The program model is one that recognizes the need for contextualizing museum education curriculum in both home country context (which has its own unique social and political context) and in the Canadian cultural context of museum education, in which practices may be conceptualized in other beneficial ways to that of the student¹s own country of origin. The end result are graduating students that are then better able to influence the systems in their own countries with strengthened capacities to introduce beneficial reforms around museum education.</span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria;" class=""></div><div style="font-family: ComicSansMS; border-style: none none solid; border-bottom-color: windowtext; border-bottom-width: 1.5pt; padding: 0cm 0cm 1pt;" class=""><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria; border: none; padding: 0cm;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(12, 35, 68);" class=""> </span></p></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria;" class=""><b class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(171, 108, 62);" class=""> </span></b></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria;" class=""><b class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(171, 108, 62);" class="">APPLICATION DEADLINE</span></b></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(12, 35, 68);" class="">March 1, 2016</span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria;" class=""><b class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri;" class=""> </span></b></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria;" class=""><b class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(171, 108, 62);" class="">LEARN MORE</span></b></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria;" class=""><b class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri;" class=""> </span></b></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(12, 35, 68);" class="">Visit <a href="http://bit.ly/1PQls3a" style="color: purple;" class="">pdce.educ.ubc.ca/MED4</a> to learn more, or contact Yvette Kharoubeh at </span><a href="mailto:yvette.kharoubeh@ubc.ca" style="color: purple;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri;" class="">yvette.kharoubeh@ubc.ca</span></a><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(12, 35, 68);" class=""> with your questions.</span></div><div style="font-family: ComicSansMS; border-style: none none solid; border-bottom-color: windowtext; border-bottom-width: 1.5pt; padding: 0cm 0cm 1pt;" class=""><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria; border: none; padding: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(12, 35, 68);" class=""> </span></p></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(12, 35, 68);" class=""> </span></p><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria; text-align: right;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(171, 108, 62);" class="">Pro-D Newsletter</span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Cambria; text-align: right;" class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri; color: rgb(12, 35, 68);" class="">We¹re here to support you in your professional development goals.<br class="">Have opportunities delivered to your inbox each month:<br class=""></span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Calibri;" class=""><span style="color: rgb(94, 134, 159); font-size: 11pt;" class=""><a href="http://ow.ly/Kg72v" style="color: purple;" class="">pdce.educ.ubc.ca/newsletter</a></span></span></div><div class=""><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Calibri;" class=""><br class=""></span></div><div class=""><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div class=""><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div class=""><div class=""><div class="">Lisa McIntosh</div><div class="">Sessional lecturer</div><div class="">Master of Museum Education program</div><div class="">UBC</div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div></div></body></html>
