Reconciling Epistemological Orientations: Toward a Wholistic Nishaabe (Ojibwe/Odawa/Potowatomi) Education.
Corbiere, Alan Ijiig
Canadian Journal of Native Education, v24 n2 p113-19 2000
Native identity as conceived by Native people is not incorporated meaningfully into Ontario's rational, standardized curriculum. The omission of Native languages and understandings perpetuates the erroneous colonial notion of Native inferiority. First Nations education as sui generis should affirm the Native way of life through the use of Native story, land, identity, and language. (Contains 19 references.) (TD)
