What people are saying
“The response from our teachers has been overwhelmingly positive. I have to tell you, in all of our pedagogical tech endeavors…this has by far been one of the most successful ones. The feedback I’m getting from the teachers involved is very positive. I’m hearing similar words from many different teachers such as: “It has transformed my students learning.” “It has been so impactful.” “It just works!” and much, much more.”

“It’s been such a pleasure working with the FCL team. Corrine has developed such a wonderful library of content for our users. With any good thing, there is always much work and a long road ahead, but having FCL in our corner has made a huge impact in the vehicle to get us miles down the road towards the finish line. Since the beginning of January, the ticket that I receive for “How to’s” has greatly diminished.”

“Over my career there have been several partnerships with outside establishments, none have been as fruitful as the partnership with Fair Chance Learning (FCL). The FCL team embodies the essence of collaboration; they worked with us to determine the needs of our division, helped devise a plan that would carry us forward, and they continue to seek feedback on the progress of the plan. Each person we have worked with on the FCL team has been enthusiastic, industrious, and knowledgeable. Their understanding of current educational research and the education system is paramount, you can see how that understanding is the foundation for all they do. I look forward to continuing this partnership!
On a personal level, it has been a great honour to “host” our live sessions with Corinne. Her passion for teaching transcends the physical space between us. Not only has she taught me about the practical aspects of integrating effective technology use into my teaching, but she has also showed me what it means to be a dynamic presenter.”

“The session was great. Every single student was engaged and had a great time coding. They didn’t want to stop when it was over. Thank you for a great session and I spring myself and my students to learn more about coding! ”
“I totally didn't know 100% what this would be like (but knew it would be good because it was organized by Fair Chance Learning) and was 100% impressed by this workshop. The variety of sessions and quality of speakers was top-notch. I have coached 'traditional' sports and I confidently say that eSports has all the elements of these. A clinic like this is super relevant and important. The way the clinic was laid out with the topics, game playthroughs, and reflections in gameplan were great ways to learn, share, and improve. Discord was a great platform in which to interact, watch streams, and build community. It is also important to use the communication tool that most eSports clubs and gamers use. I can't say enough good things. Thanks and I hope to stay in touch and hope there is a face to face opportunity down the road.”
