Abstract of the Minnesota Indian Education Hearings Report. Volume 1, November 1976.
Jones, Ramona C.
Summarizing the results of the Minnesota Indian Education Hearings and the methods used to generate analysis of the transcripts for the State Board of Education and its subcommittee on Indian Education, this document presents tabular and narrative data re: content analysis; statewide findings; findings for each hearing site (Minneapolis, St. Paul, Red Wing, Cass Lake, Duluth, White Earth, and Red Lake); and prioritized recommendations. Analysis methodology is described as involving a master content analysis code structure to identify, for computer analysis, the testifiers, the hearings' board members, staff, type of testimony, and the range of categories. Major categories are identified as: legislation; administration; research; finances; communications; training; curriculum; bilingual/bicultural; post-secondary; and rights and responsibilities. Comparisons and cross-references of these data are presented via charts, graphs, and tables. Statewide findings are presented in a prioritized format as follows: research (student supportive services and Indian school participation factors); rights/responsibilities (Indian dual citizenship rights and discriminatory factors); finances (state financing of Indian education); curriculum (Indian materials development, assessment, dissemination, and the need for state coordination and state financing efforts); administration (state); and other priority areas (communication, training, post-secondary, legislation, and bilingual/bicultural).
