EFN Staff - Google Earth Voyageur develops residential school story primer for school students - Eagle Feather News, December 13, 2017

School boards across Canada have been looking for educational resources to help the process of reconciliation with Canada’s Indigenous Peoples begin. Teachers will now have a primer on Canada’s residential schools.

Canadian Geographic Education (Can Geo Education), the first Canadian organization to produce Google Earth Voyager content, has worked closely with the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation (NCTR) of the University of Manitoba to create an educational tool that will help students learn about this dark chapter in Canadian history.
