As I work through this course, I’m interested in reading this book called “Knowing the past, facing the future: Indigenous education in Canada”.
It goes through the challenges that need to be removed before reconciliation can be met. It comes in three parts:
- Part 1 focuses on colonial promises and practices including the treaty right to education and the establishment of day, residential, and industrial schools
- Part 2 focuses on the legacy of racism, trauma, and dislocation
- Part 3 explores contemporary issues in curriculum development, assessment, leadership, and governance.
