Resource-based Learning The teacher is: Accessing and using a variety of appropriate media and health resources. Arranging for guest speakers to align presentations with provincial health education curriculum outcomes to be achieved. Using current and appropriate Saskatchewan and Canadian data and information in relation to curriculum outcomes. Using contemporary technologies and processes to learn and to document understanding. Providing anti-oppressive and developmentally appropriate resources that allow all children to see “themselves”. Accessing resources that help children make informed personal choices.
Resources The teacher is: Using only one or two resource(s) as the basis for health education. Having a guest speaker present the same information to numerous grade levels rather than targeting grade level curriculum outcomes. Using a ‘packaged or canned’ resource as a primary resource with no perceived relation to the provincial health education curriculum. Inviting ‘one-shot wonders’ to present with no pre- or post-learning connected to grade level curriculum outcomes. Accessing and accepting isolated information at face value. Using resources aimed at persuading children that they must live a certain way regardless of current research or life situations.
