Unsettling Settler Colonial Education: The Transformational Indigenous Praxis Model

Sat, April 23, 11:30am to 1:00pm PDT (11:30am to 1:00pm PDT), Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina, Floor: South Building, Level 3, Balboa

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

This symposium will highlight the Transformational Indigenous Praxis Model (TIPM) framework composed of four dimensions toward decolonizing and Indigenizing teaching and learning. This process of transformation is not viewed as linear or static, but through a relational model; educators can move fluidly between the dimensions within this model and can exist across multiple dimensions simultaneously depending on the context and their positionality. We highlight TIPM through pathway-making of twelve interwoven examples of how it can be utilized across the educational spectrum. Most importantly, we center the needs of teachers, children, families, and communities that are currently engaged in public education and who deserve an improved experience today, while we dream and commit to more positive Indigenous futurities.
