| Abstract: |
As a member of the Onyota’a:ka First Nation community in southwestern Ontario, I have had the opportunity to experience the rural reserve system of Euro-western education as administered by the federal government to First Nations People in Canada. I have also had the opportunity to experience secondary and post secondary education. At the post secondary level, my experience includes both undergraduate and graduate education. Near the end of my formal educational journey through the Euro-western school system, I realized my instructive experience was incomplete. I knew what the Western perspective required because of my formal training, but I could not articulate an Aboriginal perspective. |
