研究了加拿大西北地区乌卢哈克托克的因纽特人中环境知识和土地技能的传播。一个83个技能的重要性,安全和成功的收获清单产生了14个积极的猎人和长者,并与47名男子的样本进行了检查。这项研究发现,土地技能继续通过在环境中的观察和学徒制从老一辈传给年轻一代。然而,各代人之间的技能传授率存在差异,年轻受访者的平均传授率最低。一些技能在年轻的受访者中传播得很好,包括一般的狩猎和营地相关技能,但其他技能,如在海冰上旅行和传统的导航技能,则没有。某些技能的丧失和其他技能的不完全传播与缺乏技能教师、母语的丧失和教育环境的变化有关。
The transmission of environmental knowledge and land skills was studied among Inuit men in Ulukhaktok, Northwest Territories, Canada. A list of 83 skills important for safe and successful harvesting was generated with 14 active hunters and elders, and examined with a sample of 47 men. This research found that land skills continue to be transmitted most often from older to younger generations through observation and apprenticeship in the environment. However there is a difference in the rate of skills transmission among generations, with average transmission rates lowest among younger respondents. Some skills were transmitted well among younger respondents including general hunting and camp-related skills, but others such as traveling on the sea ice and traditional navigation skills were not. Loss of certain skills and incomplete transmission of others were related to the absence of skills teachers, loss of native language, and changes in the educational environment.
