- B.
Private, religious & to save souls
- C.

Correct Answer
B. Private, religious & to save soulsExplanation
During the French Regime, Quebec Education was characterized by a private and religious system that aimed to save souls. This suggests that education was primarily provided by religious institutions, such as the Catholic Church, and had a strong focus on instilling religious values and beliefs in the students. The emphasis on saving souls implies that education was seen as a means of spiritual salvation rather than just acquiring knowledge or skills. This private and religious nature of education during the French Regime reflects the influence of the Catholic Church in shaping the educational system in Quebec.Rate this question:

New programs for all levels

D. Cross curricular competencies becoming commentsExplanation
In 1997, the major curricular elements of the QEP that were not renewed were the cross curricular competencies becoming comments. This means that the QEP no longer emphasized the development of cross curricular competencies, but instead focused on providing comments or feedback on the students' performance in different areas. This change may have been made to shift the focus towards more specific and measurable objectives, rather than the broader cross curricular approach.Rate this question:

- A.
Skill
- B.
Knowledge
- C.
Behavior
Correct Answer
B. KnowledgeExplanation
The current curricular reform suggests that there is an imbalance in the educational system, with too much focus on competency and not enough emphasis on knowledge. While competency is important, it is equally essential for students to acquire a strong foundation of knowledge in various subjects. This knowledge forms the basis for critical thinking, problem-solving, and overall intellectual growth. By prioritizing knowledge, students can develop a deeper understanding of concepts and apply them effectively in real-life situations.Rate this question:
