Quoi de neuf ? - Fédération des commissions scolaires du Québec:
"Statistiques encourageantes concernant le décrochage scolaire
Selon un nouveau rapport de Statistique Canada, le taux de décrochage au secondaire a considérablement diminué depuis le début des années 1990. Les filles ont fait plus de progrès en cette matière que les garçons et le taux de décrochage chez les élèves qui vivent dans les régions rurales et les petites localités demeure plus élevé que dans les régions urbaines. Le rapport indique, qu'au Québec, les taux de décrochage ont atteint plus de 10 %, en moyenne, au cours des trois dernières années. Cependant, ces taux ont affiché une baisse par rapport à leur niveau du début des années 1990, alors qu'ils oscillaient entre 16 % et 17 %.

And what are you reading?:
The Colloque national sur le livre et la lecture will take place on April 3 and 4, 2006. The objective of the conference is to increase awareness among elementary and secondary school staff, educational consultants, librarians, documentation technicians and volunteer parents of the essential role that reading plays in young people’s success.
Participants will receive the pedagogical support they need to adopt effective pedagogical strategies and to fulfill their role as mediators, guides and cultural brokers. The conference will also facilitate the sharing of experiences related to books and reading and the pooling of resources that participants can reuse in their schools.
Finally, this event will make it possible to establish partnerships among the various stakeholders so that the best possible resources are available to students.

:::CEA::: Are students ready for a technology rich world?
Canadian Education Association: "February 07, 2006
Are Students Ready for a Technology-Rich World?
Results of an OECD Study
School students who are established computer users tend to perform better in key school subjects than those with limited experience or a lack of confidence in their ability to perform basic computer functions, according to a new OECD report. The study “Are students ready for a technology-rich world?” provides the first internationally comparative data in this area, based on OECD’s PISA 2003 assessment of educational performance by 15-year olds. It backs up previous OECD analysis about the importance of computers in schools.
Nearly three out of four students on average in OECD countries - and in Canada, Iceland and Sweden nine out of 10 – use computers at home several times each week. In contrast, only 44% use computers frequently at school. In some countries, the discrepancy between home and school use is marked: Germany has the lowest percentage of frequent computer users at school among OECD countries (23%) but a high proportion of frequent users at home (82%). The relationship with student performance in mathematics is striking. Students who have used computers for several years mostly perform better than average. By contrast, those who don’t have access to computers or who have been using computers for only a short time tend to lag behind their class year.
The results of the study are available as a full report or as a Powerpoint which summarizes the findings.

In Summer 2003, Think Literacy: Cross-Curricular Approaches, Grades 7 –12 was developed by a writing team, commissioned by the Expert Panel on Students at Risk (Literacy), to support teachers as they use reading, writing and oral communication approaches in their classrooms.
In Summer 2004, teams of subject experts wrote additional subject-specific examples to help teachers combine the teaching of reading, writing and oral communication skills with their subject content.
In Summer 2005, teams of subject experts again wrote additional subject-specific examples to help teachers combine the teaching of reading, writing and oral communication skills with their subject content.
The project was sponsored by:

The site offers many documents related to literacy, for download in WORD and PDF formats.

Conformément à la société qui se transforme et évolue, le monde de l’éducation vit à l’heure du renouveau pédagogique – et ceci est encore plus vrai pour l’ordre d’enseignement secondaire où la réforme prend effet cette année. L’ensemble de ces changements nous oblige à nous adapter aux nouvelles exigences de ce 3e millénaire qui nécessitent que nous passions de la
transmission de connaissances au développement de compétences. C’est pourquoi, le thème du
«Parce que le présent oriente le futur ! », est axé sur la réussite éducative par le développement de compétences transversales et disciplinaires.
Nous sommes maintenant passés de l’ère du savoir à l’ère du savoir-apprendre, du savoir-être et du savoir-agir. Dorénavant l’acquisition de connaissances n’est plus suffisante parce que les jeunes et les adultes doivent mobiliser, dans leur quotidien et tout au long de leur vie, une diversité de compétences.
Le Colloque 2006 sur l’approche orientante est donc un lieu privilégié pour prendre connaissance des approches novatrices, des nouveaux projets développés et des innovations en cours tant sur les plans théorique que pratique.
