Assessment and Evaluation
The Career Education curriculum contributes to students’ development as educated citizens that can adapt to ongoing change with purposeful career-life development. It reflects on learning experiences both in and out of school and recognizes the importance of experiential learning, guidance from mentors, and community involvement.
The curriculum requires students to complete 30+ hours of paid or unpaid work-experience as well as a culminating Capstone research project presented in their grade 12 year.
Assessment
Modules are assessed on two criteria and the combined points value is the grade assigned to weekly work. The cumulative points for all modules in a given term will determine a students overall grade in the course.
