    To Whom It May Concern:
    The Education Undergraduate Society arranges and provides Professional Development
    workshops for education students at the University of Lethbridge. This letter is written at the
    request of Amanda High who attended the following seminars from September to November of 2015:
    Wednesday September 16th: Carly Sharpe: "Stress Management"
    A presentation focused on learning tools and strategies to manage stress and increase happiness
    and flourishing
    Wednesday September 23rd: Lance Grigg: "How to teach a controversial issue without
    becoming one."
    Teaching controversial issues can be a useful way of nurturing critical thinking, critical inquiry
    and responsible citizenship. Difficulties, however, can arise. For example, unintentionally, we
    can say or do something that makes us the focus of the controversy rather than the issue itself. In
    this session, we'll explore ways of teaching about a controversial issue without becoming one. A
    handout will be provided for participants.
    Thursday October 15th: Brayden Wirzba: "Teaching on a Hutterite Colony: a world of
    opportunities"
    Scattered across southern Alberta there are small hubs of educational activity happening in the
    unique communities of the Hutterites. Teaching on a colony is like entering a world not like the
    one you and I are used to. In this session, we will explore what everyday teaching on a colony
    looks like, some pedagogical techniques specific to colony teaching, and some of the joys which
    come from teaching on a colony.
    Tuesday October 27th: Marian Biggins and Sue Bengry: "What About Those Exceptional
    Kids?"
    At this session, students will learn about the information you should gather if you have concerns
    about a student's learning, and the resources available when you have a student with a disability
    in your class.
    Wednesday October 28th: Carmen Mombourquette: What About Boys?
    This session focuses on boys and their apparent lack of academic success in school.

    Wednesday November 4th: Kurtis Hewson: Personal Learning Networks - Twitter and
    Beyond
    With the vast amount of information available to us online how do we find and maintain
    meaningful networks for resource sharing and professional development?
    If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact me at edu.eus@uleth.ca
    or at (403) 329-2442.
    Sincerely,

    Amber Mackintosh
    Director of Professional Development
    Education Undergraduate Society
    University of Lethbridge
