In Socials 9, students will focus on how revolutions and changes in ideology and policy can profoundly influence societies. By looking at a selection of events from 1750-1919 and examining their impact on BC, Canada and the world, students will explore how collective identity is constructed and can change over time. This course will focus on topics such as immigration, aboriginal identity, global and national conflicts, and the development of national identities while also considering the importance of geography and natural resources in the building of nations.
