February 3rd – Levin Article

In the paper that Levin created, he states that politics and policy are the primary and most significant factors in determining the curriculum. People who hold positions of authority in a society are the ones who engage in politics because they are in a place to collect the ideas and beliefs held by members of that community and translate them into laws. For this reason, I constantly research the parties and what they want to promote because nowadays, people don’t care as much, which can worry some as some bad people with bad intentions can get power and control everything. The ability to push back the progress people have been trying to make education more inclusive and all the other problems. My point is critical to do research and vote.

It was a fascinating experience reading the paper that discussed the results and indications of treaties. It is noteworthy to note how concise these learning goals are, considering how useful and applicable they are, as discussed in the lecture. Despite this, applying these results in Saskatchewan has been done appropriately and helpfully. Within the classrooms in my community, I’ve observed a significant change in implementing activities and resources that strongly connect to these curricular goals, saying that I am a white settler in our society. Still, I feel we are moving in the right direction toward proper treaty education that teachers and school communities prioritize. But lots of work to do, but we are headed on the right path.
