Reimagine Education in Regina

Authors

  • Whitney Danielle Blaisdell

Abstract

This manuscript addresses some of the problems in the current structure for teaching in Regina schools, and proposes various solutions, including a flipped-classroom model. The author argues that students and teachers alike would benefit from a school schedule that included more independent learning, alowing a shorter, richer, in-school experience.
