Alaska Rural Systemic Initiative, Phase II

阿拉斯加土著人研究所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，并制定教学实践和课程，将土著知识和认知方式适当纳入正规教育体系。阿拉斯加农村资源研究所改革战略的系统性改革重点是促进两个相互依存但历史上互不联系、相互疏远的复杂系统之间的联系和互补性-土著知识系统植根于居住在阿拉斯加农村的土著文化，而正规教育系统则是为满足农村土著社区的教育需求而引进的。在这些不断发展的系统中，每个系统都有丰富的互补科学和数学知识，可以加强教育经验，提高阿拉斯加农村学生的学习成绩。以下举措构成了AKRSI教育改革战略：文化一致的课程/文化标准乡村科学应用和职业/ANSES分会、营地和展览会土著科学知识库/多媒体文化地图集开发土著认识方式/家长参与老年人和文化营地/老年人学院上述倡议将在逐个地区的基础上实施，在第一阶段的基础上，在第二阶段结束时，将改革进程纳入学校和地区的日常工作，达到可持续的水平。 此外，还将实施一系列全州范围的倡议，以支持地方和区域一级的活动。以下是第二阶段期间与区域倡议实施有关的全州倡议摘要。科学表现标准和评估阿拉斯加文化响应学校标准课程的文化框架土著教育家协会阿拉斯加土著知识网络阿拉斯加土著高等教育联盟的经验和在第一阶段取得的学术成就的成功，是第二阶段的基本战略，但将继续与更大的强度和划定。的重点。活动地点将在与这些学校的合作伙伴相同的20个农村学区，第二阶段的主要区别是集中精力，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.
