EducationMatters is proud to announce that ConocoPhillips will continue to be the title sponsor of the Innovation Incubator in the 2020-21 school year!
The Innovation Incubator provides Calgary Board of Education (CBE) teachers with professional development opportunities, specifically created to increase their design thinking capabilities. The Incubator focuses on developing new skills in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM), enabling teachers to incorporate innovative ideas and teaching tools into every lesson they plan and execute.
For teachers participating in the 2019-20 cohort, the experience has changed the way they approach their role in the classroom, and opened up a new world of learning for their students. Teacher feedback from the program has been amazing:
The Innovation Incubator is such a valuable resource for CBE teachers and students. Thanks to ConocoPhillips, CBE classrooms are constantly evolving, incorporating new ideas, and providing students with opportunities to learn in their own way and at their own pace. This is an investment in innovation, learning, and the future, and we can’t wait to see what new ideas emerge next year.
