Module 2, Post 3
I think the APTN is a great resource for bringing an Indigenous perspective to current day issues and events, and that could be tied into my math class in various ways. What I like about this is that it brings a modern representation to the class, rather than talking about past historical events, and it is more connected to events that affect us in a more immediate way.
