critical reflection in the secondary classroom: anti-oppression education
abstract
this thesis argues that schools are sites where an ideology of colonialism is reproduced
through the roles of the institution, the educators (and their education), the 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛
and
the absence of an integrated community. the researcher uses an anti-oppressive
pedagogical approach in a secondary school classroom in northwest ontario to
incorporate indigenous rights education into existing curriculum. this research was
modeled after a participatory action research framework to allow flexibility and input
from participants. a curriculum unit based on the united nations declaration on the
rights of indigenous peoples was developed and implemented in a secondary school
classroom; data was collected during the unit, through a questionnaire, a post-unit focus
group, and an interview with a native studies teacher. the research findings support the
need for the integration of indigenous content in the ontario public school system at the
ministry, board, teacher education, and school levels.
