SUMMARY:Enoch Turner Schoolhouse Foundation "Opening the Schoolhouse to All" Online Lecture Series: 2 of 4
DESCRIPTION:Lecture 2: Are We Moving Closer to Gender Equity in Education?\nSession Two (November 24) asks “Are We Moving Closer to Gender Equity in Education?” Former Premier and Minister of Education\, Kathleen Wynne\, will be joined on the panel by University of Waterloo Professor Kristina Llewellyn\, author of Democracy’s Angels: The Work of Women Teachers; Elizabeth Smyth\, from OISE/University of Toronto\, co-editor of Women Educators\, Leaders and Activists; and Toronto teacher Sachin Maharaj\, a Toronto Star contributing columnist. \n\nBy law and custom\, everyone in Canada attends school. Some two-thirds of Canadians have been to college or university\, among the highest participation rates in the world. Yet the achievement of full and equal access to schooling is an ongoing and unfinished project. \nHow has the pursuit of wider educational opportunity evolved historically? How do educational experiences educational vary by race\, gender\, neighbourhoods\, and special needs? What kinds of teaching and learning will best serve individuals and communities in the years ahead? How is the COVID-19 affecting access to schools and the experiences of students\, teachers\, and families? \nThese and other questions will be taken up in a four-part ZOOM series\, sponsored by the Enoch Turner Schoolhouse Foundation\, which begins in November 2020 and will continue in January 2021. The sessions feature presentations and panel discussions on a range of important educational themes. The series\, free of charge\, and accessible online\, is designed for a broad audience interested in the past\, present and future of Canadian education. \nSpeakers include academics\, teachers\, and community leaders whose work\, writing\, and public engagement have enhanced our understanding of the schooling world. \nThrough provocative questions and informed discussion\, the series will probe the achievements\, limitations and prospects of schooling and higher education in disquieting times. \nContacts: \n\nPaul Axelrod\, series co-coordinator paxelrod@edu.yorku.ca\nMiriah Bough\, Enoch Turner Foundation\n\nStay tuned for information on how to register for this free series.

SUMMARY:Christmas in the Town of York 2020
DESCRIPTION:Join us on December 17th for a festive evening as we learn about the Christmas traditions of days gone by! \nAbout this Event:\nMany of us who celebrate Christmas have traditions that we feel are steeped and time honoured. But most of them aren’t as old as we might think. Hardly any of the Christmas traditions that we know today were widely celebrated when the Town of York was founded back in 1793\, and can instead be dated to the Victorian era. But we’ll also look back at a time\, before the Town of York even started\, that Christmas was outlawed and celebrating it was illegal. Whether you’re passionate about putting up the Christmas decorations\, or like to channel your inner Scrooge\, you’ll be sure to find something of interest in this presentation! \nAbout the Speaker:\nRichard Fiennes-Clinton has been involved in the local Toronto historical community for over 30 years. He gives walking tours all across Toronto\, but has also organized a lot of archival material\, which he uses to give illustrated talks on more than 200 years of Toronto history. He is also the author of a book called Muddy York – A History of Toronto Until 1834\, copies of which are available for purchase at Toronto’s First Post Office.
