Hello,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

My name is Victoria Cooke, and I am a fourth-year First Nations and Indigenous Studies student completing my practicum with the Indigenous Initiatives team at the Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology at UBC.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019re looking for International students and English as Additional Language learners, as well as the faculty and staff who work with them, to help us out with our project this year. I have developed two surveys geared towards better understanding International and EAL students\u2019 previous knowledge and interest in Indigenous topics here at UBC, as well as their faculty and staff supports\u2019 capacities for delivering this curriculum.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These surveys will serve as the foundation for developing new educational resources available to the entire teaching and learning community with Indigenous histories and contemporary perspectives at UBC. <\/span><\/b>By participating in the survey, you will be helping to contribute to a campus climate that is more aware of our relationship with and responsibility to the Musqueam Nation, and Indigenous peoples across Canada.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
