The Faculty of Education is honoured to share the impact our graduates and alumni have made in Memorial Univerisity's Centennial 100. The Centennial 100 celebrates students, alumni, faculty, staff and supporters who have made a world of difference at our university and who have helped our university make a difference in the world. Ms. Brenda Jeddore is being celebrated for her contributions as a Creator, the artists, teachers and thinkers who inspire us.  

After graduating from the B. Ed program in 1980, Ms. Jeddore started working at St. Anne's School in Conne River. She formed choirs and translated hymns into Mi'kmaw with the help of community elders. After the establishment of Miawpukek First Nation, she returned to further integrate Mi’kmaw language and traditions into education. Through dedication and collaboration, her students gained national and international recognition.

Education is a lifelong pursuit. 

Professionals with degrees in education work as teachers and post-secondary instructors, school and institutional administrators, curriculum designers, health care practitioners, student affairs and services practitioners, policy makers, and more.

Teaching and research changes lives, it affects people and can help communities grow. Our programs are cutting edge and focus on teaching and learning, continuing teacher education, educational counselling, adult and post-secondary instruction, policy and practice, and research.

There’s no better place than here for starting or continuing your journey of making a difference through Education.
