The Okanagan School of Education will be offering all Summer Institute in Education (SIE) courses online.
As the COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation is rapidly evolving, we have decided to take a proactive measure in changing course delivery. We took into consideration that many of our instructors are teachers in our local school districts, and may not have spare time to alter their course plans should a delivery change become mandatory later on.
By implementing a change in course delivery now, we’re able to provide our SIE instructors with additional time and resources to help ensure a smoother transition.
Instructors will post their updated course syllabus, format and assignments on Canvas (canvas.ok.ubc.ca) once they’re available.
Please note: Students must be available during the currently posted course dates and times as courses may be synchronous, asynchronous or a combination of both.
View the complete list of Summer Institute in Education courses at education.ok.ubc.ca/sie. Registration details are listed on each course page.
If students have concerns regarding their courses, please check canvas, contact your course instructor or email us at sie.education@ubc.ca.
If you still have concerns or academic issues, email Margaret Macintyre Latta, Director of the Okanagan School of Education at margaret.macintyre.latta@ubc.ca
