Canadian History Report Card
The Dominion Institute has just released an inter-provincial comparison of Canadian high school history curricula. Not one province gets an ‘A’ in the Canadian History Report Card. Quebec, believe it or not, is a good student of our history and gets the highest mark—a B+. Ontario scores a B, but Alberta, Saskatchewan, NFLD & PEI get F’s!
The report card on history is very similar to SQE’s cross-Canada comparison of K-12 science curricula: Teaching Science in the 21st Century. I guess when it comes to science, Alberta has it figured out because it was the only province to get an A grade in our study.
It would be great if more of these studies could be carried out in other subject areas. Math would be a great one to tackle at next. Well readers, what do you think?
