Centre for Research in Youth, Science Teaching and Learning (CRYSTAL-Alberta)
CRYSTAL-Alberta is the National Leader and Coordinator of five CRYSTAL/CREAS established across Canada. The aim of the centres is to increase understanding of the skills and resources needed to improve the quality of science and mathematics education (K-12), and understanding of the best ways to enrich the preparation of young Canadians in these foundation subjects. CRYSTAL-Alberta was established to provide guidance to improve students' interest in and engagement with science and mathematics. CRYSTAL-Alberta is producing a resource bank of innovative and tested teaching materials for particular grade levels and topics in science and mathematics. The materials are being designed to improve students' scientific and mathematical understanding and to transform teaching and assessment. CRYSTAL-Alberta is a collaborative effort. The major collaborators are the Faculties of Education and Science of the University of Alberta, The King's University College, and the Edmonton Public and Edmonton Catholic School Boards through Harry Ainlay High School and Holy Trinity Catholic High School. Our other major partners are highlighted on this site. CRYSTAL-Alberta Outreach is a website that contains resource materials that promote mathematics and science reasoning. These resources are from partners and from CRYSTAL-Alberta research projects, including King's Centre for Visualization in Science (KCVS). Links
