Lifelong learning is a key component of active citizenship. At W.P. Wagner, we encourage students to learn about and understand their rights and responsibilities as global citizens through the use of technology, open discourse and active participation in the democratic process. By connecting our classrooms to the world outside, students are encouraged to think critically, make informed decisions and engage with emerging global challenges.
Social 10C (Combined) puts all students in the same space and allows them to understand whether the 10-1 or 10-2 stream is most beneficial for their learning needs. Students enrolled in this course will finish with credits in either 10-1 or 10-2, depending on which course best highlights their strengths and abilities. A minimum mark of 50% in the previous Social Studies course completed is highly recommended.
These courses are also available at the AP level.
Social Studies 20-1 and 30-1 allow students to explore the meaning and effects of globalization, nationalism and ideologies. Students will also develop enhanced critical thinking abilities and advanced essay writing skills. Achievement in the -1 stream fulfills entrance requirements for post-secondary. A minimum mark of 65% in the previous Social Studies course completed is strongly recommended.
These courses are also available at the AP level.
Social Studies 10-2, 20-2 and 30-2 fulfills the minimum requirement for an Alberta High School Diploma, and can be used as a prerequisite for many post-secondary institutions or trades.
