Science

The Manitoba science curriculum states that “science is shaped by historical, political, economic, environmental, and societal factors” and that “scientific literacy equips learners to critically engage with information, make informed decisions, and address complex issues on both personal and societal levels.” Digital and media literacy expectations are mostly found in the Practical Science and Nature of Science strands.
