Some Challenges Teaching First Nations

"Why fixing First Nations education remains so far out of reach
Aboriginal youth face a fate that should horrify Canadians and there’s an obvious fix"

My last employer was the First Nations Technology Council, and as such we tried to address some of the problems in education with 203 first nations communities in BC. Maclean's has an interesting article why we are failing these communities. 
It is a bit bleak, but this is how some feel in the communities. I might point out that I have a more optimistic view than Maclean's. However, these issues contribute to the difficulties teaching of these communities. What do you think?

  1. well it is back to the grind again. I have another blog that is required of me in the PIDP program, and instead of rewriting the thing over again, I am resubmitting this one.
