Reflections of amiskwaciy: Indigenous protocols in open education
6 R's of Indigenous OER to provide an Indigenous focused framework for incorporating Indigenous Knowledges into openly-licensed teaching and learning materials. The R's are influenced by the FAIR/CARE Principles for Indigenous Data Sovereignty, OCAP, and were originally adapted from the 4 R's of First Nations and Higher Education and the UBC Longhouse Teachings. This talk discusses new developments in the 6 R's based on the presenters own refection and protocols.
