Curriculum and Learning Technologies (CLT) is a newly formed department within “Learning Enhancement” designed to provide service and support to Calgary Board of Education staff to meet the outcomes of the CBE Three Year Education Plan and System ENDS.
Professional Learning
We personalize and facilitate professional learning throughout the organization to address the needs of each learner. We do this by meeting and exceeding expectations and requirements within the Alberta Program of Studies through the use and development of distributed learning environments, tools, and new ways of working with learning technologies and the work of the “Learning Lab of the Future” CBe-learn.
Innovative Learning
CLT supports and leads models of best practice and innovation in 21st century learning by:
- working each day with educators within their specific context to address identified learner needs
