CROSSING BRIDGES:
TURNING ON THE LIGHT FOR LEARNING FOR NATIVE STUDENTS.
Monday, April 20. 7 pm Central Time.
Presented by:
Lori Lambert, PhD,
(Nulhegan Abenaki/Mi'kmaq/Huron)
Professor,
Salish Kootenai Tribal College,
Pablo, MT
Lori's Bio [2]
How can faculty and teachers ignite the fire that burns within every
Native student? Our presenter, Dr. Lori Lambert is a master of
instructional strategies designed to help motivate Native students and
discover their passion for further
learning.
She is known as the “mother of online learning” at Salish
Kootenai College in Montana, beginning her work with Native students
online before many universities were aware of online learning. Her
strategies were engaging and supportive and her students succeeded!
In the “safe” learning space she creates, she approaches each
student “mind to mind’ and builds nurturing relationships with
each. She uses Native Ways of
Knowing strategies to express content. This involves including
Indigenous content in courses where students explore their own tribal
history. She encourages her
students to apply what they have learned in the formal learning
environment to their own lives and professions
Join us in this upcoming April 20th teleseminar to talk with other
faculty and Lori about learning strategies that facilitate Native
students to:
* Increase their capacity to contribute to the Native community
* Use their own ways of learning to develop self-reliance and
self-determination
* Develop higher levels of understanding
* Develop knowledge about themselves.
Facilitated by:
Michael Fire, PhD and Nancy Fire, EdD
Founders of Fire and Associates.
Michael is an Elder of the Cheyenne & Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma. He
is on Faculty at North Central Texas College
Nancy works in Faculty Development at the University of North Texas
