Test: Population & Settlement in NF


Some more details. This week's exam consists of:
- analysing documents, French regime - colonisation, (8 marks);
- an essay, answering a question, French regime,(12 marks);
- 8 multiple choice questions (population/territory during French regime), (8 marks);
- 2 short answer questions using documents, British rule, (5 marks)

- As stated in class, the evaluation focuses on New France between 1608-1760. You must understand the role of the chartered fur companies, the Catholic church, the seigneurial system and the Royal Government in New France. 

- There are only TWO short answer questions about the evolution of population and changes in territory under the British, during the period 1760-91.

- Although you don't have to study dates, it helps to understand sequence of events. Here are some important population in NF dates: 1608, 1663, 1665, 1760. Here are some important dates in Quebec, under British rule: 1763, 1774, 1780's, 1783, 1791...

Thus far, only ONE student has sent me questions for clarification via email. Lastly, the bonus question will be about a socio-cultural event...

This will account for approximately 40-50% of the term. Term ends Friday!
