  3. Enhancing education: How global Classroom Teachers are navigating artificial intelligence and promoting original student work

Rosedale Global High School Classroom Teachers are the foundation for in-person delivery of our Transformative Approach to Learning that benefits thousands of Rosedale OSSD students across the Rosedale Global High School Partner School Network. Alongside our 65 partners, we hold a responsibility to ensure the Ontario Secondary School Diploma is thoughtfully delivered within our 95 partner schools across 17 countries, and that our global teaching staff is consistently empowered to reshape the future of global education through innovation in academics and technology.

To support ongoing teaching effectiveness, enrich transformative learning, and enhance student performance, we offer a series of annual mandatory training and professional development opportunities to our Classroom Teachers in our partner schools across our Rosedale Global High School Partner School Network.

As part of Rosedale Global High School’s Academic Integrity Month activities this April, Nathalie Rudner, Director of Academics; and Asim Sayed, Head of Teacher Development, delivered a comprehensive Professional Development session on navigating artificial intelligence (AI) in student work. Held on April 16, the interactive Professional Development workshop focused on empowering educators with:

  • Critical knowledge and necessary tools to cultivate a culture of academic integrity in the face of global artificial intelligence concerns, while also emphasizing its relation to academic integrity;
  • Insights into the data and evidence used to determine if a student has used artificial intelligence to complete their work;
  • Strategies for using artificial intelligence appropriately in the classroom and ensuring original student work; and,
  • A clear understanding of the critical intersection of technology and academic integrity, and how these interplay in the everyday work of our Classroom Teachers.
The workshop welcomed 135 Classroom Teachers and prompted a deep conversation and understanding of how AI influences student assignments and assessments; and explored the nuances of detection, analysis, and policy implications. Through live discussions and real-world examples, our Classroom Teachers explored AI’s impact in a global and local context to their individual partner school countries, learned to identify patterns of AI usage in student submissions—particularly in areas such as presentations and scripted audio/video assignments, and discussed the challenges educators face in promoting academic honesty while preparing students for higher education.

The workshop highlighted actionable strategies tailored to the Rosedale Global High School community, including resources that will effectively address AI-related academic integrity issues within their local teaching environment.

Nathalie Rudner, Director of Academics, says, “Equipping our Rosedale OSSD Classroom Teachers with the knowledge and tools to navigate artificial intelligence in student work allows them to be truly empowered in their teaching practice—and to also empower our learners across 17 countries. Together with our Classroom Teachers, Rosedale Global High School ensures our students receive a world-leading secondary education that develops the critical thinking and transformative competencies required for success in a world where artificial intelligence is a commonplace tool.”
Feedback received on the workshop underscores the value of in-depth continuing educational experiences for our Classroom Teachers, and participating teachers commended the session’s focus area for being both timely and well-delivered—and welcomed updated information on topics that bridge technology and education. In an anonymous post-session survey, a Classroom Teacher remarked, “Many thanks for constantly providing us with skills and information for navigating the challenges of AI,” while a second from said, “I appreciate the up-to-date information you’ve been providing us as technology gets more and more advanced.”
Integrating insights, data, and a community-driven approach for our Classroom Teachers helps all of our educators to gain actionable strategies and approved resources to ensure academic honesty is upheld—both in secondary education and as students transition into higher education.
Empowering educators with practical tools and a deeper understanding of AI’s role in student work is critical to today’s education landscape and we continue to foster a culture of integrity and accountability in our Rosedale Global High School Partner School Network.

A partnership between PAREF Southcrest School and Rosedale International Education reinforces a commitment to transformative education, diversity and global citizenship, with the Ontario Secondary School Diploma at the core.

Rosedale International Education and PAREF Southcrest School have signed a partnership to offer the Rosedale Global High School Program to PAREF Southcrest students in the Philippines. PAREF Southcrest School is our first Rosedale Global High School partner school in the Philippines, and we are proud to work with them alongside PAREF (Parents for Education Foundation) Education Group. PAREF Southcrest School is one of sixteen schools within the PAREF Education Group, a non-profit aimed at providing holistic education by combining high academic standards and character formation and has graduated more than 8,000 students in its four-decade-long history. 

This partnership reflects our ongoing commitment to connecting learners with real-world application and innovation in a forward-thinking, rigorous, and collaborative education environment. We’re proud to support PAREF Southcrest School with our differentiated learning solution that offers choice in how students learn, develop competencies, and demonstrate their achievements, and look forward to seeing these students realize their full potential,” says Michelle Cui, Founder and CEO of Rosedale International Education. 

A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed in Cebu, Philippines, in late 2022 with the program beginning in September 2023 and the first cohort eligible for graduation in June 2024. Upon successful completion at this Rosedale Global High School partner school, students will be granted a dual diploma, including a Philippines High School Diploma and Canadian Ontario Secondary School Diploma, allowing graduates the flexibility to apply to higher education institutions around the world. Together, we will expand access to world-renowned Canadian education that empowers students through asset-based learning to design their future and reach their full potential. 

Rosedale International Education operates Rosedale Global High School, and all Rosedale Global High School students across our 17-country partner school network attend the annual Global Student Success Forum, which connects them to more than 35 Global Top 100 Universities at our Elite University Student Recruitment Fair, providing opportunities to meet one-to-one with university admissions and recruitment staff, attend student workshops and Q&A sessions, and become well-prepared for the transition from high school to higher education. 

“Given the drive of PAREF Southcrest to offer our students a world-class education, and become global citizens, we are honored to be the first school in the Philippines to partner with Rosedale Global High School and offer the Ontario Secondary School Diploma. Giving our students the option to have an international diploma like the OSSD, which is recognized by the top universities in the world gives them the chance to have better future career opportunities in any part of the globe, to broaden their perspectives and world views, to create linkages and interact with different cultures, and have a massive international alumni network. This partnership shows a lot of promise in making young people all over the world work together as a catalyst for change and for making the world better,” says Emylou C. Visaya, Executive Director, PAREF Southcrest School. 

Daniel Moran, Chairman of PAREF Education Group says “Academic excellence is a key pillar in the PAREF mission. I would like to congratulate PAREF Southcrest leadership for this wonderful initiative of offering a Canadian international curriculum in the Philippines which can benefit our students and facilitate their academic success. This partnership of PAREF with Rosedale Global High School in offering a dual PAREF-OSSD diploma will help improve our academic standards by making them truly world-class, and provide opportunities for our PAREF students and faculty. Exposing PAREF to the global network of OSSD will be very motivational and bring confidence to our students and teachers. We hope to contribute to this international-global tie-up with the OSSD network and we look forward to a very successful partnership with Rosedale Global High School.
