M4 – P2 Worldviews/Perspectives in the Classroom.

Since I am looking at Indigenizing high school shop class as my final project, it would be fitting to explore this document released from the BC Ministry of Education. It came out in 2015 and is entitled “Aboriginal Worldviews and Perspective in the classroom.” This is a fairly long document, and includes details such as how the document came to be.

A part I enjoyed in the document was that it encouraged educators to learn from local First Nations as worldviews can be tied to local lands. Incorporating local First Nation’s worldviews in the classroom is much more meaningful than the popular generic Indigenous perspectives that are a little more well known.
