Claudette Roy: The Francophone Perspective and the Social Studies Program of Studies (Part 1)
Duration: 8 minutes, 34 seconds
Claudette Roy discusses the opportunities and challenges offered by the social studies program of studies, specifically the inclusion of the Francophone perspective. Successful implementation of the program requires educators who are open and able to convey rich understandings of citizenship, identity, culture and perspective. An appreciation of multiple perspectives is important to the development of informed, critical citizens. (presentation by Claudette Roy, C.M. at the 2006 Alberta Education Social Studies Summer Institute)
