The graphic design student will work towards packaging educational resources into a cohesive design that can be published and distributed to teachers across Alberta. You will use a combination of developed experimental procedures, assessments, background notes, and lesson plans to create a comprehensive booklet for educational use.

This project will be conducted under the guidance of Dr. Kaitlyn Towle, Assistant Professor in the Department of Physical Sciences at MacEwan University.

Throughout this project your duties and roles may include, but is not limited to:

• Collaborating with junior high educators to build useful open educational resources
• Adding creative and eye catching designs to teaching materials that will provide a cohesive look to the resources

This phase of the project is expected to take 80-hours to complete over 6-8-weeks. This project will start as soon as a suitable candidate is found. The majority of project work in this phase can be done remotely.

The student will work closely with Dr. Kaitlyn Towle, who is available for questions. The graphic designer will provide weekly progress reports (either verbally or written). Any problems or issues that arise will be addressed through collaboration with the student and Dr. Towle.

Types of supports that will be included

• access to grade 7-9 curriculum resources
• access to classroom teachers grades 7-9
• examples of completed projects
