A number of courses are team taught by two or more faculty members, examining topics from several disciplinary viewpoints.

  • Doctoral Pathway Frequently Asked Questions
    Doctoral Pathway Frequently Asked Questions What are the different types of doctoral programs in education? Broadly speaking, there are two types of educational doctoral degrees: a Ph.D. (Doctor of Philosophy) and Ed.D. (Doctor of Education). A Ph.D. tends to be more theoretical, while a Ed.D. tends to be more applied. We sometimes refer to a Ph.D. as being an academic doctoral degree, while an Ed.D. degree is called a professional doctoral degree. Ph.D programs almost always have a thesis component as a culminating assignment. Ed.D. degrees usually have either a thesis or a major project as a culminating assignment. People tend to be more familiar with Ph.Ds than Ed.D. degrees, although there are some high profile Ed.D degrees around the world (e.g., Harvard has one). You’ll find that there are lots of university and college professors who have Ed.Ds rather than Ph.Ds. You’ll also find people with Ed.Ds and Ph.Ds working at the Ministry as well as in senior leadership positions at the Board level. Both are prestigious doctoral-level degrees. Why would I want a Ph.D or an Ed.D? If you want to be a university professor, you will need a Ph.D. or Ed.D. Many Ontario Colleges are also preferentially hiring instructors with a Ph.D. or Ed.D. An Ed.D. or Ph.D. might make you a stronger candidate if you want to work at the ministry, or at a school board, or as an educational consultant of some kind.

  • Classifying Educational Programmes
    Classifying Educational Programmes Manual for ISCED-97 Implementation in OECD Countries 1999 Edition ORGANISATION FOR ECONOMIC CO-OPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT Foreword As the structure of educational systems varies widely between countries, a framework to collect and report data on educational programmes with a similar level of educational content is a clear prerequisite for the production of internationally comparable education statistics and indicators. In 1997, a revised International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED-97) was adopted by the UNESCO General Conference. This multi-dimensional framework has the potential to greatly improve the comparability of education statistics – as data collected under this framework will allow for the comparison of educational programmes with similar levels of educational content – and to better reflect complex educational pathways in the OECD indicators. The purpose of Classifying Educational Programmes: Manual for ISCED-97 Implementation in OECD Countries is to give clear guidance to OECD countries on how to implement the ISCED-97 framework in international data collections. First, this manual summarises the rationale for the revised ISCED framework, as well as the defining characteristics of the ISCED-97 levels and cross-classification categories for OECD countries, emphasising the criteria that define the boundaries between educational levels. The methodology for applying ISCED-97 in the national context that is described in this manual has been developed and agreed upon by the OECD/INES Technical Group, a working group on education statistics and indicators representing 29 OECD countries. The OECD Secretariat has also worked closely with both EUROSTAT and UNESCO to ensure that ISCED-97 will be implemented in a uniform manner across all countries.

    €x iLibrig JOHN CHANCELLOR BOYLEN FROM THE TRANSACTIOXS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF CANADA THIRD SERIES— 1908-1909 V^OLUME II SECTION Ij HISTORY OF THE QUEEN'S RANGERS By JAMES HANNAY, D.C.I.. OTTAWA PRINTED FOR '^HE ROYAL SOOIETY OB' CANADA, 1909 — Section II., 1908. [123] Trans. R. S. C. IV. History of the Queen's Rangers. By James Hannay, D.C.L. (Read May 26, 1908.) I. Of the forty or more battalions of Loyalists which enlisted in the service of the Crown during the Eevolutionary war, none has been so widely celebrated as the Queen's Eangers. This, no doubt, is partly due to the fact that they found a historian in Lieut.-Col. Simcoe, their com- manding officer, who wrote a book to chronicle their achievements; yet after making all allowance for this advantage, it must be admitted, with- out detriment to the other Loyalist corps, that the Queen's Eangers ex- ceeded them all in length and variety of service. What the famous Light Division was in Wellington's Peninsular Campaigns. the Queen's Eangers became to the British army in America ; whenever there was an enterprise that demanded celerity and daring, the Queen's Eangers were selected for the service, if they happened to be at all near the place where it was to be performed. Their six years of active service in the war made them veterans, and their peculiar organization enabled them to ac- complish feats which would have been quite beyond the power of an ordinary battalion of the line.
