Promoting Internationalism

Students explain the importance of an organization that promotes internationalism and how it has supported the political, economic or cultural interests of a specific group of people, a nation or a country.

Focuses for Assessment: How the Outcomes Are Grouped

The Summative Assessment Task: Promoting Internationalism  and accompanying rubric  address the following focuses for assessment and corresponding specific outcomes from the Knowledge and Employability Social Studies 20-4 Program of Studies. Skills and Processes outcomes are clustered with Values and Attitudes outcomes and Knowledge and Understanding outcomes to provide robust opportunities for student learning. The Focuses for Assessment articulate what students will do to provide evidence of learning.  Formative assessment opportunities within the suggested activities provide ways to support students in reaching the learning goals.
