Prelude - A game of discovery and learning.

The Guidance-Oriented Approach to Learning

September 30, 2007

On September 28, Heliotrope presented Prelude to the Guidance-Oriented Approach to Learning (GOAL) Conference in Montreal. While the workshop audience was small in size, it was enthusiastic. GOAL is viewed by many as the final, integrating piece of the reform of Quebec’s curriculum for schools and centres. It supports the lifelong learning philosophy that career-life planning is a long-term personal commitment that must be inculcated early in a child’s life and reinforced in adults through relevant, experiential and reflective activities that link the individual’s development of self-knowledge and self-direction to the community in which he/she lives.
