University of Victoria feature

I am incredibly grateful for this little interview from my alma mater and partner in learning, the University of Victoria. Have a read of the full piece here.

Trevor Mackenzie has been a high school teacher for almost twenty years. After graduating from UVic with a BA in 2002 followed by a teaching certification, he worked at Esquimalt High School for a decade and in South Korea for a year. For the past seven years, he has worked as an English teacher at Oak Bay High School and in 2019, he completed his Master of Education under the supervision of Dr. Valerie Irvine. His thesis, ‘A Framework for Implementing Inquiry-Based Learning in the K-12 Setting’, explored the barriers to inquiry implementation, growth and application, and provided structures to remove these identified barriers.

We spoke with Trevor to discuss his effort to bring more inquiry-based learning into the classroom.”
