  • The Making of Sir John Franklin High School, Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, 1958–1967
    40 Historical Studies in Education / Revue d’histoire de l’éducation SPECIAL ISSUE / NUMÉRO SPÉCIAL Education North of 60 / Éducation au nord du 60e “An Exceedingly Complex Institution”1: The Making of Sir John Franklin High School, Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, 1958–1967 W.P.J. Millar ABSTRACT “A difficult school”; “one of the brightest jewels in the…[government’s] crown”; “an exceed- ingly complex institution.” These descriptions of Sir John Franklin high school by some of its first teachers encapsulate the ambivalent early history of the school. This article traces its devel- opment in its first few years, beginning with its inception as an ambitious gleam in the federal government’s eye, and exploring its initial formidable challenges as a vocational and academic high school in the later 1950s and early 1960s for students not only in Yellowknife but coming from throughout the Northwest Territories. Not the least challenge was the provision of an education that would integrate students raised in several different cultures, but there were other difficulties as well. Sir John was not an ordinary high school. In many ways it was a unique in- stitution in the history of Canadian education, based in theory on a southern Canadian model but by necessity incorporating a distinctively northern Canadian reality, and as such, providing a new perspective on the history of Canadian secondary education. RÉSUMÉ « Une école difficile »; « un des plus brillants joyaux de la Couronne »; « une institution excessivement complexe ». Ces descriptions à propos de l’école secondaire John Franklin par quelques-uns de ses premiers enseignants décrivent l’histoire ambivalente des débuts de cette institution.

  • Compendium of Research in the Northwest Territories 2014
    Compendium of Research in the Northwest Territories 2014 www.nwtresearch.com This publication is a collaboration between the Aurora Research Institute, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre. Thank you to all who submitted a summary of research or photographs, and helped make this publication possible. Editor: Ashley Mercer Copyright © 2015 ISSN: 1205-3910 Printed by Aurora Research Institute Foreword Welcome to the 2014 Compendium of Research in the Northwest Territories. This year marked a special anniversary for the Aurora Research Institute and northern research. Fifty years ago, the Inuvik Research Laboratory was built and has served as a hub for research in the western arctic ever since. The Lab, as it was known, was first built as an initiative of the Canadian federal government in the newly established community of Inuvik. It remains on the same site today, but in 2011, a new modern multi-purpose facility opened to continue to support research in the north. We have included a brief history of the Lab and its impact in this edition of the Compendium to mark its long lasting importance to many researchers and community members. As part of the 50th anniversary celebration, the Aurora Research Institute team undertook a full set of NWT-wide celebrations. We celebrated the history, capacity and growth of research in the NWT that touched all corners of the territory and beyond. We honoured the significant scientific contributions that have taken place in the NWT over the past 50 years, and the role of NWT researchers, technicians and citizens in these accomplishments.

  • Frame Lake Trail Geological Guide
    This guide takes you on a geological walking tour of the Frame Lake Trail and describes the rocks and geological features along the way. The hike begins at the Visitor’s Centre and continues clockwise around Frame Lake. You will find the accompanying geology map a useful tool for navigating the trail and for keeping track of the exposed rock types along the trail. As shown on the map, the Frame Lake Trail is a 7-kilometre loop that can be completed by a moderate walker in about 1.5 hours. In order to fully appreciate the geological features, Introduction allow more time to complete the circuit. Similar rocks appear along the length of the trail, therefore the same rock types may be seen along the route. The trail is paved from the RCMP building on the town side to Stanton Hospital on Frame Lake’s south-side, but for the most part, the trail has lots of rocks to clamber over, wooden 1 bridges across low swampy areas and The rocks that you are walking over gravel paths.

In the background are outcrops of the Late Devonian Imperial Formation, interpreted to be submarine turbidite deposits. The light bands are sandstone bodies intercalated with the darker shale intervals, representing periodic activity in sedimentation. Compiled by D. Irwin, S.D. Gervais, and V.
