Students learn about various expressions of Canadian identity, the stories of individuals and communities, and changes in political and social structures. Students discover the importance in historical studies of chronology and cause-and-effect relationships. As well, they are given opportunities to formulate appropriate questions, develop informed opinions, and present information in a variety of ways. The combination of content and skills allows students to be citizens who can apply these skills in their everyday lives and who are aware of the historical importance of contemporary events. How This Course Supports The Ontario Catholic School Graduate ExpectationsOne of the strongest themes found in the teachings of the Catholic Church concerns social justice. This theme relates to a number of issues raised in this course. The respect for human rights includes the respect for individual rights, aboriginal rights, labour rights, women’s rights, and cultural group rights. The teachings of Christ concerning the need for community are reflected in Canada’s constant struggle to define that community. This course presents students with historic events faced by Canadians and interprets them in the light of the gospel teachings such as social justice and toleration. Students recognize that there are certain values that transcend history and are still relevant for the future. Students recognize that the story of Canada is not simply dates, events, and personalities but also the struggle to incorporate values in the face of rapid changes and challenges in the nation. That struggle reminds students of their call to individual responsibility. Unit Titles (Time + Sequence)
