Making It Meaningful: Historical Thinking Concepts and the Alberta Social Studies Curriculum
“Making It Meaningful: Historical Thinking Concepts and the Alberta Social Studies Curriculum” was held at Mount Royal University (MRU) on February 14, 2013. Building upon the success of the two previous conferences held in 2011 and 2012, this is the third annual event hosted by MRU in conjunction with the Calgary City Teachers’ Convention with the support of THEN/HiER. The one-day History teaching conference was a resounding success, attracting seventy participants, the majority of whom were elementary, junior and high school Social Studies teachers from Calgary. Education students from MRU also attended, as did MRU faculty members and student volunteers.
