Course Description:

Food Studies is a curriculum designed to teach about foods and nutrition. The mission is both educational and preventive. The skills and knowledge taught in this curriculum will increase resourcefulness of students and help them to develop self-reliance and independence. The curriculum is also designed to provide opportunity for achievement and success at projects and activities that in turn builds self-image and increases self-confidence. The curriculum ideas and learning objectives develop skills necessary for life.

The Foods Studies curriculum combines academic and practical foods experiences and is an option for all students. The study of foods is important because every person must eat to live. As well, the preparation of food whether at school or at home can be a creative, interesting, enjoyable, and rewarding experience.

Many students are responsible for meal preparation at home. With the increasing number of single parent families and working parents, meal preparation is often the responsibility of younger family members. Knowledge and understanding of basic food preparation and nutrition is important in order to make healthy food choices for individual and family well-being.

Knowledge about nutrition is an important component of a healthy lifestyle. Food-related health problems and eating disorders are major health concerns in Canada. The impact of eating highly refined, processed foods is affecting our short and long term health. Damage caused by poor nutrition is cumulative and often begins with poor food habits in childhood. A study of food can expose students to accurate information as well as provide opportunities for students to gain competence in making informed, reasoned choices.

Traditional food preparation skills are being lost in today's fast paced lifestyles. Much of the food consumed is fast foods, partly prepared foods, or food eaten away from home. Time constraints and the effects of advertising have dramatically changed the types of foods prepared and eaten. Contrary to advertising claims, the preparation of nutritious foods does not have to be time consuming or difficult. Less preparation at home means less transfer and reinforcement of food preparation skills. Students need the opportunity to learn and practise preparation techniques in the classroom or in the workplace.

Course Description:

Law is considered to be part of social science education, which refers to the disciplines that deal with the characteristic elements of human society. The Law 30 course is designed to assist students to become active, informed and productive citizens who know and understand their legal rights and responsibilities. Through the course, students develop an understanding of the concept of rule of law, and learn that the law reflects, and is shaped by, society's values and attitudes regarding social and human relationships. The course begins by developing students' understanding of the abstract nature of law, its sources and purposes. The abstract nature of law is made relevant through study of the concrete application of law to current legal issues in Canada and the global community. Topics addressed include foundations of Canada's legal system, criminal and civil law, family law, employment and labour law, contract and consumer law, environmental law and international law.

Goals

The general goals of the Law 30 program are to help students to:

• understand that law is part of everyday life
• understand fundamental legal principles, practices and consequences
• recognize, accept and act upon their legal rights and responsibilities
• develop knowledge, skills and positive attitudes about the law
• develop problem-solving and decision-making skills with regard to legal issues and problems
• develop critical analysis and dialectical thinking skills, including the ability to evaluate and resolve law-related issues
• communicate effectively to share their understanding and ideas, and to share and defend their opinions
• develop an appreciation of the individual's ability to influence the law
• explore law-related career opportunities and options
• develop skills in working independently, as well as collaboratively and cooperatively.

Course Description:

All young people need to understand the interrelationship among individuals, the business world, and government. All young people need competencies that will enable them to manage their own lives and careers effectively. They should be able to manage personal finances; act appropriately according to their rights and responsibilities as citizens; process information effectively and efficiently; make sound decisions about life choices and careers; and, participate constructively as both consumers and producers. These general competencies should be coupled with those that may lead to employment in business and to taking advanced business studies at the post-secondary level.

With the escalating availability of data and information, the Canadian marketplace is an increasingly complex and changing forum of which every member of society is a part. Individuals preparing for all types of adult responsibilities require a sound understanding of how to create, access, use, and manage information. The integration of keyboarding, communication, management, and computer applications proposed in this curriculum will assist students to make the transition to adulthood and lifelong learning.
