Courtney, Richard – Curriculum Inquiry, 1986
American Indian education fails because schools force acceptance of a nonindigenous world view and ignore native people's perceptions of life, spirituality, art, time, mores, and learning practices. A University of Calgary experiment demonstrates that the creative arts, especially spontaneous drama, are more effective learning vehicles for native…

Sharkey, Judy – Curriculum Inquiry, 2004
Over the last 25 years, autobiography has gained increasing epistemological and methodological popularity and legitimacy in teacher education.
