Program Description

Program Delivery: This two-year cohort program operates through a blended delivery format that allows study at a distance. Three two to three-week face-to-face summer institutes in Anti-Racist Education, Place and Socio-ecological Experience, and Ecology and Wisdom will be offered in the summers of 2011, 2012, and 2013. Fall and winter semesters in 2011/12 and 2012/13 include one online course per semester that can be taken at a distance. This is a course-based masters involving 10 three-credit courses in total.

Experiential Learning: The degree includes a strong focus on experiential learning, with two of the three Summer Institutes offered off campus. The Place and Socio-ecological Experience Summer Institute will include a week-long Urban Education course focused in Saskatoon’s Core and other downtown Neighborhoods, and a week-long Land-based Education course on a Saskatchewan river. The Ecology and Wisdom Summer Institute will also be largely experiential and will be held at the Kenderdine Arts and Ecology Centre at Emma Lake. Some online courses will also include self-directed experiential components.
