Resource Overview 2
What does First Nations, Métis and Inuit infusion of content and perspectives look like in the classroom? Including First Nations, Métis and Inuit perspectives, experiences and content in the curriculum is not a checklist of activities and factoids but an experience in itself. It is a way for all stakeholders to see themselves as part of the educational experience, to claim ownership of the process and to benefit their local community and Canadian society in general. The digital resource Walking Together: First Nations, Métis and Inuit Perspectives in Curriculum from Alberta Education provides many opportunities for educators to learn more about infusion and carry it into their educational settings. For a sample from this resource, hear Ellery Starlight explain the significance of wearing traditional braids. This interview is located in the Respecting Wisdom section of the Symbolism and Traditions topic area.
