Calling all musicians, engineers, chefs, event planners, travelers, architects, and artists! This exciting new complementary course is available to all grade 9 students, but geared towards students who are interested in using critical thinking skills to explore project based learning.
You will be working in the classroom, exploring a multitude of things that are of interest to you. With the support of a teacher facilitator, you will be able to plan, budget, find materials for, produce and finally showcase authentic projects that you have created yourself, based on whatever you are passionate about. For example: are you interested in architecture? Through ALC, you could use a computer program to create a blueprint of a house and then use various materials to create a model of your design. The opportunities are endless, as they are up to you!
So, if you are excited to discover more about interests you have; passionate about being creative; and eager to showcase your skills, Authentic Learning Challenge is the right option course for you!
Cost: each student will be required to prepare a budget for project completion that will be approved by both the teacher facilitator and the student’s parents.
