THIS WEEK: Labour history will be 'Front and Centre' at the BC Federation of Labour Regional Conference in #PrinceGeorgeBC. Friday we hit the streets with seldom heard stories of the workers who built the city, shaped its unions, and fought for their rights. #bclab #bchist

Great lesson hook for #bced Social Studies teachers. Put image on screen when students arrive. When they’re settled, follow with a couple of news clips on fires in Western Canada and start asking questions. Establish context, explore cause & consequence, consider responses etc.

BC has declared a drought-related state of emergency. www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/dr… Biome shifting in BC will not be gradual, but rather marked by dramatic episodes: storms & floods, drought & fires. We need revisions across the #bced curriculum to elevate Climate Education.

We appologize for any difficulty being experienced by our online conference attendees. At this point we are being told the network connection is down across all PSAs. We are working to restore the connection as quickly as possible.

BCSSTA (@bcssta) 's Twitter Profile Photo

The provider for streaming services for all PSAs is working to fix the connectivity issues. BCSSTA is recording the keynote presentation, and we will let you know as soon as we have a solution. Thank you for your patience.

Between an unexpected venue change, the event software crashing, and a few other hiccups, we’re still so grateful for the amazing presenters, c. 200 in-person attendees, c. 400 online attendees, student helpers, and all the folks who helped bring the Fall conference together.
