Quebec: Preparing for an Educational Visit.
Vines, Lois
OMLTA Journal, p36-43 1985
A number of resources are available to teachers planning a student visit to a French Canadian area such as Quebec. A primary one, the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education offers a wide range of information on French Canadian language and culture, including instructional modules designed for use in English-language classes in Canada. These modules cover topics such as: French as spoken in Canada, focusing on phonological variations from standard spoken French; interviews with French Canadian teenagers about school, families, and their goals in life; Canadian history and national and provincial politics, including current issues such as separatism; and French-Canadian popular and folk singers. Other materials of interest to teachers include teacher-oriented listening and reading materials on Canadian French; works by French-Canadian authors; and guides to the arts in French Canada. Summer programs for American teachers and professional association opportunities for teacher experiences abroad are also available. (MSE)
