10 Review of 2011 Commissioner s Listening Session with Tribal Leaders Ensure that students are comfortable in schools need to acknowledge cultural traditions and language. Native values and ways of learning should be known, recognized, and used. The Tribal Leaders Position Paper should be used to make changes. The entire Indian Education Act needs to be considered for a full review. The need for teachers to better understand the culture and history of American Indians in Minnesota. All students need to be taught about Indian history to better understand their own history and that of Minnesota. Native people need to be recruited to serve on boards, committees, and commissions. education.state.mn.us 10
11 Review of 2012 Governor s Summit on Indian Education Most Useful Chance to share between urban educators and educators on or near reservations Practical sense that Indian Education is beneficial for everybody. Engaging MDE staff and networking with members of Tribal Nations The level of commitment exhibited by the Commissioners of Education Involvement in legislation information Looking forward to further conversation Providing a listserv of Summit participants Excellent energy I hope this is the beginning of some defined action Reinforce that everybody is part of the process for quality Indian Education. The State can t fund it all. People need to step up and figure out ways to make the changes. education.state.mn.us 11
12 Analytic Review of Key Indian Education Documents Synthesized eleven key documents according to seven current state and national themes. Most significant theme was Theme 1: Closing the achievement/opportunity gap for American Indian students indicates urgency and significance among stakeholders. In Indian-authored documents, universal attention was paid to Theme 7: Honor treaty and other legal obligations and fulfill trust responsibilities for American Indian Education In non-indian-authored documents, there was little to no mention of Theme 7, indicating a need to build a common understanding of the importance of this theme among stakeholders. education.state.mn.us 12
