Good morning,
The OER Program at the University of Regina is pleased to announce the publication of the
following resources:
Cree Dictionary of Mathematics Terms with Visual Examples
This resource provides Cree equivalents of 176 mathematics terms and their definition in
English. The visual examples mainly
contain Indigenous elements. The Dictionary was reviewed by Elders, Indigenous Knowledge
Keepers and Cree-speaking educators. The
resource can be accessed at the link

An Introduction to Geological Field Trips: Case Study Avonlea Badlands, Saskatchewan
This resource emerged out of the passion of a few people for fieldwork. During the
COVID-19 pandemic, there was a real need to
replace actual field trips - forbidden during the pandemic - with something else that will
give students a taste of fieldwork.
More than being the conclusion, this project wants to be the inspiration that will carry
the student out of the classroom and into
the field. The resource can be accessed at the link
