The description of the event.

Montana’s schools have broken new ground with a curriculum called Indian Education for All (IEFA) that explores the culture and history of our Native American nations. In this, the first of two sessions, we will pull from the work already done in Montana schools to explore how libraries can better serve Native Americans in our communities, and to help promote and preserve the rich culture of our state.  First, we’ll explore the concept of implicit bias and how our personal heritage can be a hidden barrier to reaching out and serving our whole communities. The follow-up session in this two-part class will be held at the same time on 11/18.

            The presenters, Miranda Murray and Jordann Lankford, are Indian Education for All instructional coaches for the Great Falls Public School District. They are the lead facilitators for Bright Trail Education, an educational consulting company. Murray and Lankford have presented their work throughout the United States and have been recognized for their roles in Indian Education for All and dropout prevention.

Portions of this session will be recorded and posted to the MSL Vimeo Channel.
