The Callysto Tla'amin Basket Project is a joint initative by the Tla'amin Nation, the Math Catcher Outreach Program, and the Program.

The main goal of our project is to provide to students and teachers a multidisciplinary learning resource that may be used at different levels of instruction. At the same time, and equally important, we wish to share with the academic and non-academic community our firm belief that using elements of Indigenous cultures and traditions in Canadian classrooms must be done in collaboration with the Indigenous community and with mutual respect. In addition, with this project we wish to promote the Callysto program and the use of the Jupyter notebooks as a powerful tool in creation learning resources and a learning resource itself.

More information about the notebooks together with the detailed instructions how to access them is posted at  .

"We鈥檝e got another TRC-related story that looks at the commission鈥檚 recommendation which called on academic institutions and their faculty members to make meaningful contributions to the reconciliation process. Veselin Jungic of 丁香园AV explains a fascinating community-led partnership project where his university is using mathematics to explore the tradition of Indigenous basketweaving." -- Scott White, The Conversation
