Preamble

Thank you for agreeing to review the Building Futures in Alberta (BFIA) program and the financial literacy resources it makes available to Alberta teachers. We would like you to review and assess the value and relevance of the free financial literacy resources to determine if the resources of BFIA are going to be useful to teachers and students in Alberta and then complete this survey. We also welcome any suggestions you may have for additional support material if you believe there are gaps in the content covered by BFIA.

You will see that BFIA provides a variety of teaching tools including:
  • A “Learning Framework” that identifies the areas of knowledge, skills, and behaviours suggested as important for financial literacy
  • A “Learning Map,” that is, suggestions for where financial education can be integrated into Alberta’s school curriculum
  • “Supports for Learning,” that is, suggestions and resources to support the integration of instruction.
BFIA then provides free access to a variety of financial literacy programs and resources, including:
  • “Money and Youth: A Financial Literacy Guide” – which is available in hard copy or digital format and includes both Teachers’ Guide and Parent Guides
  • “FinLit 101” – an online, interactive, self-instruction financial literacy program for students that can also be used by teachers to complement in-class instruction
  • “Money Laughs” – a series of 10 brief humourous videos produced by the “Just For Laughs Gags” group focusing on a variety of money topics and including “Tips” for each topic and a Teacher’s Guide
  • “Talk With Our Kids About Money” – a program for youth ages 8-14 with a chance to win $5,000
  •  “My Money, My Future Challenge” – a program for youth ages 14-18 with a chance to win $10,000
  • “Ambassadors” Program – providing teachers with an opportunity to link to a representative from the financial industry in their own community
  • “Monthly Money Quiz” that students can do independently or in competition with other students, classes, and schools
We very much welcome and appreciate your review and assessment of the tools, resources and programs provided.

THANK YOU!
