Alberta curriculum to be taught in China classrooms
& ?' A+ v& |8 z r9 y2 c9 DEdmonton... Alberta Learning and China's Ministry of Education have finalized an agreement to establish Alberta-accredited schools in China and further education initiatives on language and culture in both learning systems. ! t8 j4 o8 N$ R. S3 `5 Z* ]
"These will be Alberta's first international schools and the benefits are far reaching," said Premier Ralph Klein, who signed the agreement on behalf of Alberta while in Beijing as part of an Alberta trade mission. "International students who have already attained Alberta credentials are more likely to choose one of our post-secondary institutions when seeking international study opportunities."
1 ^+ l7 d3 A( K. |; \: PStudents attending the accredited schools would receive an education based on the Alberta curriculum and could qualify for an Alberta provincial high school diploma. The China schools could potentially also serve Canadian students living abroad and provide a model for future schools in other countries. Alberta and China will begin work immediately to develop the program and plan to celebrate school openings in 2005. China will pay the costs of operating the schools, as well as regular inspections and any other services that Alberta provides.

% z) j- N; w, R3 A$ RThe agreement also provides Alberta Learning with a special advisor on Chinese language and culture to assist in developing a provincial Chinese language curriculum, offer specialized professional development to Alberta's Chinese language teachers, and provide advice on the ministry's international activities with China. $ A& ^7 B' T0 i
"Having an advisor from China to help develop our language program is a tremendous benefit as we begin implementation of Alberta's second languages initiative," said Oberg. "The potential to exchange language-teaching assistants is an additional opportunity to enhance student learning."
