Name
Relational Social Studies Education and Research with Indigenous Communities
Description

All education occurs on Indigenous Lands. Despite this reality, U.S. social studies education and research has reinforced settler colonialism through curricula, teacher education, professional development, policy work, and more. This session introduces a new book (Relational Scholarship with Indigenous Communities: Confronting Settler Colonial Social Studies, published by Information Age Publishing) that includes contributions from Montana educators, researchers, leaders, and community members. In addition to overviewing individual chapters, presenters will describe overall co-authorship processes and ways contributors engaged in conversations and collaboration with community thought partners, between chapters, and about the book as a whole. The session offers methodological guidance for teachers, researchers, teacher educators, curriculum developers, and policymakers looking to learn about scholarly processes and partnerships with Indigenous communities.
