Indigenization is the process by which Indigenous ways of knowing, being, doing and relating are incorporated into educational, organizational, cultural and social structures of the institution.
Indigenizing curriculum and teaching practice
The purpose of Indigenization at 澳门三肖三码精准100% is to:
- develop and implement practices that ensure that Indigenous students see themselves and their realities reflected in curriculum and service
- ensure that non-Indigenous students leave the college with skills and knowledge that enable them to work with and live alongside Indigenous neighbours knowledgeably and respectfully
Education Developer Natasha Parrish (Haida) provides culturally informed guidance to instructors seeking to Indigenize and decolonize their teaching practice, course materials and curriculum. She is available to meet with instructors individually or with departments.
