Educational Resources

Select from the education resources listed on the left. Each of these “Learning Objects” presents a collection of media for exploration, and related activity ideas for your students.

This collection of learning resources explores historical, cultural and social ideas about what might make a car Canadian. Students can examine this central question through five possible frames of reference — design, manufacturing, marketing, consumer popularity, and social impacts.

Cars have shaped Canadian landscapes, cities, and communities. They have influenced Canadians’ lifestyles and even impacted popular culture. This makes “automobility” an engaging topic through which to explore many facets of history and social studies curricula.
