 June 2019. Upon successful completion, the AKA teacher interns will be eligible to receive an IB certificate in teaching and learning (IBCTL) from the International Baccalaureate.
Such a partnership between the AKA and UBC brings the combined capabilities and expertise of both organisations to bear on improving the educational opportunities available to young people in Africa and promotes a deeper and better informed global perspective among teachers and students in British Columbia. It reflects the true spirit of international mindedness and global citizenship, two key tenets of IB, and pluralism, so central to the work of the Academies, that we, as teacher educators and learners, aim to model and to which we aspire for the benefit of our teacher candidates and future generations of children in their care.
As one of the world’s top research universities supporting international initiatives designed to improve the quality of teaching and learning globally, UBC IB Education is honoured to partner with the Aga Khan Academy in this pilot project which has the potential to impact the lives of both children and teachers alike across continents.

Gruppen lasts only 20 minutes and all 100 or so players are divided into three orchestras, each needing its own conductor.

The commitments are taken from Chris Heisenberg’s recruiting.Honestly didn't even notice the part 3.

That is interesting and leads me to question Gibson's intentions. And i'd be wrong to act as if he doesn't have an utterly Christian bias. Hacksaw Ridge is an example of a film that displays those values without tearing others down, which i'm perfectly fine with despite my beliefs. But at the time i watched Apocalypto, that definitely wasn't my reading of the spainards showing up at the end. To me, they were a further display of how "civilized" culture can bring about utter physical and cultural destruction. A point that felt poignant whether Gibson intended it or not.

Perhaps a rewatch is in order to better assess his intentions.This is similar to what my dad did. He's a convert to the church, and while he was dating my mom, he was taking lessons. One day, he looked at the elders after a lesson and asked a favor of them. He asked them to, on their next p-day, show up in comfortable clothes and sneakers. They asked what they'd be doing. He said "you've asked me to trust you and trust in God for *x* weeks now. I'm asking you to trust me now. You'll see when we get there."

And so they went... to play laser tag.

I know it's not the most spiritual thing, but it cracks me up when I think about it.The 7.7 earthquake that rocked northern Chile on Wednesday exposed an unusual rock formation in the ocean area 80 miles off the coastal mining city of Antofagasta.
Residents fleeing the area were alerted to the structure that seemed to mysteriously rise out of the water.
Marine biologists initially thought it was merely a corral island, but on closer examination the formation appears to be a collection of life-like replicas of Jesus.
Augusto Merlot of the Chilean Archaeological society was awed by the formations close resemblance to the enigmatic moai statues of Easter Island or Rapa Nui as it is called locally.
Devotees have flocked to a tiny village from where the formation is clearly visible. Maria Dolorosa said all the statues looked like they were weeping.
In Washington televangelist Pat Robertson warned that while earthquakes are God's retribution for homosexuality and abortion, "we must take comfort in God's message. He is talking to us".
Mr.Robertson said that God had appeared to him in a dream the night before, telling him he would soon receive a message.
When asked why God would have chosen this method to communicate with him and what was the message, Mr. Robertson replied "The Lord works in mysterious ways. It is not ours to question why".
