Did You Know?
Cohort 21 was born in 2012 when 20 passionate educators came together one Saturday morning to talk and think about the future of education. We may have grown and the world has changed around us but the mission is still the same: to build a community of passionate CIS Ontario educators who are interested in refining and redesigning their practice through the exploration of new pedagogies, ideas and tools.
