Nisitohtamowin ᓂᓯᑐᐦᑕᒧᐃᐧᐣ Une introduction à la compréhension des perspectives autochtones au Canada
Rating
0.0 stars

** Cours destiné aux adultes / enseignant.e.s et non aux élèves **

« Bienvenue à cet apprentissage en ligne Nisitohtamowin ᓂᓯᑐᐦᑕᒧᐃᐧᐣ. Cette séance d’apprentissage en ligne d’une heure vise à favoriser la compréhension des perspectives autochtones au Canada. Il s’agit d’une ressource offerte gratuitement au public pendant le mois de juin afin de souligner le Mois national de l’histoire autochtone.

La prise de mesures pour comprendre les perspectives autochtones peut mener à la réconciliation, à de meilleures relations et à diverses occasions, notamment en ce qui a trait à l’économie, aux partenariats communautaires, à l’environnement et aux affaires. Ce cours ne constitue qu’un premier pas vers la compréhension. Nous invitons tous les participants à chercher d’autres occasions d’apprentissage, que ce soit auprès des Autochtones de leur région ou de l’Université des Premières Nations du Canada. »

** « Ce cours aborde des sujets destinés aux adultes et pourrait ne pas convenir à tous les âges. Il explore l’histoire des Autochtones au Canada, notamment les pensionnats et les relations entre les races. Des sujets délicats sont abordés, comme la violence faite aux enfants, les agressions sexuelles, les actes violents et la mort. Ces sujets peuvent provoquer des réactions émotives chez certaines personnes et nous encourageons celles qui en ont besoin à chercher des ressources de soutien locales. » **

"Orange Shirt Day was launched in 2013 to call attention to 165 years of residential school experiences (1831-1996). For residential school survivor Phyllis Webstad, the severing of the threads connecting her to family, community, and culture began in 1973, when the beautiful orange shirt she wore to her first day of school was stripped from her and never seen again. The removal of the orange shirt was the first of a series of destructive methods enforced to deplete her sense of self-worth, erase her culture, and suppress her spirit. Her story is just one of the experiences described by countless survivors, but many others did not live to tell their own story. Intergenerational experiences rooted in the trauma inflicted through residential schools and other forced-assimilation policies continue to ripple through communities today...."

Passez à l’action (Excursion virtuelle)
Rating
0.0 stars

«Inscrivez-vous pour une visite virtuelle de 45 minutes, puis suivez-la avec une unité en classe sur les droits de l'homme et le rôle d'intervenant. L'unité en classe comprend un projet d'investigation.

Visite virtuelle :

Les élèves apprendront à être des intervenants en droits de l'homme en découvrant les histoires de personnes qui ont utilisé leurs forces personnelles pour défendre leurs droits et les droits des autres, créant ainsi un changement.

Les élèves vont :

1. Apprendre à identifier les traits communs à tous les intervenants et comprendre que chacun de nous possède également ces traits de manière unique.

2. Découvrir les expositions et l'architecture inspirante du musée comme s'ils étaient physiquement présents.
Interagir avec un guide du musée et poser des questions pour mieux comprendre comment ils peuvent agir pour un changement positif.

3. Participer à des discussions, à la réflexion critique et à l'évaluation de leur rôle dans la protection de leurs propres droits et des droits des autres.

Unité en classe :

La ressource "Soyez un Intervenant" est une unité d'apprentissage basée sur des projets conçue pour compléter le programme scolaire "Passez à l'action". Cette ressource cible les élèves de l'intermédiaire et encourage l'investigation et l'action sur les questions de droits de l'homme. Les élèves examineront les traits des intervenants en droits de l'homme et suivront leur exemple. À la fin du projet, les élèves auront eu l'occasion d'explorer une question qui les passionne personnellement, de partager leurs connaissances et de guider les autres vers l'action.

Le site web "Passez à l'action" est une expérience numérique conçue pour soutenir l'apprentissage des élèves dans le cadre d'une unité d'apprentissage basée sur des projets axée sur les droits de l'homme. Les élèves qui développent des projets d'intervenants participeront à une enquête personnelle et à une action sur les questions de droits de l'homme qui leur tiennent à cœur. Les élèves apprendront les traits des intervenants en droits de l'homme, seront introduits à la Déclaration universelle des droits de l'homme et examineront leurs forces personnelles. En suivant l'exemple des intervenants dont ils apprennent l'histoire, les élèves seront mis au défi de prendre des mesures tangibles pour devenir eux-mêmes des intervenants en droits de l'homme.

Reconciliation Through Indigenous Education
Rating
0.0 stars

This course will help you envision how Indigenous histories, perspectives, worldviews, and approaches to learning can be made part of the work we do in classrooms, organizations, communities, and our everyday experiences in ways that are thoughtful and respectful. In this course, reconciliation emphasizes changing institutional structures, practices, and policies, as well as personal and professional

ideologies to create environments that are committed to strengthening our relationships with Indigenous peoples.

For educators, this means responding to educational reforms that prioritize improved educational outcomes for Indigenous learners. In addition, educators must support all learners to develop their knowledge and understanding of Indigenous people’s worldviews and cultures as a basis for creating equitable and inclusive learning spaces. To support these goals, teachers, administrators, young people, school staff, and researchers will learn from Indigenous Elders, educational leaders, and culturally relevant learning resources as part of their experiences in this course.

Remembering the Children

Rating

Missing children and the existence of unmarked burial sites at Residential Schools across Canada have been well-known for decades among Indigenous communities. However, Canadians are still grappling with the truths about Residential Schools, spurring long-overdue conversations inside and outside the classroom.

Remembering the Children, the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation’s publication for students, offers a way to begin those conversations. It takes readers to a variety of Residential Schools across time and space, opening a door into a past that reverberates today, while also celebrating the resilience and resurgence of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples’ culture.

Remembering the Children Educators Guide
Only Sharing Permitted
CC BY-NC-ND
Rating
0.0 stars

The publication Remembering the Children and this complementary educator’s guide
were designed to help students achieve the following goals:
• gain a more complex understanding of the history and reality of residential schools in Canada, recognizing that children who attended Residential
Schools, day schools, industrial schools and boarding schools had their own
unique experiences and that these experiences varied across the country and
across time
• gain an appreciation for Indigenous knowledge and the diversity of traditional
cultures, languages and teachings of First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities
• understand the depth of loss that occurred as a result of the Residential
School system
• learn about contemporary people and organizations who are engaged in cultural revitalization efforts
• understand that they have an individual and collective role in reconciliation
Students and teachers all over Canada will be at different stages of learning. We hope
that the Remembering the Children publication and educator’s guide provide you
with content, resources, voices and ideas so that you can continue these important
conversations all year long.
With appreciation to all educators who are taking on this important work
