The Master of Education in Educational Studies - Indigenous Education Cohort supports Indigenous teachers and school leaders who have graduated from the Aboriginal Teacher Education Program (ATEP), and other Indigenous educators. You can be a change advocate, supporting robust learning communities at every level and in every community, enriching a culture of informed practice.
Over the course of two years, in part-time study, you will develop educational research skills and learn to apply them in your educational context.
To optimize the learning experience, students in this cohort will be taught primarily by Indigenous faculty, focusing on Indigenous pedagogies and research methodologies. Courses are provided in a blended delivery format - summer in-person at the U of A and remaining courses online (with synchronous components).
