The Provincial First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Professional Learning Project calls for educators across the province to take actions to develop their understanding of creating relational spaces for First Nations, Métis, and Inuit perspectives and content in educational programming. The Professional Learning Project offers a wholistic collaborative inquiry paradigm for building educator capacity, engaging learners, and creating paths for success. The Professional Learning Project focuses on empowering educators to achieve success in the project’s goals of: Learning to Be, Learning to Know, Learning to Do, and Learning to Relate.

Professional Learning Project Process Steps
Provincial First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Professional Learning Project Goals
Learning to Be: How does what we do impact who we are?
Educators incorporate and model the attributes of an engaged thinker and ethical citizen with an entrepreneurial spirit in creating a relational space to include First Nations, Métis, and Inuit perspectives and content in educational programming. - How do you role model being an engaged thinker and ethical citizen with an entrepreneurial spirit in the context of bringing First Nations, Métis, and Inuit perspectives and content in educational programming?
Learning to Know: How does knowing relate to understanding?
Educators plan and deliver appropriate and engaging curriculum based on their understanding of historical events and current contextual realities which have impacted First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people and its effect on student learning. - How does knowing about historical events and current contextual realities relate to how you understand your students and communities differently?
Learning to Do:
How does empowering differ from delegating?
Educators build their capacity to acquire, connect, and understand the attributes, skills, and knowledge that contributes to effectively teaching First Nations, Métis, and Inuit content and perspectives to all students. - How can we empower educators with opportunities and resources to bring First Nations, Métis, and Inuit perspectives and content to curricular programming?
Learning to Relate:
How does where we learn impact how we learn?
Educators will enhance healthy relationships among all community members in order to relate and represent their cultural understanding of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit perspectives and content within community context. - How can First Nations, Métis, and Inuit students see themselves represented in their educational communities?
