Transforming Biology Curriculum at Navajo Community College to Include Navajo and Western Cultural Knowledge.
Garrison, Edward R.
Journal of Navajo Education, v12 n1 p18-22 Fall 1994
Describes how a college teacher used Navajo traditional knowledge to rethink the teaching of college biology. Suggests that teachers intimidated by the intricate Dine Philosophy of Education may integrate Navajo knowledge into their courses through focused research guided by Navajo consultants. Includes five examples of redesigned curricula for teaching about taxonomy, evolution, origins of life, and other topics. (Author/SV)
