This initial immersive field experience will take place off campus over a weekend in a community situated on the ancestral, traditional, unceded territory of the Stó:lo peoples. Focus of inquiry will center on relationality and the importance of critical self-reflection in education by interrogating worldview beliefs, teacher identity and bias, deconstruction of colonialism, and issues of social justice. Localized Indigenous wisdom and knowledge in collaboration with Stó:lo elders and knowledge keepers will inform all aspects of learning what it means to be an educator and to educate. Moreover, the course will be an in-depth exploration of what it entails to act justly and truthfully as an educator who wants to be a partner in reconciliation, engage in reciprocity, and build respectful relations with members of local Indigenous communities.
