520 $a Human rights education is growing in importance worldwide. The role of schools can play an vital role in human rights education. Textbooks provide an important source of information, knowledge and understanding for students' awareness and advocacy in their society and the world. The study investigates the role of textbooks in Alberta's Social Studies courses.
520 $a The primary research methodology of the study is a qualitative content analysis of a select number of senior high school Social Studies textbooks used in Alberta over the past three years. A conceptual framework of human rights principles, issues and practices is designed based on major international human rights instruments pertinent to the United Nations Decade for Human Rights Education and used to critically analyze the textbook content for its ability to empower practical activities beyond the mere provision of information.
520 $a A comprehensive range of civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights is included in the coding framework. A detailed checklist is used to identify issues of human rights found in the content of textbooks. The study indicates that at present, Alberta textbooks cannot serve as the sole source for students and teachers. Supplementary resources are required in order to provide a human rights education using Alberta textbooks in their present form.
