Seeking Connections -- Open Indigenous OER Projects
*cross-posted* Hi Everyone, We have a new project at the University of Alberta where we are sourcing free/open resources which intersects with indigenizing education in K-12 (social studies). I'm hoping to recruit some other open educators to share their experience with the project team (instructor, doctoral student, librarians, and me). Faculty of Education, Elementary Education EDEL 335 Curriculum and Pedagogy in Elementary School Social Studies Project Lead: Sharla Peltier This project will conduct critical review of existing First Nation Metis and Inuit education materials in Alberta relevant to teaching Social Studies to identify and/or customize OER for teaching of pre-service teachers and/or classroom use by social studies elementary teachers and faculty with appropriate Indigenous contexts in response to recent revisions to Teaching Quality Standard #5: Applying Foundational Knowledge about First Nations, Metis and Inuit. (Supported through the University of Alberta OER Awards <https://www.ualberta.ca/centre-for-teaching-and-learning/grants/oer/awards-projects-list> ) Thank you in advance! -- Krysta McNutt, PMP Senior Project Manager, Open Education Centre for Teaching and Learning University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada krystam(a)ualberta.ca | 780-710-5674 | @mcnuttsays <http://www.twitter.com/mcnuttsays> UA OE Interest Group <https://guides.library.ualberta.ca/open-educational-resources> | Alberta OER Community of Practice <http://www.albertaoer.com/community> | Learn more here <https://www.ualberta.ca/centre-for-teaching-and-learning/services/teaching-development/open-education> *The University of Alberta is located **o**n Treaty 6 territory, the territory of the Papaschase, and the homeland of the **Métis Nation.*
Krysta, We’re just starting to have the conversations at the U of S about OER and indigenization. These were the key topics that we brought together at the recent Teaching and Learning Today conference. You may find the videos of some of the major sessions useful for starting some conversations. https://teaching.usask.ca/tlt2018/watch-live.php Heather M. Ross (B.A., B.Ed., M.Ed.)

Hi Krysta, We have been collecting open resources for our K-12 district on this very topic all year in anticipation of the new Teacher Quality Standards (TQS), curriculum changes and support for reconciliation Could you give me some more information on the timing and what you were thinking? Will we need people to attend an event? Is this an opportunity to collect current open resources? It sounds exciting - and very relevant - but we need to know a little more information if possible? I can also send the information to other K-12 schools districts, so any additional info is appreciated. Verena 😊 ________________________________ From: albertaoer(a)googlegroups.com <albertaoer(a)googlegroups.com> on behalf of Krysta McNutt <krystam(a)ualberta.ca> Sent: Wednesday, May 16, 2018 4:13:21 PM To: canadaoer; Alberta OER Community of Practice; cc-openedu(a)googlegroups.com Subject: Seeking Connections -- Open Indigenous OER Projects *cross-posted* Hi Everyone, We have a new project at the University of Alberta where we are sourcing free/open resources which intersects with indigenizing education in K-12 (social studies).

Hi All, If it’s helpful as an example, here is a link to Since Time Immemorial: Tribal Sovereignty in Washington State. <http://www.k12.wa.us/IndianEd/TribalSovereignty/> The WA legislature passed a bill requiring the inclusion of tribal sovereignty curriculum be taught in all K-12 schools. The use of the curriculum has been endorsed by all 29 federally recognized tribes. We’ve also had districts work with their regional tribes to adapt the materials and develop the following: Exploring the Pacific Northwest Prior to Statehood: A historical study of the Spokane Indians and the interactions with people who explored and moved<https://www.oercommons.org/courses/washington-state-history-unit-1-4th-grade> west.<https://www.oercommons.org/courses/washington-state-history-unit-1-4th-grade> (grade 4) Territory and Treaty Making: A Study of Tribes, Westward Expansion, and Conflict<https://www.oercommons.org/courses/territory-and-treaty-making-a-study-of-tribes-westward-expansion-and-conflict> (grade 7) All are CC BY, except where otherwise noted.
