DEEPENING KNOWLEDGE
To infuse Aboriginal peoples
histories, knowledges, and
pedagogies into all levels
of education in Canada
REBEKAH BEDARD
Located on the lands of Onkwehonwe and Anishinaabe peoples, the Ontario
Institute for Studies in Education (OISE, 2013) is a leader in promoting Aboriginal
education. OISEs Deepening Knowledge Project (DKP) team is working to infuse
Aboriginal peoples histories, knowledges, and pedagogies into all levels of
education in Canada (OISE, 2013). Led by Professor Jean-Paul Restoule, the DKP
team has developed a website, which provides links to a wealth of online resources
and offers lists of books and videos, which currently link to Amazon.
To support the DKP team, the OISE Library sponsored the DKP - Library Resources project, which I completed as a practicum student. The project had 鍖ve major deliverables:
