Where: McMaster University in Hamilton

How do we rebuild connections with our colleagues and our students after the disruptions of Covid teaching? How can we reimagine education to respond to the needs of every student in a destreamed classroom that is culturally relevant and responsive?

OHASSTA is pleased to welcome back Social Science and History educators from across Ontario for our November Conference: Reconnect and Reimagine: Meeting Challenges in 2022. Join us this fall to help rejuvenate history and social science teaching!

NOTE: This will be an in-person conference at McMaster University on Saturday, November 26th, 2022, however, to meet the needs of all members, we are offering some pre-recorded workshops.

A big thank you to our partner The Collaborative for welcoming us back on site!
