SoundOut consulted the Student Engagement Initiative at the Alberta Ministry of Education in Edmonton throughout 2010 and 2011.
Teaching the Ministry staff about our Frameworks for Meaningful Student Involvement, SoundOut staff consulted them on next steps and possibilities for the initiative. We shared an extensive student engagement research review, and detailed international best practices for them from the US, the UK, and Australia.
In 2011, SoundOut Founding Director Adam Fletcher keynoted at the annual SpeakOut Conference for 700 students, teachers, administrators, and Dave Hancock, the Minister of Education.
