Comment on this resource
A college environmental science course for students at an Anishinaabe tribal college is designed to incorporate cultural values into the curriculum. Goals are that students learn both Western and Indigenous science, that they earn a fully transferrable degree, that they learn more of Anishinaabe culture at an academic level, and that they enroll more often in natural science courses. Specific laboratory protocols are provided to illlustrate course design, as is a short lesson that uses the traditional birchbark canoe as an example of Indigenous knowledge and technology related to environmental science. Vol. XII, Issue 2, Winter 2000
