VOCABULARY USED
A program is an integrated set of learning activities leading to the achievement of educationalobjectives based on set standards. Objectives
The objectives of general education determine the results expected of the students. Theacheivement of the objective and the respect of the standard ensure the acquisition or the masteryof the college-level general education competencies. Each objective is formulated in terms of acompetency and includes a statement of the competency and its elements. Statement of the competency
The statement of the competency is a result of the analysis of the needs of general education. Elements
The elements of the objective specify its essential components. They include only what isnecessary in order to understand and achieve the competency. Standard
The standard is the level of performance at which an objective is considered to be achieved(R glement sur le r gime des tudes coll giales, article 1). It is by attaining the objectives andstandards that the students acquire or master the college-level general education comptencies. Performance criteria
The performance criteria define the requirements for recognition of the standard. All theperformance criteria must be respected for the objective to be attained. Learning activities
The aspects of learning activities which the minister can determine in whole or in part are thefield of studies, the discipline or disciplines, the course weighting, the number of contact hours,the number of course credits, the learning sequence and such specific indications as are deemedessential. THE GOALS OF GENERAL EDUCATION
In Qu bec, college is the next stage after the compulsory years of schooling (elementary andsecondary school) during which students acquire basic knowledge and skills. It represents amajor crossroads in that there is greater emphasis on the cultural aspect of academic subjectsand leads students directly to the labour market or to university. The college system isresponsive to current needs with respect to technical and pre-university education. It allowsstudents to further their education without, however, narrowing their options, since they mayswitch from one type of program to the other. Finally, it provides students with a well-rounded, balanced education.
Each college program features a general education component that is common to allprograms, one that is adapted to the specific field of study, and one that is complementary. The goals of general education are to provide students with a common cultural core, to helpthem learn and develop generic skills, and to foster desirable attitudes. The desired outcomesare to educate students, to prepare them for their role as responsible members of society andto enable them to share in the common cultural heritage. The Common Cultural Core
Transmission of the common cultural core is aimed at allowing students to develop or acquirethe following:
fl mastery of the language of instruction as a tool for communication and reflection, and
mastery of the basic rules of rational thought, discourse and argumentation;
fl the ability to communicate in other languages, primarily French or English;fl openness to the world and to cultural diversity;fl appreciation of the riches of their cultural heritage through familiarization with the
fl the ability to situate themselves with respect to the major schools of thought;fl the ability to think critically, independently and reflectively;fl personal and social ethics;fl mastery of knowledge relevant to the development of physical and intellectual well-being;fl awareness of the need to develop habits conducive to good health. Generic Skills
General education allows students to acquire and develop the following generic skills:fl conceptualization, analysis and synthesis;fl coherent reasoning;fl critical judgment;fl articulate expression;fl the ability to apply what they have learned in analyzing situations;
fl the ability to apply what they have learned in determining appropriate action;fl mastery of work methods;fl the ability to reflect on what they have learned. Desirable Attitudes
Cultural literacy and generic skills help students to acquire and develop the following attitudes:fl autonomy;fl a critical sense;fl awareness of their responsibilities toward themselves and others;fl openmindedness;fl creativity;fl openness to the world.
These outcomes apply to the three general education components, more specifically:fl General education common to all programs, which is allotted 16 2/3 credits distributed as
language of instruction and literature: 7 1/3 credits;
humanities or philosophie: 4 1/3 credits;
fl General education adapted to programs, which introduces tasks or learning situations that are
relevant to the field of study. The breakdown of credits, for a total of 6, is as follows:
language of instruction and literature: 2 credits;
humanities or philosophie: 2 credits;
fl Complementary general education, which allows students to complete their training with
learning activities chosen with a view to achieving balance and complementarity in relationto the program-specific component. Students may choose courses for a total of 4 credits inthe following areas:
mathematics literacy and computer science;
The general and the specific education components are designed to contribute to studentseducation in an integrative fashion. In other words, the knowledge and skills transmitted in onecomponent are reinforced and, whenever possible, reapplied in the other.
Each college-level institution must provide such general education through learning activitiesthat are consistent with its educational project, within the framework of the stated outcomes, thegiven subject areas and ministerial guidelines.
All the sets of objectives and standards in the general education component are developed inkeeping with the provisions of the College Education Regulations (R.S.Q., c. C-29, s. 18; 1993,c. 25, s. 11). Revised Edition, August 1998. EDUCATIONAL INTENTIONS OF GENERAL EDUCATION GENERAL EDUCATION COMMON TO ALL PROGRAMS AND GENERAL EDUCATION ADAPTED TO PROGRAMS
English, Language of Instruction and Literature
General Education Common to All Programs
The three sets of objectives and standards in English, Language of Instruction and Literature,pursue two general goals˚: mastery of the language of instruction and exploration of theriches of the literary heritage. Achievement of these goals is intended to bring the students toa college level of proficiency in the areas of reading, writing, listening and speaking. Building on the skills developed by students on completion of secondary school, the Englishprogramme places a marked emphasis on written production and reading comprehensionwhile at the same time consolidating listening and speaking skills.
The mastery of language skills will be achieved through regular and ongoing observance ofthe rules of correct writing and speaking and the production of texts supported by readingand the study of literature. Students will also be encouraged to develop an appreciation ofliterature by becoming acquainted with a number of significant literary works representativeof various genres and periods and expressing a variety of literary themes. Both the aestheticand cultural value of these texts and their formal aspects will be the objects of study.
All students entering college will begin their English studies with an introductory set ofobjectives and standards. This set has two possible formats. While both provide a range ofreading, writing and literary activities, one includes additional reinforcement of reading andwriting skills. General Education Adapted to Programs
The set of objectives and standards for English, Language of Instruction and Literature, isplaced in the context of general education and is a complement to the general educationcommon to all programs. Students will develop the skills required in order to communicate inthe forms of discourse appropriate to their field of study. Outcome Objectives
Students who have achieved the general education objectives in English, Language ofInstruction and Literature, will be able to :fl Demonstrate a college level of proficiency in the areas of reading, writing, listening and
fl Develop their own ideas into arguments and theses, organize them and edit their work. fl Understand basic vocabulary and terminology used when discussing literature. fl Analyze literary works. Humanities
Humanities, as part of the core curriculum, is intended to promote personal and socialdevelopment and to give students a foundation that will help them understand their roles incontemporary society as members of the labour force, citizens, and individuals. The three sets ofobjectives and standards in Humanities propose common frameworks for understanding theexperiences, ideas and values of humankind and their diversity. They are aimed at developingcritical thinking, reinforcing the ancillary skills involved in careful reading, organized writing,and well-developed oral presentations, and, where appropriate, improving media and computerliteracy. Once students have mastered the three-stage process of analysis, synthesis andevaluation, they will be able to reflect in an informed manner and to communicate what theyhave learned in an organized and coherent fashion. Principles
1 ) Humanities constitutes a thematic, multidisciplinary, at times transdisciplinary,
exploration of humankind, including its accomplishments, failures, abilities, creations,ideas, and values.
2) Humanities helps students to recognize, define and classify information and provides
them with common frameworks for diverse methods of analyzing, synthesizing andevaluating conceptions of society, knowledge and values.
3) Humanities aims to prepare students for common civic responsibilities and the exercise of
4 ) Humanities pursues the general goal of developing critical thought, valuing it, and
Outcome Objectives
Students who have achieved the general education objectives in Humanities willbe able to :
fl Describe, explain and organize main elements, ideas, values and implications of a world
fl Recognize the basic elements in a specific example of the organization, transmission, and
fl Define the dimensions, limits, and uses of knowledge in appropriate historical contexts. fl Identify, organize and synthesize the salient elements of a particular example of
fl Situate important ethical and social issues in their appropriate historical and intellectual
fl Explain, analyze and debate ethical issues in a personal and professional context. Sequence of Objectives and Standards
The first two sets of objectives and standards in Humanities, which are part of the generaleducation component common to all programs, develop similar skills in a recursive fashion.
The first set, the emphasis is on how knowledge is defined, acquired, classified, transmitted,and applied. Students examine both messages and media to identify the strengths andlimitations of each. Students learn to situate knowledge in a social, historical and personalcontext, a skill they will need in order to become lifelong learners.
The second set focuses on how individuals, groups, societies or nations organize ideas,perceptions and values into explanatory patterns. Students explore major ideas and valuesystems by which diverse individuals, groups, societies or nations seek to explain the worldand their place in it.
The third set, which is part of the general education component adapted to programs is aimedat deepening and reinforcing the critical thinking skills developed in the first two sets. It is,therefore, sequenced so that students can build on the critical skills, knowledge and insightsdeveloped in the first two sets. By situating these issues in their appropriate world view andknowledge contexts, students develop a critical and autonomous approach to ethical values ingeneral and to the values involved in their own fields of interest in particular. This final setalso provides students with an opportunity to consolidate personal and social values. Fran ais, langue seconde

2) Physical Education enables students to improve their proficiency in an activity and, in
doing so, serves to increase their motivation and perseverance to remain physicallyactive, and makes them aware of the contributing factors. To this end, students use alearning process designed to enhance their aptitudes for a given physical activity (i.e.,their skills and attitudes).
3 ) Physical Education contributes to making students responsible for assuming
responsibility for their health through the maintenance and improvement of their physicalfitness and through the sensible practice of physical activity. Students learn to combinebeing physically active in an effective manner with factors which promote health.
4) Physical Education makes students aware of the importance of sharing the knowledge
they have acquired. The pleasure and sense of well-being students get out of PhysicalEducation classes motivate them to encourage others to be physically active and to adopthealthy behaviours. Outcome Objectives

The three sets of objectives and standards in Physical Education are designed in a learningsequence. The first two are prerequisites for the third.
The first set focuses on the relationship between good health and physical activity as relatedto a healthy lifestyle. Students are required to try one or more activities and to relate them totheir abilities, needs, motivation, lifestyle and knowledge of health promotion. This enablesthem to make an appropriate and justified choice of physical activities.
The second set looks at the improvement of effectiveness through the use of a goal-orientedapproach in a sport, outdoor or expression-oriented activity. After an initial assessment,
students are called upon to evaluate their abilities and attitudes with respect to a physicalactivity, to set goals, and to interpret their progress.
The third set is aimed at bringing students to integrate physical activity into their lifestyle,more particularly through more effective management of factors which facilitate such anintegration. During contact-hours with the teacher, students apply the knowledge they haveacquired in the first two sets. This is done through the safe and effective practice of physicalactivity and through the development, realization and evaluation of a personal physicalactivity program, which students follow and validate under their teacher s supervision. Thehours allotted for personal work enable students to complete their personal program. OBJECTIVES AND STANDARDS : GENERAL EDUCATION COMMON TO ALL PROGRAMS
