Dear Christine,
We are writing this letter to thank you very much for your participation in “WestCAST 2018 -
Contemporary Classrooms as Complex Spaces”, held at the University of Manitoba, Feb. 21-23. You
represented Vancouver Island University as an outstanding ambassador for the institution as well as
for the Faculty of Education. We are so proud of all of the preparation, scholarly research, and time
that you put in to your inquiry project that you presented at WestCAST. Your presentation was very
well received by the many people from all over the western provinces and territories present at
your session. It should be very rewarding to know that your academic work will be influencing other
teachers and children, This is a wonderful achievement! We appreciate your professionalism and
commitment, and thank you again for this important contribution to the field of Education.
