  • Considerations to Indigenize your Work – An Overview


    Welcome to this FLO MicroCourse: Considerations to Indigenize your Work!

    I look forward to learning with you, and to sharing ideas which will support professional development and personal growth.

    The introductory video describes in some ways the format and the structure of this MicroCourse. Each of the next five days has a theme and there are activities related to those themes:

    • Day 1 – Shifting Perspectives: Flipgrid activity

    • Day 2 – Unlearning: Discussion Forum activity
       Join us for a Welcome Circle where we will be sharing our views and experiences with the activity of “Unlearning”.

    • Day 3 -Reframing: Discussion Forum activity

    • Day 4 – Weaving Knowledge - Reflection on your own

       Join us for a Closing Circle where we will be exchanging perspectives on our individual and collective learning. 

    •  Day 5 – My (Heart’s) Calls to Action – Discussion Forum activity

    As a starting point, please watch our welcome messages and go to “First Encounters” (FORUM #1) to introduce yourself. You may find it interesting to locate yourself first.  On whose traditional territory do you currently live and work? How do you know?
