Grade 11 Anthropology, Psychology, Sociology (HSP3U)

Students in this course can expect to participate in archaeological digs on the Lakefield campus, and will engage actively with students from other summer programs to complete sociological research projects.

This course provides students with opportunities to think critically about theories, questions, and issues related to anthropology, psychology, and sociology. Students will develop an understanding of the approaches and research methods used by social scientists. They will be given opportunities to explore theories from a variety of perspectives, to conduct social science research, and to become familiar with current thinking on a range of issues within the three disciplines. Prerequisite: The Grade 10 academic course in English, or the Grade 10 academic history course (Canadian and world studies)

Our summer academy offers blended learning credit courses, with 2 weeks spent on our campus, and 2 weeks spent online to complete the credit.  

While on campus, students engage in authentic learning experiences that advance them toward earning an Ontario Secondary School credit  during mornings, and choose from a wide array of traditional camp activities in the afternoon. The program is rounded out by afternoon and evening programming at our waterfront and on our beautiful rural campus.
