The Archives of Ontario, in partnership
with the Toronto Public Library and the City
of Toronto Archives, presents Ontario History Quest
an online learning resource for Ontario students in grades 7, 8, 10
and 12 studying history from 1820-1970.
The site, designed to meet the Ontario
Ministry of Education curriculum requirements, operates
in a closed Internet environment. At the website, at http://ohq.tpl.toronto.on.ca,
Grade 7 and 8 students can undertake their learning completely
while Grade 10 and 12 students may also be directed to the complementary
OHQ Digital
Collections web site with searchable databases of
over 3,300 primary and secondary source materials.
For each grade, OHQ provides Introductory Activities
and a “Webquest” where students have
the opportunity to learn about Ontario history through the exploration
of original letters, diaries, pictures and other documents. Teacher
packages are provided for each grade.
The project was made possible in part through the Ontario
Ministry of Culture Library Strategic Development Fund: Digital
Alliances Programme. |
