Also included in the sidebar are curriculum outcome charts from Prince Edward Islands English Language Arts, Social Studies and Communication and Information Technology curricula. These charts include links to supporting MNet resources and lessons. Last updated July 2002 Curricular Overview Media literacy in Prince Edward Island is integrated throughout the curricula at the elementary and secondary levels especially in the English Language Arts curriculum. The Prince Edward Island Department of Education follows the English Language Arts framework developed under the auspices of the Atlantic Provinces Education Foundation (APEF), a curriculum consortium formed in 1995. Media literacy figures prominently in the APEF English Language Arts curriculum. The curriculum builds on the concept that literacy means moving beyond competency in the written word, to the ability to use and understand visual and technological means of communication. Its goal is to create critical media consumers who can, and will, bring critical analysis to their use of the media.

Extractions: Prince Edward Island has the distinction of being the smallest political unit in one of the worlds largest countries, Canada. "The Island," as it is known affectionately by its inhabitants, is situated in the Gulf of St. Lawrence off the Atlantic coast of North America. At 46° North latitude, it is about half-way between the Equator and the North Pole. Despite its location some 15km from the nearest point on the adjacent mainland, Prince Edward Island will soon be connected by "the Fixed Link," a bridge, due to open in 1997, a prospect welcomed by half of the inhabitants and viewed with misgivings by the rest. In the meantime, there is a year-round ferry service, as well as excellent air links through the modern airport at Charlottetown. GEOGRAPHY First-time visitors to Prince Edward Island are often struck by the vivid red of the soil and the beauty of the gently rolling landscape, much of it under cultivation in potatoes and grain. Because of this rather intense agricultural activity, the island has come to be called the Garden of the Gulf.

Charlottetown: Institute of Island Studies 1991. Pp. xviii, 116, illus. $9.95 Reviewed by GEORGE ELLIOTT CLARKE Queen's University While the history of blacks in Ontario, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick is generally known, that of the slave-founded community of Prince Edward Island has remained largely a mystery. Fortunately, Black Islanders: Prince Edward Island's Historical Black Community, a slim yet panoramic history by Jim Hornby, should increase knowledge of `African-Islanders,' to use Hornby's term, and, especially, of racism's three faces of structural ideology, social discrimination, and personal prejudice. Indeed, the most poignant aspect of the history of the African-Islanders is their near disappearance from the island because of, Hornby writes, `a combination of out-migration and assimilation.' In essence, then, this text chronicles the rise and fall or, more precisely, the flourishing and withering of the original, African-descended islanders. Hornby's ability to resurrect the dry bones of the African-Islanders is hampered, as he notes, by the loss of their own records. Hence, he is forced to rely upon public papers which, given their origin in a racist society, often portray blacks as criminals and clowns. Hornby recognizes that `the African-Islanders are, of necessity, seen against the background of their relationships with the larger white community.' He also points out that `official documents do not take note of acts of kindness, endurance, and love by the Island's blacks.' Hornby nicely foregrounds his awareness of the skewing effect of racist notions on the social construction of blackness in general and of African-Islanders in particular. He observes the presence of racism in island place names and folklore, and insists that white supremacy - a belief `inherited from colonialism and capitalism' - is a stratifying social force.

Extractions: What about youth? In Prince Edward Island, 66% of youth aged 12-19 are not active enough for optimal growth and development. For the purpose of these analyses, the term physically inactive is equivalent to an energy expenditure of less than three kilocalories per kilogram of body weight per day (KKD). This level of physical activity can be achieved by a half hour of martial arts plus walking for a total of at least one hour throughout the day. (1998/99 NPHS)

Extractions: First Inhabitants The first inhabitants of Prince Edward Island were the Paleo-Indians. They arrived in the Maritime region approximately 10,000 years ago. These early hunters were descendants of those who crossed the land-bridge between present-day Alaska and Russia 15,000-35,000 years earlier. Over many thousands of years these hunters and gatherers followed the animals they hunted, and spread across North America. These earliest settlers on the Island were primarily interested in the seal hunt on the eastern coast. Artifacts found near Souris and East Point show that hunters used stone-tipped harpoons to kill their prey. A spear-point found at Basin Head gives concrete evidence that Paleo-Indians frequented the Island. Seals were harpooned either from boats or from shore when conditions permitted.
