An open letter from the University of Calgary’s HOPELab, led by Dr. Deinera Exner-Cortens, expressing concerns about the draft Physical Education and Wellness curriculum.
In less than three months since Alberta’s draft K-6 curriculum’s release, educators across the country have released a torrent of criticism levelled at the social studies portion of the curriculum. More apparent to me however is how the curricular narratives construct not only a racialized and exclusionary Albertan “we”, but how that “we” also carries with it gendered intonations.
