Educators Journey Towards Reconciliation & Weaving Knowledge Systems Workshops

Educators Journey Towards Reconciliation (EJTR)

This workshop will take us on a journey to discover challenges and best practices in decolonizing our education practice and the classroom. Based on your experiences and knowledge of Indigenous history and issues, we will explore strategies for creating a culturally safe learning environment and indigenizing through reconciling Indigenous worldviews, ways of knowing and being. We will practice reciprocity, respect, responsibility, and relevance throughout our journey together.

This workshop is delivered entirely online and requires your commitment to the synchronous sessions and timely participation in the asynchronous activities. Once you have registered, further course details and virtual office hours will be provided.

Weaving Knowledge Systems (WKS)

Weaving Knowledge Systems (formerly Indigenizing the Curriculum) is a workshop that provides you with hands-on experience and resources that will bring together Indigenous and Western worldviews based on your subject area. We will explore experiential activities to weave cultural safety/humility, Indigenous Ways of knowing and being, Indigenous worldviews, into your course(s)/practice. Bring at least one course syllabi, lesson plan(s), any resources etc. This workshop differs from previous Indigenizing the Curriculum workshops as it is taught from an Indigenous perspective.
