Social Studies 10 Introduction:
·
Overview:
Students will explore the multiple perspectives on
the origins of globalization and the local, national and international impacts
of globalization on lands, cultures, economies, human rights and quality of
life. Students will examine the relationships among globalization, citizenship
and identity to enhance skills for citizenship in a globalizing world. The
infusion of multiple perspectives will allow students to examine the effects of
globalization on peoples in Canada and throughout the world, including the
impact on Aboriginal and Francophone communities.
Rational:
Globalization, the process by which the world's
citizens are becoming increasingly connected and interdependent, demands that
students explore responsibilites associated with local and global citizenship
and formulate individual responses to emergent issues related to globalization.
Recognizing and appreciating the influence of globalization will lead students
to develop individual and collective responses to emergent issues.
