This course prepares students to make successful transitions to postsecondary destinations as they investigate specific postsecondary options based on their skills, interests, and personal characteristics. Students will explore the realities and opportunities of the workplace and examine factors that affect success, while refining their job-search and employability skills. Students will develop their portfolios with a focus on their targeted destination and develop an action plan for future success.
Prerequisite: None
This course introduces students to computer science. Students will design software independently and as part of a team, using industry-standard programming tools and applying the software development life-cycle model. They will also write and use subprograms within computer programs. Students will develop creative solutions for various types of problems as their understanding of the computing environment grows. They will also explore environmental and ergonomic issues, emerging research in computer science, and global career trends in computer-related fields.
Prerequisite: None
- The Grade 10 Computer Studies course Digital Technology and Innovations in the Changing World (ICD2O) was issued in 2023. This course replaces Introduction to Computer Studies, Grade 10, Open (ICS2O). As of September 2023, the ICS2O course should not be offered, and the associated course code expired at the end of the 2022–23 school year.
This course develops students' understanding of the basic concepts of physics. Students will explore kinematics, with an emphasis on linear motion; different kinds of forces; energy transformations; the properties of mechanical waves and sound; and electricity and magnetism. They will enhance their scientific investigation skills as they test laws of physics. In addition, they will analyse the interrelationships between physics and technology, and consider the impact of technological applications of physics on society and the environment.
Prerequisite: SNC2D

The Grade 11 Functions (MCR3U) course delves into the mathematical concept of functions, expanding upon students' prior knowledge of linear and quadratic relations. Students will explore the properties of both discrete and continuous functions, including trigonometric and exponential functions. They will represent functions in various forms: numerically, algebraically, and graphically. Additionally, students will tackle problems involving real-world applications of functions, investigate inverse functions, and develop proficiency in identifying equivalent algebraic expressions. This course will enhance students' mathematical reasoning and communication skills as they navigate multi-step problem-solving.
