  • The Hall-Dennis Report, officially titled Living and Learning: The Report of the Provincial Committee on Aims and Objectives of Education in the Schools of Ontario, called for broad reforms to Ontario education to empower teachers and the larger community and to put students' needs and dignity at the centre of education. The report was commissioned by Ontario Education Minister Bill Davis in 1965 and delivered to him in 1968. Multiple attempts were made to implement it in the 1970s. The common name for the report comes from its two co-chairman: Emmett Hall, a judge of the Supreme Court of Canada, and L.A. Dennis, a former school principal. The report cautioned that form can overtake function and that new educational programs must be constantly reappraised. Large-scale experiments were done in the 1970s, including team teaching and open classrooms. The teaching of history became more student-centred, with more awareness of searching for truth. There was also an increased sensitivity to marginalized peoples. (en)
