Youth homelessness is a seemingly intractable problem in Canada. On any given night about 6000 young people experience homelessness, and over a year this number swells to between 35-40,000. To tackle the problem, we must begin by recognizing that youth homelessness is distinct from adult homelessness in terms of it causes and conditions, and therefore so must be the solutions. In this course, we explore the issue of youth hopelessness in Canada, in order to understand the experiences of a marginalized group of young people, how we have responded to the problem, and how we might work differently to have a significant impact on solutions. In particular we will explore the potential role of education and schools in addressing youth homelessness. Crosslisted EDUC 5935. This course was previously offered as EU/ENVS 5135.

How did external dance influences and trends in popular music, film and television impact on the field? What can the lives and perspectives of people dancing tell us about social change and continuity? Finally, why has dance been ignored in most accounts of Canadian culture?

This course addresses both the measurement and improvement of quality and patient safety in healthcare organizations. Students will learn the principles and processes of quality improvement (QI) and patient safety including QI theory and tools, the importance of system level factors in understanding patient safety failure, and the role that measurement, leadership, culture, and interprofessional teams play in QI and safety. The principles and practices of quality management will be critically assessed including consideration of current methods used to measure and track quality and safety, the state of empirical support for process improvement techniques, and data quality challenges that are central to the measurement of patient outcome in healthcare. Legal and regulatory issues in healthcare quality and safety will also be explored.

Paradoxically, while the social meanings attached to race are recognized as groundless, race persists in defining and confining identities, facilitating social cohesion, and making subjectivies that transcend time and space. The focus on discourse in this course explores this paradox. We examine connections between language and different form of knowledge - of culture, History, Anthropology - in making and sustaining race. We consider how discourses of identity and difference, culture and nature, converge with discourses of the body in multiple representations to make race, like gender, one of the most naturalized discourses of our time.

Urban communities are typically spatial centres to which individuals migrate and immigrate. With this comes increased population density, economic disparities and increased cultural, ethic, racial and religious diversity. Public institutions, and schools in particular, are charged with the responsibility of addressing the resultant challenges. Using Toronto as an example, the course begins by examining the question: What characterizes urban schools We then go on to examine the historical, social, economis and political issues in the city and investigate how the demographic changes in particular have affected the education system. What changes have occured in the teaching, professional and administrative staff of the schools in term of representation What curricula, programmatic and pedagogical changes have occured? What are the challenges and tensions that the schools face as they attempt to accomodate diverse cultures? Schools in Toronto will be investigated and used as case studies. Through urban theory, field visits and individual assignments we will investigate the extent to which schools' currucula, program and staff representatives are responsive to the needs of today's students. Special attention will be paid to the roles of educators, students and parents in helping address educational, cultural and social issues. The goal of this course, therefore, is to enable students to develop working (tentative and transitional) conceptualizations around the following essential question: how are power, knowledge, identity and cultural representation organized within the space of urban educational encounters?

An introduction to education for sustainability through an interdisciplinary approach involving social, economic and environmental concerns. It will build on each student`s knowledge about his or her discipline (e.g., science, history, geography) or issue (social justice, gender equity, ecological stability) and explore how that knowledge can add to the overall picture of education for sustainability.

Examines the deep cultural dimensions of the ecological crisis and considers the implications for public education. Discussing pre-contact indigenous models of education, the course examines education`s role in developing mind and landscape. Historical sustainability and contemporary environmental, social and educational malaise will be studied. We conclude envisioning education to create sustainable culture.

Examines the nested relationship between culture, education and the larger ecological system, with specific attention to developing eco-ethical consciousness as a means toward attending to the patterns of belief and behaviour leading to ecological degradation.
