Student research showcase

Each year, fourth-year students in CYCW 423, Child and Youth Care Research, design and implement a research project, which they then showcase in a poster session that is open to the public. Generally held late in the fall term, the showcase gives students the opportunity to dig more deeply into a topic of interest.

We’re lucky to learn and be guided through doing research as undergraduate students. We got to see how research can create an open dialogue, connect people and give people space to talk about things that are important to them.

Pass the Mic

Pass the Mic is a podcast research project involving MacEwan University’s Bachelor of Child and Youth Care students, graduates and practitioners in the field. Participants "take up the mic" to discuss personal experiences with identity. The podcast conversations and readings are thought provoking, critical and at times emotional.
