Vector The Official Journal of the BC Association of Mathematics Teachers  has published an article authored by Ms. ALam]na Underwood and entitled "Mathematics Catcher: Indigenizing Mathematics Through Culturally-Based Storytelling."

Here is the Conclusion of the article:

"In conclusion, I feel that incorporating Aboriginal perspectives in the curriculum benefits both indigenous and non-indigenous students, but I do not think that there is a simple 鈥渇ix all鈥� method to do this, or that incorporating culturally based stories is the best solution. Experimenting with how to use the Math Catcher films as a resource in my class, I feel that indigenizing the curriculum is not about teaching students facts about First Nations鈥� people but instead it pertains to encouraging teachers to immerse their students into Aboriginal pedagogical practices, thus, allowing students to experience First Nations鈥� culture."
