PEI ACTIVE 3 TRANSPORTATION STRATEGY For many residents of PEI, there are opportunities to incorporate active transportation into our day-to-day lives. The simple act of leaving the car at home and using muscle power for transportation, at least some of the time, will have a number of positive outcomes for individuals, communities and society. With more people using active transportation, the air will be cleaner, people will be healthier, and money will be saved. The PEI Active Transportation Strategy lays out pathways to support Islanders in making active, cleaner and healthier transportation choices. Through a variety of investments and outreach initiatives the strategy will focus on: • Enhancing the safety of everyone who uses active forms of transportation through infrastructure improvements; • Improving active transportation route connectivity within and among communities and between key destinations across the province; • Strengthening partnerships with municipalities, Indigenous communities and non-government organizations (NGOs) around walking, cycling and any other forms of active transportation; and • Creating a promotion and education campaign to increase the confidence and competence of those wanting to commute actively. While developing the Sustainable Transportation Action Plan for PEI, Islanders were asked what should be done to encourage more active transportation.

  • Popular Music in Elementary Programs Prince Edward Island Teachers’ Perspectives
    Popular Music in Elementary Programs Prince Edward Island Teachers’ Perspectives by © Nicole Waite A Thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Education (Curriculum, Teaching and Learning Studies) Faculty of Education Memorial University of Newfoundland May 2019 St. John’s Newfoundland Abstract This qualitative study investigates the perspectives of Prince Edward Island elementary music teachers on topics of popular music and teacher preparation in post-secondary education programs. In-depth interviews were completed with 10 elementary music teachers to investigate their views on the use of popular music in the elementary classroom, their personal definition of popular music, and barriers that they may have encountered when incorporating this style into their programming. Teachers were also asked about their experiences in post-secondary music education programs, what courses they found were most applicable to their current positions, and suggestions they may have for improvements to these programs. Keywords: Elementary music education, popular music, Prince Edward Island, teacher perspectives, interviews, grounded theory, post-secondary music education Acknowledgements I would like to extend a special thank-you to my thesis advisor, Dr. David Buley. His openness to a variety of views and his curiosity for new ideas allowed me to freely shape my inquiries. Also, I would like to thank Dr. June Countryman, who has been an inspiration to me since the beginning of my academic career and continues to donate her time generously in order to guide my questions and strengthen my arguments.
