CyberAcademy with Cyberlegends

This training aims to strengthen school staff’s knowledge and skills in digital citizenship, online safety, and cybersecurity. It introduces the educational resources and interactive tools available on the Cyberlegends platform, which can be used to teach students safe, responsible, and ethical behavior in digital environments. Topics covered include the protection of personal information, the prevention of cyberbullying, the critical evaluation of online information, and the development of healthy digital habits.

The Basics of Understanding Emotional, Sexual, and Gender Diversity: Choosing Our Words Carefully to Promote Respect and Inclusion (Franco-queer)

This workshop aims to build knowledge about emotional, sexual, and gender diversity. Participants will learn about the main components of this diversity, including sex assigned at birth, gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientations. The workshop also provides an overview of the identities represented by the acronym 2SLGBTQIA+, the flags associated with the various communities, and principles related to respecting self-identification. Presented in an informative and accessible manner, this workshop helps participants better understand the terminology used and promotes inclusive and respectful practices.

Framework Programs

This workshop will provide an opportunity to review the implementation of the “Read Once, Read Forever!” resource for staff working with students from kindergarten through 2nd grade. Participants will also learn about initiatives related to the Eco-Schools program, as well as coding and robotics activities using LEGO designed to develop computational thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills in students. A hands-on exploration session will allow staff to familiarize themselves with the resources.

Student Success Plan (PRÉ)

This time will allow school staff to analyze the various available data in order to develop a comprehensive picture of student success, identify priority goals, and pinpoint effective instructional strategies. This collaborative approach will help guide initiatives that promote the success, well-being, and personal growth of every student.
