Welcome to Etuapmumk in Science


This is a professional development workshop for educators where we will be exploring Two-Eyed Seeing in research conducted at Canada's only synchrotron - for a mere $25!

Who should participate? Anyone involved in science education at the post-secondary or undergraduate and high school or CEGEP levels interested in weaving together Indigenous perspectives with mainstream science approaches. We will introduce you to various people working across science disciplines and the research they are involved in - demonstrating our developing approaches to Indigenization for teaching. Resources to support your classroom are included.
