The Indigenizing the Curriculum workshop is an opportunity to develop strategies and techniques to address the absence of Indigenous ways of knowing and history in the curriculum. Being more inclusive in our teaching provides a greater depth of learning for students, however, most faculty members are unsure how this can be done. At times, the fear of making a mistake prevents faculty members from including this practice and information. More than just having a reading or guest speaker, to indigenize the curriculum is to weave this material throughout the course.

In this hands-on, three-day workshop, participants will be provided the opportunity to learn about aspects of Indigenous culture, traditions, scholarship and learning strategies that can be incorporated into a wide variety of courses and programs. Space is limited.

Registration fee: $350.00
