- Inclusive Pedagogical Approaches: Teachers will learn effective strategies for incorporating Indigenous knowledge and narratives into various subject areas, making the curriculum more relevant and engaging for all students.
- Community Connection: Teachers will acquire the skills to nurture the incorporation of essential Indigenous values, including respect, reciprocity, and relationships, within their students.
- Curriculum Enhancement: Teachers will explore resources, materials, and pedagogical applications that authentically represent and highlight Native cultures, helping to create a more comprehensive and accurate educational experience.
- Reflective Practice: The workshop provides teachers with the opportunity to engage in self-reflection and critical inquiry, examining their biases and assumptions, while also exploring ways to continually enhance their pedagogy to foster inclusivity and respect for Indigenous perspectives.
