Hi Everyone, 

We have a new project at the University of Alberta where we are sourcing free/open resources which intersects with indigenizing education in K-12 (social studies). I'm hoping to recruit some other open educators to share their experience with the project team (instructor, doctoral student, librarians, and me). 

Faculty of Education, Elementary Education
EDEL 335 Curriculum and Pedagogy in Elementary School Social Studies
Project Lead: Sharla Peltier

This project will conduct critical review of existing First Nation Metis and Inuit education materials in Alberta relevant to teaching Social Studies to identify and/or customize OER for teaching of pre-service teachers and/or classroom use by social studies elementary teachers and faculty with appropriate Indigenous contexts in response to recent revisions to Teaching Quality Standard #5: Applying Foundational Knowledge about First Nations, Metis and Inuit. (Supported through the University of Alberta OER Awards) 

Thank you in advance!
