Renewed offer: in person, hybrid formula and/or at home

Check our COVID-19 Frequently Asked Questions to answer all your questions.

5 reasons to choose Youth Fusion

  1. To carry out exciting projects with students from elementary school to high school, in urban centres as well as in remote areas, at school, at home or elsewhere, no matter what the school year has in store for us.
  2. To actively develop students’ skills with a renewed formula that responds to our new reality and motivate them to persevere in their studies.
  3. To concretely support teachers in their willingness to share their educational matter in an exciting and fun way.
  4. To create unique bonds with our competent and passionate coordinators who are trained in technopedagogy.
  5. To give students the opportunity to discover new passions in fields that inspire them.

The 5th year class at Barthélémy-Vimont Primary School had many difficulties in their learning and when it comes to listening to instructions. However, the teacher for this group told me several times that she noticed a transformation in her students during theatre workshops. According to her, the activities shone a light on the creativity and talent of some students who had lots of difficulties in French, and therefore allowed her to see them differently. Moreover, the games allowed her to have fun with her students, whereas she rarely had the chance to do so during a regular day.

Coordinator,
Dramatic Arts at Barthélémy-Vimont School

My students have learning difficulties. By making them do more concrete activities, they understand better and take part in activities. They have learned to use software such as Photoshop and SketchUp. By doing this, they develop more technical competencies and also develop self-confidence since they can excel.

Teacher, Environmental Design at Louis-Joseph Papineau High School

I wondered what a remote theatre class would look like, and Anne-Marie pleasantly surprised me with her exercise suggestions. After the first class, Oli had a light in his eyes while he told me everything. He said: ‘I really liked my class; I do not regret signing up!’ My mom heart melted. I want Oli’s high school to have a theatre company! =)

Dramatic Arts at Charles-Bruneau School, parent testimony

The students at Dalbé-Viau school did not have much motivation. However, as soon as they saw their game become more concrete, even just by implementing a basic animation in their programming, many talents emerged! In fact, the class is full of artists (Pixel art)! If the project had made it to the festival, I am convinced that many teams would have won prizes for the aesthetic of their game!

Coordinator, Video Game Creation at Dalbé-Viau high school

Even though schools were closed because of Covid-19, several of my students kept working on their project and writing me so I could answer their question. One team in particular was motivated by a student in the group who really wanted to finish their game.

Coordinator, Video Game Design at Neufchâtel High School

Connecting with students via TEAMS was really fantastic, I saw it did them good. We did the Me, my shoes workshop, a dynamic activity where students get moving and must invent and present a character from different pairs of shoes that I show them on PowerPoint. The students went all out to incarnate their characters, using accessories and costumes for some of them.

Coordinator, Coordinator, Dramatic Arts at Barthélémy-Vimont School on the theme: making a character your own using a personal element as a basis (shoes)

WELCOME TO OUR FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS RELATED TO COVID-19

Do not hesitate to write to us at projets@fusionjeunesse.org if any questions remain unanswered

What does Youth Fusion’s new offer consist in?

In order to adapt to our new reality, Youth Fusion will offer, as soon as this fall, a proposition for a new formula for the projects they offer  in-person, virtually, in a hybrid mode.

For this formula, all of Youth Fusion’s pedagogical programs (in arts, science and engineering, design, leadership and entrepreneurship) were re-thought so they could work as well virtually as they do in person. To do this, we have developed a new interactive platform which allows us to carry out our activities remotely, synchronously and asynchronously.

The students will have the chance to follow fascinating and engaging programs, whether they are in class or outside!

In the case of a second wave of COVID-19, will your team be able to continue activities virtually?

Absolutely! This year, we have revisited all of our programs to adjust to all the possible scenarios. Activities will be carried out in person or remotely even if schools need to close, ensuring a continuous accompaniment to students and teachers despite the pandemic.

Our priority is to adapt to teachers’ reality all while concentrating our energy on our fundamental mission: encouraging youth’s academic success.

Finally, all the coordinators who will be leading the workshops receive a technopedagogical training to maintain a high engagement from the students and encourage interactions.

How will your projects encourage academic perseverance from a distance?

Since we offer projects in fields that youth are passionate about, and since we will be maintaining remote follow-ups and mentorship, students will remain engaged and continue to be intrigued by these projects.

In fact, all of our coordinators will have received a technopedagogical training beforehand to maintain a high level of engagement and encourage interactions. Students will want to continue pushing themselves and keep going on their academic journey.

Moreover, asynchronous activities will also be offered via our online learning platform; this will allow students to further their knowledge beyond the activities led by the coordinators. The goal is to strengthen the bond with the student as well as their sense of belonging to the project and to the school.

How will teachers be able to follow up on acquired skills during projects if it becomes necessary to go back home?

We will use the tools available to us as best as we can. For instance, with the platform made available to the academic world, teachers will be able to create quizzes, interactive games, evaluations, and more. This way, teachers will be able to follow students’ progress in collaboration with the project coordinators. Our coordinators will be able to join and invest themselves fully and actively with the students. The coordinators will then be able to do specific follow-ups with the teachers regarding the skills acquired by the students.

For the projects offered in person, can you guarantee that current sanitary norms will be respected?

Absolutely! Indeed, each of our employees intervening in schools receives training before the beginning of their intervention. First, the governmental norms applicable to our organization are included in the 2020 training. This program will also be adapted depending on the conditions specific to each region and each student base. Moreover, coordinators will be equipped with the necessary supplies (mask and gloves) when they visit schools. They will also have to complete an online form before each trip to schools, with questions on their travels and the possible apparition of symptoms. Finally, a protocol was set up so that the norms are respected even during extracurricular activities or programs that require a lot of supplies. These supplies will be rigorously disinfected according to an established schedule.

I am still not sure whether I will take part in a project. Can I register later?

Over a hundred schools have already booked their activities for 2020-21. There is still time to do it via our revised and improved project request platform. There, you will find the complete description of all our programs, among other things.

Seeing this is an exceptional back-to-school season, we have pushed back the registration deadline to October 2, 2020. After this date, we will count the requests we have received and check if we have the necessary budget to implement all the requested projects. It is therefore highly suggested to send your request sooner rather than later.

Need more information? Communicate with a member of our team.

If you have questions about Youth Fusion programs, do not hesitate to communicate with us at the address projets@fusionjeunesse.org.

If you have questions about the programs in educational robotics offered by Robotics FIRST Québec or if you want to sign up, do not hesitate to communicate with Mr. Rachid Abiza (rabiza@robotiquefirstquebec.org or 514 652-3420) for the FIRST Lego League (6 to 14 years old) or with Mr. Martin Regimbald (mregimbald@robotiquefirstquebec.org or 514 583-6732) for the FIRST Robotics Competition (14 to 18 years old). They will evaluate with you the varied options to accompany you, including the possibility of integrating a Youth Fusion coordinator for support.

A New Offer for an Unprecedented Year

Our fundamental mission is to motivate youth and encourage academic perseverance by offering pedagogical programs that make a difference for the students.

For this unprecedented year, we have done everything we could to make the life of school workers easier with the most flexible projects possible. Therefore, we offer three scenarios: 100% in person, 100% virtual, and a hybrid model. There is also an extracurricular component based on these options. This means activities will continue even if the schools were to close, thus ensuring students and teachers a continuous rollout despite the pandemic.

Favouring Human Contact

Because we believe in the benefits of a strong relationship between the project coordinator, the teachers, and the students, we favour in-person human contact.

However, depending on the reality of school environments and the evolution of the pandemic, projects can also be carried out virtually or in a hybrid way (in person and remotely). To maintain a high-quality pedagogical support, all our project coordinators have received pedagogical training on the best practices to encourage students to get involved remotely and favour interactions.

The scenario chosen among the options described below must be defined by the project coordinators and the teachers.

    1. 100% in person

    2. Completely in person: all learning is done in class, with the project coordinator and the teacher present.

100% virtual

    1. Completely virtual: all the activities are done virtually, via an interactive online platform and with
      the animation of a project coordinator, either live or pre-recorded, as well as the support of the teacher.

Hybrid mode

  1. Augmented in person: learning is done mainly with the students present, but tools and resources are
    available remotely for the students, and some activities are prepared before or after the workshop.
  2. Light in person: most learning is done in person, but some meetings and activities take
    place remotely, via a new interactive online platform.
  3. Reduced in person: some learning is done in person, but most meetings and activities
    take place virtually, via an interactive online platform.

The program allows the students to become familiar with the museum field and all that surrounds the realization of an exhibition. To do this, they will have to create works and showcase them in a local exhibition of which they will be the designers. They will explore different artistic trends and different types of exhibitions. They will learn several artistic techniques such as painting, drawing and sculpture. In large groups and work teams, they will have to create the concept of their exhibition and their works according to a theme and a specific collection of works previously chosen. They will also have to design a virtual or physical model of their exhibition. Finally, they will mount the exhibition they will have designed throughout the year and will organize their opening.

This program provides students with the opportunity to explore the field of environmental design, which undertakes to impact the living spaces of citizens by putting environmental and social concerns at the heart of its practice. Students design and carry out an environmental design project in order to create a legacy for both their school and neighbourhood communities. Throughout the process, students conduct an environmental analysis as well as a public consultation. They then design their project through to 2D and 3D drawings, whether by hand or with a computer, as well as models and photomontages, which will ultimately lead to the actual construction of the project.

They then design their project through to 2D and 3D drawings, whether by hand or with a computer, as well as models and photomontages, which will ultimately lead to the actual construction of the project.

Youth Fusion Formula

Youth Fusion has developed an effective and innovative model that transcends pure mentoring: we hire post-secondary students to work 10 to 30 hours a week with targeted students, in class or in an extracurricular capacity, for 34–37 weeks, i.e. the entire school year, on educational projects spanning 4 different domains (Arts, Science & Engineering, Design and Leadership & Entrepreneurship). In addition to working alongside grade or high schoolers on projects related to their academic field, these post-secondary students develop a close bond with their students, which helps nurture continuity and perseverance.
Employees from businesses and community organizations operating in sectors tied to the projects are also brought in as mentors and assigned to schools to introduce students to career options and to shepherd them through the process of completing their projects. These organizations consequently promote not only “expertise volunteering” among their employees but also the thriving opportunities and the needed skills in their sector. Youth Fusion therefore offers a continuum of interventions ranging from elementary schools to the industry, and contributes to creating closer links between training and employment while working to lower dropout rates.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Youth Fusion’s mission?

Youth Fusion is an award-winning charity that contributes to the perseverance, employability and civic engagement of youth by implementing innovative experiential learning projects that create ongoing links between school systems and the community. Every week, we work with 13,000 youth in over 200 schools in rural, urban, and Indigenous communities.

What is the nature and duration of a Youth Fusion project?

The essence of the work is about the realization of a concrete project developed by youth throughout the school year during weekly activities, carried out mainly in class, distributed on ± 34 weeks. It is an integrative project, structured by a pedagogical framework, integrated with fundamental competencies and interdisciplinary skills. The project develops the employability potential and the professional interests of young people. It also offers the possibility of business visits or other relevant external outings organized in collaboration with the school.

What is the role of the project coordinator?

The project coordinator hired by Youth Fusion is a post-secondary or a recent graduate specializing in a field related to the project. As an expert in their program, they are responsible for the preparation and implementation of activities related to the Youth Fusion pedagogical framework. They facilitate the development of technical skills and guides the youth through the various stages of the project implementation. They also plan the project throughout the year, including logistical components such as assessing accommodation and equipment access requirements as well as outing planning and mentor attendance. To do this, the project coordinator establishes an effective communication channel with the school team (teacher or other staff member) and the program manager.

What is the role of the teacher who is involved in a Youth Fusion project?

As an expert in pedagogy, the role of the teacher is to team up with the project coordinator to provide supportive classroom and behavioural management and support during activity sessions. When the activities are being planned, the teacher proposes modifications to improve the workshops in order to achieve their educational objectives, such as the integration of school subjects and work to be evaluated. They also assist the coordinator in meeting the logistical and administrative needs of the project, such as organizing outings and events and obtaining parental consent permission.

What is the role of the mentor?

In terms of time commitment, Youth Fusion Jeunesse favours between 4 and 6 visits throughout in the school year, depending on the availability of the mentor, the last of which is participation a presence at the final event. These visits represent between 10 and 15 hours throughout the school year which will be devoted to connecting with the youth and their work in an authentic way accompanying the young participants. The continuity of the mentor’s presence within the project enables students to create a positive and meaningful link, thus enabling them to project themselves into future careers.

What are the 14 fundamental competencies of Youth Fusion?

Fundamental competencies represent different skills that are developed and used across the board in all spheres of life. They enable everyone to develop fully as individuals on a personal, professional and social level in order to fully learn from their lived experiences as well as to achieve their goals throughout their life.
In order to deepen the impact of the projects with the youth with whom the coordinators intervene daily, in all its programs, Youth Fusion tries to stimulate the constant and progressive development of 14 fundamental competencies.
