Teaching Using Indigenous Methods
It is my plan for the fall semester to incorporate some of the teaching styles used by the Indigenous peoples. For this reason, I chose an image of a medicine wheel.
At first I struggled to find what I was looking for as Indigenous peoples have been referred to by several different names. I tried using Boolean using terms like “First Nations”, Indigenous, and Indian, but I did not have much luck until I included “American Native”. I got some great results using this term, but unfortunately, the information was American, and I try to use Canadian content whenever possible.
By far, I found the Canadian Commons search the easiest to navigate and was also sure that the material found there had an open license.
