Learning Clicks, 2006-2007. Final Report
Alberta Advanced Education and Technology
Now progressing into its fourth year, Learning Clicks is an interactive, dynamic, and informative program to help students in Grades 9-12 learn about the importance, long-term benefits, and opportunities of post-secondary education. This program also serves as a portal to provide students with the necessary information to assist in planning and preparing for post-secondary studies. In 2002, the Accessibility Communications Framework determined a need to provide youth with accurate and consistent information relating to Alberta's post-secondary options. The Learning Clicks CD-ROM, web site, and Youth Ambassador Program were developed to communicate with young Albertans about the long term benefits of post-secondary education and the importance of early planning. In January 2007, Learning Clicks launched a new component, Parent Clicks. In addition to providing post-secondary information for students, Learning Clicks has also reached the adult/parent market. In just 4 months, 450 parents received the Parent Clicks presentation. This executive summary provides the 2006-07 overall results of Learning Clicks including student results, teacher results, and parent results as well as new developments involving the program staff. Appended are: (1) Student Satisfaction Survey; (2) Teacher Satisfaction Survey; (3) Parent Satisfaction Survey; (4) Learning Clicks Year 1, 2, & 3 Results Comparison; and (5) Learning Clicks 2006-07 Team Pictures.
