SESSION 5 - MAKING CURRICULUM CONNECTIONS and CLOSING WITH THE FEATHER (total 2 hours)
Live Virtual Circle: Wednesday, July 28th @ 1:00 PM EST, 2 hours
This final live session gives participants an introduction to Actua’s InSTEM Outreach Team who connects youth to what they already intrinsically know about STEM from within their own community context by working in partnership with local Indigenous knowledge holders, and Elders who share their Traditional Knowledge. This ensures that the programming Actua delivers remains relevant and reflective of local community cultural and educational priorities. This session includes:
● Outlining a process to connect curriculum outcomes to local Indigenous Knowledge
● Exploring connection made in Actua’s STEM programming
● Reflecting and wrapping up
