Post 1: Culturally Responsive Science Curriculum
http://ankn.uaf.edu/publications/handbook/
The topic covered in Week 9 (Culturally Responsive Education) was directly related to my topic of choice for the final research paper, so of course I had to delve deeper! I found a website that featured a “Handbook for Culturally Responsive Science Curriculum” in both online and PDF format published by the Alaska Science Consortium, the Alaska Rural Systemic Initiative (ARKSI), and the Alaska Department of Education. In it, the author (Sidney Stephens) outlines ways in which to involve cultural experts, topics of cultural significance, cultural standards, science standards, and best practices for integrating curriculum into culture.
