Stimulating LESs

(Learning and Evaluation Situations)

Both Chain of Life programs include a learning and evaluation situation (LES) in line with the Quebec government programs.

 

In doing the LES, students learn the correct information about organ and tissue donation and explore true stories. They are then encouraged to form their own enlightened, personal opinion on this important current issue and share it with their parents, thus becoming ambassadors of family discussions about organ and tissue donation. As well, students are made aware of just how invaluable it is to have a healthy body.

The LES for ESL/EESL was created by a team of seasoned pedagogues and then field-tested. The scientific information was validated by Transplant Quebec.

As for the ELA program, it is currently being written and is scheduled to be field tested in Spring 2021, conditions permitting. This LES is based on that from the ESL/EESL program and both share the same values.

Training sessions will be given to present and explain the LES.

The ELA Program

(English Language Arts)

This Chain of Life program is designed for the anglophone sector. The material is akin to that produced for the ESL/EESL program in the francophone sector.
