Title:
Wandering With/In the University of Alberta: Teaching Subjects & Place-based Truth & Reconciliation Education

Authors:
Brooke Madden, Craig Kenneth Michaud, Tarah Edgar & Jennifer Jones

From the abstract:
"This manuscript unfolds in the context of a Faculty of Education course that was designed in response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada’s call to post-secondary institutions to identify and meet teacher-training needs relating to the history and legacy of Canada’s Indian residential school system. The course instructor (Madden) begins by tracing how she is theorizing truth and reconciliation education through engagement with literature produced by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, and those who respond to their efforts. The pedagogical activity Wandering With/In the University of Alberta animates how she attempted to mobilize these emerging understandings through course design."
