Student Perspectives on Incorporating Indigenous Knowledges and Anti-colonial Approaches to an Undergraduate Biology Course
How would you include Indigenous knowledges and anti-colonial approaches to science in an undergraduate science course? The Making Connections project is a collaboration between student co-developers, the Beaty Biodiversity Museum and faculty from Forestry, Botany, Zoology, and Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences that seeks to design a new biology course focused on natural history collections and biodiversity science. Join the Making Connections team for a discussion on course design, inter-faculty collaboration, and the process of designing a course that centers Indigenous knowledge, approaches, and expertise in science and museum studies.
