Social Studies 30-2

To what extent should we embrace an ideology? This question will guide you as you explore what an ideology is, and how it forms. You’ll also consider issues such as the relationship between identity and ideology as you investigate liberalism and the values attached to it and explore your personal rights, roles, and responsibilities as a citizen. This is the third and final course in the stream for students who want to achieve the basic Social Studies requirements. 

There is a supervised midterm and final exam in this course as well as a diploma exam. Both the course mark and diploma exam mark are required for a final mark to appear on your transcript.

In order for a student to be successful in this course, VVS requires a minimum of 50% in Social Studies 20-2 or 40% in Social Studies 20-1. Only one prerequisite is required.
