As educators, it's our responsibility to learn for ourselves and teach our students. https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/3e01j5uvkvy0p3ak/wish/2119908198 2022-03-29 17:53:57 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/3e01j5uvkvy0p3ak/wish/2119908198 Take the opportunity to educate ones self on the topic of interest and learn how to deliver the information in an appropriate way. https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/3e01j5uvkvy0p3ak/wish/2119910812 2022-03-29 17:55:21 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/3e01j5uvkvy0p3ak/wish/2119910812 Curriculum is one sided.

This includes those who have lived the experiences, trained to teach the subject or a member of the Indigenous community. https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/3e01j5uvkvy0p3ak/wish/2119930317 2022-03-29 18:05:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/3e01j5uvkvy0p3ak/wish/2119930317 When teaching about either philosophies it is import to make the distinction between the two ways of scientific thinking allow students to experience the benefits, differences and similarities of both. Here we can see if students isolate the ways of thinking about science or if they come to merge the two scientific ways of thinking https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/3e01j5uvkvy0p3ak/wish/2119940751 2022-03-29 18:11:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/3e01j5uvkvy0p3ak/wish/2119940751 Opportunities for teachers to learn from those around them.
