The Circle of Courage is a program based on the Medicine Wheel that integrates traditional Aboriginal ways of knowing, community values, and development. It teaches the importance of four needs for healthy growth and development: Spirit of belonging, Spirit of Mastery, Spirit of Independence and Spirit of Generosity. One example can be found at the government of Manitoba's site.

This illustrated Medicine Wheel shows the totem, elements, season, direction, color, kingdom, quality, human aspect, manifestation, time and Heavenly body components.

The First Nations University, Indigenous Continuing Education Centre (ICEC), is proud to offer an exclusive tutorial introducing the National Centre for Collaboration in Indigenous Education (NCCIE) website and its on-line Teaching Resource Centre for Indigenous and non-Indigenous educators. The Teaching Resource Centre is an invaluable tool for all educators. The lesson plans are searchable by subject and grade. Each lesson plan comes complete with learning outcomes, a teacher’s guide,
activities, assessment guidelines, and materials. Lesson plans and videos were co-developed with community partners across Canada in the spirit of reciprocity – to contribute to the growing educational resources that highlight Indigenous perspectives.

The tutorial is designed to highlight the educational videos, stories, and lessons available on the NCCIE website and support learners and educators in their journey of knowing and understanding Indigenous education.

The tutorial will:
• Describe where to locate useful educational resources (e.g., videos, stories, and lessons) on the NCCIE website.
• Identify resources that may be useful in your educational journey or in your teaching practice.
• Examine and implement a variety of website resources into your courses and contexts.
• Assess the support you may need to deliver website content.
• Design a plan for implementing resources from the NCCIE website.
