Curriculum document
on AIDS is released
The Ministry of Education has
released a draft curriculum docu-
Big year ends
for co-op plan
The Co-operative Education pro-
gram, which began modestly in 1982
with 12 students from Strathroy
D.C.I., has burgeoned this year to en-
compass all five Middlesex county
high schools and included 120
students.
lligh school students must be at
least 16 .years old and have a
minimum of 16 credits before par-
ticipating in Co-operative Education.
The program allows them to receive
school credits for the work they per-
form in career -related, past -time jobs
at commercial, industrial and service
businesses. Following job interviews,
students and employers are
'cooperatively' matched according to
their needs and interests.
Before joining the Co-op program,
students usually have some credits in
career -related courses. For example,
a student who wants to become a
nurse would already have credits in
Family Studies or a student who plans
on becoming an accountant would
have credits in accounting. These
students spend a half day in classes
and the other half with the employer
observing and learning on the job.
At the end of a five month session
( September to late January or
February to late June) the student
earns two credits for the work ex-
perience which are applied towards
a secondary school diploma.
Larry Traxler, the Board's Co-
operative Education Coordinator,
sees Co-operative Education as a very
positive experience. "Students gain
career -related work experience and
marketable skills. They learn how to
operate or observe the latest, most
advanced equipment. They also
develop their interpersonal skills.
'l'hey tend to mature and blossom at
a faster pace because they are ex-
pected to perform on the job as if they
were regular employees."
Teachers like the program because
it gives them more contacts with the
business community and it allows
them to learn more about -the needs
of business. Employers in turn
welcome the opporunity to find out
more about what students are learn-
ing in the classroom and they, of
course, benefit from the actual work
that students complete on their
behalf. The program also enables
employers to assess the students as
potential, permanent employees. In
fact, says Traxler, at least 25 percent
of Co-operative Education students go
on to work full-time or part-time for
the same employer.
ment that will form the basis of AIDS
education in Ontario Schools this fall.
The draft document will be cir-
culated to teachers and school ad-
ministrators during June for valida-
tion and response. Comments and
suggestions will be incorporated into
'a final document, which will be
distributed to schools in the fall. This
will allow introduction of AIDS educa-
tion programs early in the new school
year.
This document will be distributed to
teachers of students in grades seven
and eight and secondary school. It
will help teachers develop teaching
strategies to inform students of the
disease and to make students aware
of ways in which it is transmitted and
can be prevented.
"The challenge facing Ontario is to
educate ourselves and our children
about the risks of AIDS. It is up to us,
as parents, educators, and communi-
ty leaders to give young people the in-
formation required to make respon-
sible decisions about health matters
and to avoid the AIDS virus," said
Education Minister Sean Conway.
"If we act now, we can save lives.
If we teach our children to • make
responsible decisions, we will save
lives."
The draft document is divided into
four main sections: some facts about
AIDS; general teaching strategies;
teaching strategies fur grades seven
and eight; and teaching strategies for
secondary school grades. The sug-
gested strategies in the document
give teachers the flexibility to design
instructional programs dealing with
AIDS that are suitable for various
grade levels and respond to local
needs.
The document stresses that parents
must be made aware of the general
content and purpose of the program
and suggests that school ad-
ministrators consider involving
parents in a course covering the same
subject matter as the one given to
their children. -
AIDS education will be a man-
datory unit of study in the health
education program for students in
grades seven and eight and those in
the secondary school health education
program.
Parents or guardians_of a student.
or a student who is 18 years of age or
older, who believe any component o1
a physical or health education pro-
gram is in conflict with their beliefs
may apply for an exemption from
such a component and it will be
granted.

Communication Services Branch at
