Research in Education

Ministry of Education Presentations to the 2008 Annual Conference of the Canadian Society for the Study of Education (CSSE)

Educational scholars from across Canada gathered in Vancouver in June 2008 to discuss educational issues under the theme "Thinking Beyond Borders: Global Ideas, Global Values". Ministry staff was there, too, to learn from others, and to share the research and evidence we are using to: i) improve student achievement; ii) reduce gaps in achievement; and iii) increase public confidence in public education.
