Download or read book Aboriginal Cultures in Alberta written by Susan Berry and published by University of Alberta. This book was released on 2004-06-15 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This heavily illustrated, full colour book uses the framework of historical narrative to elucidate the past 11,000 years of Aboriginal history in present-day Alberta. In so doing, it conveys the challenges that Aboriginal people have confronted and celebrates the enduring legacy that they have created. From medicine wheels, buffalo jumps, and rock art images, the story moves forward through the fur trade era, the disappearance of the bison, and the long years of cultural suppression that followed the signing of treaties. Importantly, the story carries through to the present day, exploring grassroots political and cultural movements of the 1960s, contemporary self-government initiatives, and the ongoing reclamation of Aboriginal voice. Aboriginal Cultures in Alberta: Five Hundred Generations also showcases the diversity of Aboriginal groups in Alberta. The book was developed in consultation with and features the experiences and perspectives of Elders and representatives from First Nations and Metis communities throughout the province. With its recognition that Aboriginal people are a vital part of contemporary society, Aboriginal Cultures in Alberta: Five Hundred Generations makes an important contribution toward fostering an understanding of Aboriginal history and culture in Alberta.

As part of Ministry commitment to the Government of Alberta's Aboriginal Policy Initiative (API), a key priority is to improve First Nations, Inuit and Metis learner success. In the spring of 1999, a review of the 1987 Native Education Policy was initiated. An extensive public consultation process involving over 5,000 participants laid the foundation for the development of the "First Nations, Metis and Inuit Education (FNMI) Policy Framework." During the consultations, a Native Education Policy Review (NEPR) Advisory Committee was established consisting of First Nations and Metis authorities, other key education stakeholders and government. In 2002, the Government of Alberta released the "First Nations, Metis and Inuit (FNMI) Education Policy Framework."

It provides an update on the progress made since the release of the FNMI Education Policy Framework. Current actions are referenced against the goals and strategies recommended in the FNMI Education Policy Framework. The strategies that correspond with the five priority actions recommended by the NEPR Advisory committee are identified with an asterisk.
