Connected North
Connected North is a school-based program
operated by registered charity
TakingITGlobal that connects students and
teachers in remote communities to virtual
experiences and opportunities outside their
geographic region.
Over 35,000 students from kindergarten to
grade 12 from 170 schools across Canada
access over 2,000 interactive learning
opportunities (called "Sessions") through live
video via technology in their classrooms.
Connected North's 400+ Content Providers
cover all topics and subject areas - science,
math, cultural teachings, museum tours, art
sessions, mentoring, coding, language
revitalization, musical training, teacher
professional development, mental wellness,
physical education, and more.
Connected North is committed to working in
respectful partnership with Indigenous
communities. The digital resources are
developed with Indigenous ways of knowing
and learning.
We believe that exposure to mentors, and to
new opportunities and experiences is key to
helping students succeed both in school and
in life.
