Principles for decolonizing education

Abstract

"The article by Alyson Jones, a white settler teacher of Humanities from Vanier College, is a literature review of the Anglophone academic literature on decolonizing and Indigenizing education by Indigenous thinkers. Alyson distills this growing body of Indigenous scholarship into five principles for decolonizing CEGEP education, and explores key concepts in Indigenous education such as decolonization, decolonizing pedagogies, and Indigenous/Indigenizing pedagogies. Pay attention to Aylson’s unique approach to conducting the literature review in dialogue with Indigenous experts as an example of an accountable way to do this complicated work as a settler." -- provided by author
