Alaska Rural Systemic Initiative, Phase II

AK RSI的根本目的是实施一系列举措，记录阿拉斯加土著人的土著知识体系，并开发教学实践和课程，将土著知识和认识方式适当地纳入正规教育体系。AKRSI改革战略的系统改革重点是促进两个相互依存但在历史上不相连的、疏远的复杂系统之间的联系和互补——一个是植根于阿拉斯加农村土著文化的土著知识系统，另一个是为满足农村土著社区的教育需求而引进的正规教育系统。在这些不断发展的系统中，每个系统都有丰富的互补的科学和数学知识，可以用来加强教育经验，提高阿拉斯加农村学生的学习成绩。以下举措构成AKRSI的教育改革战略：符合文化的课程/文化标准/乡村科学应用和职业/ANSES分会、营地和公平土著科学知识库/多媒体文化地图集开发土著认识方式/家长参与长者和文化营地/长者学院上述措施将按地区实施。在第一阶段的基础上，到第二阶段结束时，将改革过程融入学校和学区的日常工作中，达到可持续的水平。此外，将实施一系列全州范围的倡议，以支持地方和区域层面的活动。以下是与第二阶段实施区域倡议相关的全州倡议的摘要。数学/科学成绩标准和评估阿拉斯加州文化响应学校标准课程文化框架阿拉斯加州本土教育者协会阿拉斯加州本土知识网络阿拉斯加州本土高等教育联盟在第一阶段获得的经验和学术成就是第二阶段的基本策略，但将以更大的强度和范围继续下去。的重点。作为这些学校的合作伙伴，活动地点将设在同样的20个农村学区，第二阶段的主要区别是努力的集中和更加强调倡议的可持续性。

The underlying purpose of the AK RSI has been to implement a set of initiatives to documentthe indigenous knowledge systems of Alaska Native people and develop pedagogical practicesand curricula that appropriately incorporate indigenous knowledge and ways of knowing intothe formal education system. The systemic reform focus of the AKRSI reform strategy is thefostering of connectivity and complementarity between two interdependent but historicallydisconnected, alienated complex systems - the indigenous knowledge systems rooted in the Native cultures that inhabit rural Alaska, and the formal education systems imported to serve the educational needs of rural Native communities. Within each of these evolving systems is a rich body of complementary scientific and mathematical knowledge that can serve to strengthen the educational experiences and improve the academic performance of students throughout rural Alaska. The following initiatives constitute AKRSI educational reform strategy: Culturally Aligned Curriculum/Cultural StandardsVillage Science Applications and Careers/ANSES Chapters, Camps and FairsIndigenous Science Knowledge Base/Multimedia Cultural Atlas DevelopmentNative Ways of Knowing/Parent InvolvementElders and Cultural Camps/Academy of EldersThe initiatives above will be implemented on a region-by-region basis, building on Phase Ito integrate the reform process into the everyday workings of the schools and districtsto a sustainable level by the end of Phase Il. Also an array of statewide intiative will be implemented to support the activities at the local and regional levels.Following is a summary of the statewide initiatives relative to the implementation of the Regional initiatives during Phase II.Math/Science Performance Standards and AssessmentsAlaska Standards for Culturally Responsive SchoolsCultural Frameworks for CurriculumNative Educator AssociationsAlaska Native Knowledge NetworkConsortium for Alaska Native Higher EducationThe experience and academic achievement successes gained during Phase I, are the basic strategy for Phase II, but will be continued with greater intensity and delineation. of emphases. The locus of activity will be in the same 20 rural school districts as partners in those schools with the primary differences during Phase II being the concentration of effort and increased emphases on sustainability of the initiatives.
