Reports from the Field: READING AND WRITING WITH THE ALGONQUIN, CREE, MICMAC, AND MOHAWK: A LEARNING EXPERIENCE FOR McGILL INSTRUCTORS
Abstract
Control of their own educational systems by aboriginal peoples is the key to their social, economic, and cultural survival. During the '70s and '80s, considerable achievements were made in establishing some measure of local jurisdiction. This control has been manifested in a number of different ways: administration, finance, curriculum, and teacher training. This report describes what some mainstream instructors involved in an aboriginal teacher education program have learned about themselves and their aboriginal students. RÉSUMÉ Le contrôle par les peuples autochtones de leurs propres systèmes d'éducation est pour ces peuples la seule façon de survivre sur les plans social, économique et culturel. Au cours des années 1970 et 1980, de grands progrès ont été réalisés dans la mise en place d'un certain degré de pouvoir, qui s'est exercé dans divers domaines: administration, finances, programmes d'études et formation des enseignants. Ce rapport décrit ce que certains enseignants des programmes réguliers ont appris sur eux-mêmes et sur leurs élèves autochtones en participant à des programmes deformation des enseignants autochtones.Downloads
