Class Notes:
This seminar broadly explores the centrality of Land, water, and place as core determinants of physical, intellectual, ecological and mental health, and how to design for more just and flourishing worlds. Together, we will engage in activities and design projects that cultivate Indigenous leadership, intersectional justice, and restorative nature-culture relations as foundational to human learning and becoming and the imagining of educational futures especially at this time of human history. A key question in this class is: How might we design and study pedagogies that attune to dynamic nature-culture relationships that are constitutive of place? How can ideas of relative-ness in teaching and learning help disrupt human supremacy as the settled infrastructures and normative societal frames of teaching and learning? Our discussions of Land here refers to both the philosophies of place and the physical geographies of land including forests, plants, fish, animals and spirit and ancestral relations - sustained and predicated on Indigenous sovereignty. In this course we will discuss land-based educational designs that advance Indigenous sovereignty across formal and informal environments, land, water, and place-based pedagogies that attune to the relation between micro-interactions among humans and the natural world, human development, and climate adaptation. We will broadly discuss examples of land-based and Indigenous approaches to strengthening Indigenous families, communities, and nations. In the course we will explore and enact land-based design methodologies and pedagogies of mobility and how to study them through attention to land and water-based phenomena, and pedagogies such as Indigenous making, reading, walking and storying lands. This course is synchronous.
