THE IMPORTANCE OF THE SOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITIES CURRICULUM
The discipline of social sciences and humanities in the Ontario secondary school curriculum encompasses five subject areas:
Social Sciences: Explore individual and collective human behaviour and needs as well as patterns and trends in society. Courses in this area shed light on a variety of social structures, institutions, relationships, and power dynamics.
Equity studies
Family studies
General Social Sciences
Humanities: Explore fundamental questions and ideas about human nature and the human condition.
Philosophy
World Religions
They all systematically explore the ways in which individuals influence and are influenced by families, communities, cultures, institutions, and societies, and by ideas, norms, and values.
Students in social sciences and humanities develop a critical lens through which they can build their awareness of and make decisions with respect to critical issues in our increasingly complex, multifaceted, and diverse society.
Study of this discipline helps to build understanding about individuals, families, and diverse groups – what people think, how they live, and how we all interact with one another and the world around us.
Knowledge and understanding developed through the study of social sciences and humanities can help inform discussion on critical social, cultural, economic, technological, environmental, and wellness issues, and can provide a strong foundation for vibrant, healthy, and engaged citizenship.
