Découvrez le patrimoine et les traditions des Innus à travers leurs histoires et leur culture matérielle.

Les révolutions permettent de changer les lois et les institutions dans la société. Certaines révolutions – comme la Révolution française – ont aboli la monarchie et établi la république. D’autres révolutions – comme la révolution iranienne – ont remplacé des monarchies par des théocraties. Et d’autres révolutions encore – comme la révolution russe – ont remplacé des sociétés à économie de marché par des sociétés socialistes. Et la liste pourrait continuer. Bien que chaque révolution soit unique, une chose est claire : depuis qu’il y a des gouvernements, il y a eu des révolutions. Mais qu’est-ce qu’une révolution? Que pouvons nous apprendre d’une révolution? Et une révolution est-elle la seule façon d’obtenir un changement important?

This is a self-assessment tool that is designed for administrators to use to reflect on their schools’ success in supporting smooth transitions for students. We know that schools are generally welcoming to students who arrive in September or at other expected transition times, but sometimes in the hectic world of schools the important work to welcome, orient and support new students is overlooked. Many students who transfer at unexpected times are in challenging circumstances and need transition support. I encourage you to support your school administrators in establishing strong communication and relationship protocols that support smooth student transitions. See the preamble and the rubric itself for further details.
