I am facilitating integration of experiential learning in classroom helping the match between Concordia courses and urban issues. The program is CityStudio Montreal. Open to any Concordia discipline according to city’s priorities for a customized lineup of projects promoting better living.
Integrating indigenous knowledge systems: botanical gardens, museums, and zoos
Soci/Anth 398A
Teams of 3 to 5 students will conduct virtual research at your institution to identify opportunities to enhance the presence of Indigenous knowledge systems and practices within your public engagement programs (e.g. thematic displays, interpretative materials, website design/presentation, curricula). Students will be allocated 12 hours to this project, and produce a report with proposed strategies to augment Indigenous visibility at your institution.Project context: In view of the recent acknowledgment of the colonial roots of Canadian institutions, many are engaging with the development of measures that facilitate the integration of Indigenous Peoples' invaluable systems of knowledge and practice. Given this colonial legacy, natural science/history museums, botanical gardens, and zoos are called to rethink and possibly re-frame their public engagement and pedagogical orientations to include and/or enhance Indigenous content. This project offers timely resources toward these ends.
