flacks. I’m a Humanities Teacher and Department Coordinator at Champlain College, Saint-Lambert, Head of Education and co-founder of linkr (linkreducation.com), Cognitive Scientist, and “Musician.”
Since 2006 I’ve been a Humanities Teacher at Champlain College Saint-Lambert, Montreal, Quebec, and since 2013, I’ve served as Department Chair. During my career at Champlain, I’ve spent many hours working with students in active learning and blended learning contexts.
To that end, I’ve also been developing (with a wonderful team) a space and community to support global and local teacher and student collaboration since 2012, culminating in the dozens of countries and hundreds of institutions using linkr to facilitate active learning with computers as part of a global educational network.
I’ve been enjoying Saltise over the last few years and am happy to be a part of the Saltise community!
