Expanded Course Description
This course will address methodological and ethical issues related to conducting research about and with Indigenous peoples, introducing students to the principles of Indigenous research related to practices, collaboration and ethics. Indigenous approaches to the construction of knowledge are explored with an emphasis on how Indigenous knowledges are implemented and practiced in methodological approaches to research. This course de-centers Western knowledge, theories and methodology, and disrupts Western perspectives on Indigenous knowledges and ways of knowing. The course will provide students with core understandings of Indigenous research methods and knowledges for ethical approaches to conducting research about or with Indigenous communities, grounded in respect, relationality, and reconciliation. While the course presents core theoretical constructs of Indigenous methods, it also provides students with a practical understanding and lessons about what constitutes appropriate research practices and how to engage ethically in Indigenous spaces and communities. The course highlights examples of respectful and meaningful engagement with and between Indigenous peoples, knowledges and ways of knowing, with greater insight into the relevance of Indigenous perspectives in knowledge and practice. The course is suggested for students who are considering conducting research about or with Indigenous communities, working in Indigenous policy, organizations and research contexts and should be taken prior to conducting fieldwork with Indigenous communities. The course is taught by Indigenous scholars who are experts in these areas, alongside tribal members who are traditional knowledge keepers and experienced in working in Indigenous research.
