Advisory Committees

Fall 2010 Consultation

In September, the members of the eight ERLC Advisory Committees were asked to reflect on the question:

What will I accept as evidence that implementation is occurring?

The question stems from our collective desire for continuous improvement around all we can do to support implementation and the questions frequently posed around the value/impact of professional development.

A compilation of what each Advisory committee shared is available in the "Dot" display at the ERLC office and included in the meeting summary.

Dots What will I accept as evidence that implementation is occurring? What will I accept as evidence that implementation is occurring?

This wordle highlights the most frequently shared comments around "What will I accept as evidence that implementation is occurring?". This wordle implies—based on our perception—that teacher practice and student demonstration of learning were most often shared as examples of "evidence of implementation".

Additional "support for implementation" comes when we gather together to share stories and lessons learned and through the Essential Conditions to Support Implementation Guide - www.essentialconditions.ca.

About this Page

Advisory Committees provide opportunities for input and direction for ERLC professional development programs and plans. Advisory Committees address the following consortia goals:

  • To facilitate professional development which supports the effective implementation of:
    • Alberta Education Business Plan
    • Jurisdiction and School Education Plans, and
    • curricula, including instruction, assessment and student learning outcomes,
  • To promote and support the development of professional development leadership capacity.

Most importantly, Advisory Committees provide a venue for collaboration across the region, district to district. District representatives that attend meetings (most often curriculum coordinators and teacher leaders), share the most important part of the meeting is "district sharing" and networking. During this time, members learn about strategies to support implementation and further develop networks across the region.
