6 PART ONE General Information
7
8 1. Role of the atlas in teaching and learning Atlases are everyday reference books that may be considered basic instructional materials. While there are some maps in geography and history and citizenship textbooks, an atlas is still essential for the development of the subject-specific competencies in the social sciences as presented in the Québec Education Program (QEP). In the QEP for elementary education, from Cycle Two on, the atlas is seen as a resource that allows students to become aware of the connections between social, territorial, political, economic and historical phenomena. This is confirmed in secondary education, which involves observing the organization of territories, interpreting phenomena related to them, doing research and developing techniques such as using an atlas. As a reference work, an atlas should: provide a broad variety of maps on different scales and themes, allowing students to make observations and comparisons between different times and places and do geographic or historical analyses provide different methods of representation (cut-away views, landscapes, composite maps, etc.) of space and time make it possible to observe the spatial and temporal distribution of the phenomena studied make it possible to place geographic and historical phenomena accurately present various types of information: o physical aspects (climates, major landforms, hydrographic and physiographic features, etc.) o human aspects (populations, religions, natural resources, economy, urbanization, industry, tourism, etc.) present information in a way that allows students to perceive relationships and draw their own conclusions about the assets and constraints of the societies and territories studied help students become familiar with the content of the maps (title, scale, legend, orientation) 3
9 2. Prerequisites for approval To be eligible for approval, an atlas must meet the following conditions: The atlas corresponds to the definition of a reference work for everyday use This type of atlas consists of maps, graphs, tables, photographs, short texts, etc., related to the social sciences subject area of the QEP. The atlas has been designated as instructional material The front matter states the target readership, the discipline and the series, where applicable. The work contains no advertising for textbooks or other works. The atlas does not refer in any way to workbooks It contains no references to activities or exercises, nor any explicit or implicit incentive to use any workbook or reproducible sheets. The atlas has a recommended type of binding The atlas has a type of binding that meets the guidelines of the Direction des ressources didactiques. Documents to be provided With every application for approval, the publisher must provide a form attesting to the quality of language (linguistic review), scientific accuracy (scientific review) and conformity to the rules for using the International System of Units (SI) and to certain writing standards (standards review). 4
10 3. Evaluation of atlases Once the atlas has been judged eligible for approval, its content is evaluated with regard to the following aspects: pedagogical aspects: o criterion 1: development of subject-specific competencies and coverage of the essential knowledge and/or program content in the social sciences in elementary and/or secondary education o criterion 2: currency, accuracy and objectivity of the content o criterion 3: quality of the language used and suitability for the age of the students targeted digital aspects: pedagogical aspects related to the use of digital technology, technical aspects, mediarelated aspects, safety aspects and advertising material aspects: paper, typesetting, printing, layout, tools for locating information, illustrations social and cultural aspects: minority groups, gender, personal and social characteristics, interactions among characters, non-sexist language religious aspects: moral and religious values, where applicable conventions: rules and conventions of toponymy 1 The list of atlases that meet the conditions and have been approved will be published on the Web site of the BAMD. Atlases that partially meet the conditions related to the discipline or disciplines involved will be identified as such in the list of approved works. 4. Duration of approval of atlases In order that atlases reflect political, social and territorial reality as much as possible, the duration of approval of an atlas is seven years. Approval may be renewed if the atlas is still current at the end of this period. 1 Section 128 of the Charter of the French Language. 5

14 Pedagogical Aspects ELEMENTARY EDUCATION: Geography, History and Citizenship Education First criterion: The content on the societies and/or territories studied enables the development of the subject-specific competencies in the social sciences subject area of the QEP. Element 1.1 Pertinence of the illustrations, texts and maps in terms of the development of the subjectspecific competencies of the Geography, History and Citizenship Education program Points for Analysis Maps, texts, illustrations and photographs provide information that serves to develop the subject-specific competencies of the elementary Geography, History and Citizenship Education program. a) Short texts accompanying the visual elements raise questions and explain social and territorial phenomena. b) The information in the texts and the visual elements is organized so as to allow connections to be made between the territories and the societies studied. c) Texts, maps, illustrations, graphs, diagrams and statistics make it possible to work on all the key features of each of the competencies. d) The historical and geographic maps are of various types (physiographic, topographic, hydrographic, political, statistical, etc.), depending on the societies studied. 9
15 Element 1.1 Pertinence of the illustrations, texts and maps in terms of the development of the subjectspecific competencies of the Geography, History and Citizenship Education program Points for Analysis Maps, texts, illustrations and photographs are directly related to the essential knowledge in the elementary Geography, History and Citizenship Education program. a) These elements present the social and territorial organization of the societies studied in the periods chosen as the starting point. b) These elements present the changes in social and territorial organization that have taken place in these societies in the new periods chosen (the same society in different periods). c) These elements present differences in organization in relation to other societies studied in the same period. d) There is information related to the essential knowledge on each of the societies and each of the territories studied. 10
16 Pedagogical Aspects SECONDARY EDUCATION: Geography, Cycle One First criterion: The content on the societies and/or territories studied enables the development of the subject-specific competencies in the social sciences subject area of the QEP. Element 1.2 Pertinence of the maps, texts, illustrations and photographs in terms of the development of the subject-specific competencies of the Geography program Points for Analysis Maps, texts, illustrations and photographs provide information that serves to develop the subject-specific competencies of the secondary Geography program. a) Photographs of landscapes show characteristics of the five types of territories and of the types of territorial organization studied. b) Short texts raise questions and supplement the maps and landscapes. c) Thematic maps cover a territorial issue for each designated focus. d) Thematic maps of the world make it possible to study global geographic phenomena. e) The same type of territorial organization is presented in its relationship to other territories, allowing connections to be made between the local, regional, national and international scales (e.g. Montréal and the island, Montréal and the metropolitain area, Montréal and the province of Québec, Montréal and Canada, and Montréal and the world). f) Maps, representations of landscapes, graphs, diagrams and statistics make it possible to work on all the key features of the competencies. g) There are various kinds of maps (political, thematic, statistical, hydrographic, etc.) of Québec, Canada and the world. 11
