Social Studies 10 Core Competency Edublog Reflection

What is the role of the citizen of Canada? Explain the role of the citizen in the community and the nation, and as a member of the world community.

Contributing towards community is an important role for a citizen. Building community leads to a better place all around. Being able to collaborate with people around you and creating something better than yourselves is a really beautiful thing. I believe community is important because it’s a rare moment where people can all be brought together to do something.

I can tell the difference between opinions and facts.

Through the course of socials 10 I’ve been able to identify the difference between opinion and fact. There have been several cases where we have needed to sort through evidence to determine specific characteristics of the paper. Before socials 10 I feel like my ability to do this was a bit weaker, but I’ve been able to do it better as the course has gone on.
