The 糖心vlog官方入口鈥檚 Winter鈥檚 Tales Reading Series and Charlottetown鈥檚 independent bookstore, The Bookmark, are pleased to present an evening with Nova Scotia writer Ami McKay, discussing her new book, Daughter of Family G: A Memoir of Cancer Genes, Love and Fate. The event will take place Thursday, November 7, at 7 pm at the Confederation Centre Art Gallery, 145 Richmond St, Charlottetown. This is a free event, and everyone is invited. 

Weaving together family history, genetic discovery, and scenes from her life, McKay tells the compelling, true-science story of her family鈥檚 unsettling legacy of hereditary cancer while exploring the challenges that come from carrying the mutation that not only killed many people she loved but might also kill her. 

McKay is the author of three internationally bestselling novels: The Birth House, The Virgin Cure, and The Witches of New York. She began her writing career as a freelance radio journalist and in 2001 wrote and produced an award-winning radio documentary, also called 鈥淒aughter of Family G,鈥� which traced her decision to undergo genetic testing. Born and raised in Indiana, McKay now lives in Nova Scotia. For further information, please contact Lee Ellen Pottie at lpottie@upei.ca. 

The 糖心vlog官方入口 will host Dr. Francisco Dallmeier, director of the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute鈥檚 Center for Conservation and Sustainability, when he visits Prince Edward Island next week to give a talk on Climate Change Impacts on Biodiversity.  

The public lecture will take place at 7 pm on Thursday, November 7, at the Dr. Roddie Community Centre, 5549 St. Peter鈥檚 Road in St. Peter鈥檚 Bay, where 糖心vlog官方入口's Canadian Centre for Climate Change and Adaptation is being built. 

He is visiting the 糖心vlog官方入口 to discuss future collaborations in teaching and research between the 糖心vlog官方入口 School of Climate Change and Adaptation and the Smithsonian Institute. For more information, visit . 

All are welcome to attend Dr. Kathy Snow's presentation arising from her research with co-author, Diane Obed, on Inuit student persistence and success.  This research will also be presented to funders, fellow researchers, and community members at the ArcticNet Annual General Meeting in December of this year.

McGregor (2010) in Inuit Education and Schools in the Eastern Arctic, describes what Inuit believe are the differences between formal and informal learning by outlining the meaning of the words ilisayuaq  and isumaqsayuaq. Isumaqsayuq is the traditional way of sharing knowledge through observation and imitation embedded in daily family and community life learning. Fundamentally based in the principals of  Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit,  isumaqsavuq  which encompasses land-based learning is known to help promote language revival, cultural practices, and positive self and cultural identities that will sustain youth. Indigenous land-based education is viewed as not only a source of resistance against a capitalist settler state (Coulthard, 2015) it is also important for environmental stewardship, climate change adaptation (Watt-Cloutier, 2015), and most importantly, promoting and maintaining Inuit autonomy and sovereignty (Petrasek MacDonald, 2014; Price, 2007; Wildcat et al., 2014). However formal ilisavuaq learning for these same objectives in K-12 schools is challenged by funding and policy restrictions that make opportunities to 鈥済o off鈥� for youth in school more 鈥渟pecial events鈥� than inherent in education.  School districts across Inuit Nunangat are increasingly adopting land based programs, to inspire however it is still not enough to (re)balance ilisayuaq and isumaqsayuaq away from the dominating colonial education system to fully support a holistic education for all students

Branching scenarios and simulations are forms of online interactive learning content. They focus on decision making. They begin with some sort of context-specific story containing a problem to solve. The learner is given choices and is asked to make one. Each choice has a consequence which is the feedback that helps the learner to understand the value of the decision made. Each consequence produces new challenges and more choices. The result is that learners can practice making decisions and develop skills in a low-stakes environment. Simulations an branching scenarios are good lead-ups that prepare learners for real-world experiences they will have to face. Come learn some of the basics of getting started with this kind of content on Wednesday, November 20th from 10:30 to 11:30 am in Room 292 of the Robertson Library.

Learning is an action that only the student can own and control. As an instructor, what can be done to help support the development of student core skills? In this workshop, instructors will learn about three key skills that contribute to more efficient and effective learning. Those skills are how to take quality notes, how to read for learning, and how to study effectively. This workshop takes place on Wednesday, November 13th from 10:30 to 11:30 am in Room 265 of the Robertson Library.
