Prof. Marie Josée Berger, 
University of Ottawa, Canada

 
Marie Josée Berger was a professor at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto. She is now a professor, and has been the Dean, at the Faculty of Education, University of Ottawa. In addition to her expertise in reading, Marie Josée Berger has worked in teaching, learning evaluation, and professional development (specifically for minority communities). She has played a major role in the improving of Ontario’s curriculum, both at the elementary and secondary levels. She has not only contributed to linguistic actualization, French-language development, and to the growth of the French programs through the editing of memoirs, but has also been involved in the training of teachers in order to encourage reform. 
Her most recent research centers on the portfolio, language skills, as well as on specialized reading intervention from Kindergarten to Grade 8. In cooperation with the Ministry of Education, she has developed a frame of reference for reading that has enabled the training of reading specialists in minority communities and the creation of reading intervention material.
Dr. Berger has been the principal investigator for diverse projects for the Ontario Ministry of Education as well as for the Council of Ontario Directors of Education and the Literacy and Numeracy Secretariat of the Ministry of Community and Social Services. Most of the projects are related to curriculum implementation.
