This project was funded in part by the Alberta Historical Resources Foundation

Engaging in culture and art through primary sources.

Welcome to 21st Century Learning - Links to Our Collection. These online modules and supplemental education guides were developed to allow access to hundreds of digitized images from Glenbow collections.

We hope to extend our vision of "More people, interacting with art, culture and ideas more often."

	with historical photos and artifacts students examine a culture whose traditions continue to live on and thrive.
	What is contemporary art? This package looks at the question and gives students tools to constructively appreciate art.
	Students will explore how age old traditions can be modified to fit into our contemporary world.
	Discover the Crees traditional ways of life, beliefs, artwork and unique culture.
	Discover the captivating stories and authentic artifacts from the soldiers of the North-West Mounted Police.
	Using art as a subject matter, students will recognize the concept transformation and evolution through time.
