Yuungnaqpiallerput (The Way We Genuinely Live) Masterworks of Yup'ik Science and Survival

安克雷奇历史和艺术博物馆将与卡莉斯塔长老委员会合作，开发一个5000平方英尺的巡回展览，展示19世纪爱斯基摩人的技术，他们的当代应用，以及潜在的科学过程。它将以Yup'ik文物为特色，将土著知识融入基础科学原理的教学中，并展示科学在日常生活中所发挥的作用。展览将围绕过去的季节性活动进行，并保留现代意义。俄勒冈科学与工业博物馆（OMSI）将开发现代科学技术的比较展览，而Imaginarium将开发互补的教育项目。主要观众将包括阿拉斯加农村的土著居民、青年和老年人、非阿拉斯加土著居民和游客，以及阿拉斯加以外的场所。通过展示土著知识如何与现代科学相关联，这个展览为非正式科学教育领域提供了一个如何将自己社区的文化方面纳入博物馆展览和项目的模式。此外，它还演示了人工制品和动手科学活动如何有效地结合起来，以创造引人入胜的教育体验。

The Anchorage Museum of History and Art, working with the Calista Elders Council, will develop a 5,000 sq ft traveling exhibition presenting 19th-century Yup'ik Eskimo technologies, their contemporary applications, and the underlying scientific processes. Featuring Yup'ik artifacts, it will integrate indigenous knowledge into the teaching of basic science principles as well as demonstrate the role played by science in everyday life. The exhibition will be organized around seasonal activities practiced in the past and retaining modern relevance. The Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI) will develop the comparative exhibits on modern science and technology, and the Imaginarium will develop complementary educational programming. Primary audiences will include rural Alaska Natives, both youth and elders, non-Native Alaska residents and visitors, as well as venues outside Alaska. By demonstrating how indigenous knowledge can be related to modern science, this exhibition provides a model for the informal science education field on how to incorporate cultural aspects of their own communities into museum exhibitions and programs. In addition, it demonstrates how artifacts and hands-on science activities can be combined effectively to create engaging educational experiences.
