Webinar Three | Native New York in Your Classroom | Professional Development
Description
Learn the history of problematic narratives about Native Americans, its impact on society, and why it matters today. Participants will hear from Ed Schupman (Muscogee), manager of the National Museum of the American Indian’s national education initiative, Native Knowledge 360° (NK360°). Ed discusses the long tradition of problematic narratives about Native Americans and shows how those narratives affect American society and K–12 education. The webinar concludes with an introduction to the NK360° initiative, including the museum's NK360° Framework for Essential Understandings about American Indians, a set of key concepts about the rich and diverse cultures, histories, and contemporary lives of Native peoples. This session will inspire participants to think about what transformations they can make in their own teaching and learning about Native Americans. Webinar Three originally aired on October 8, 2020. Webinar Three is part of a four-part series designed for education professionals who teach about the Native nations of New York State. This series, called “Native New York in Your Classroom”, is tied to the Native New York exhibition (https://americanindian.si.edu/explore/exhibitions/item?id=981) at the National Museum of the American Indian in New York, NY. The series originally aired September 24 – October 15, 2020. The National Museum of the American Indian’s professional development programs introduce educators to Native Knowledge 360° (https://americanindian.si.edu/nk360), the museum’s national education initiative, and its extensive resources. Webinars are designed to support education professionals in learning approaches to incorporate more complete narratives about Native American histories, cultures, and contemporary lives into their teaching.
