Fifth Freedom Eagle with Attitude :: Thinking Indian
Over the years the environment and human interaction significantly affected the inherited traits of individuals. I believe thinking Indian is not just a philosophical approach, it is a cognitive process. If American Indian people ever stop “thinking Indian,” we will become cognitively extinct.
There has been significant research related to Indian students and learning modalities, styles and specialized pedagogy, but it is often juxtaposed with Western theories of learning and cognitive processing. The tribal colleges have intrinsically become centers of “Indian thinking” and need to continue their practices and research to improve American Indian
student outcomes.
Richard B. Williams is the president and CEO of the American Indian College Fund, the nation’s largest provider of private scholarships for American Indian students seeking to better their lives and communities through a college education at the nation’s 33 accredited tribal colleges and universities.

Affirmation of INTERdependence

Subject: WakarUSA NextSteps as "Social Responsibility Pathfinders" ::
Wetlands Survival Preparedness "Ancient Voices" (9408am)
For over 50 years (195x-2009), I've been seeking ALL-WinWin actionable distilled insights (thinkLets) that could be easily shared with next generation "Agile Leaders" to neutralize cumulative effects of Zero-Sum Game (C4I = Art of War) manifest destiny myths!
As a Praire Passage Pathfinder, I began by adapting prior "lessons learned" to help my daughters envision sustainable wellbeing (LIFE, Liberty and pursuit of happiness) ... I discovered that my "near peer" Kansas Supreme Court (KSC) Justice Bob-RL Gernon was pursuing a similar path with both his daughters upon my return to the Kaw Valley (2004).
What was the uncommon denominator we shared as KU B-School undergraduates and hyperactive collaborative members of the same Windmill Hill social fraternity?
So, I began to adapt "CyberCrime Fighting" social network analysis (memetic research skills) to help empower PREsponse Systems Thinking (Be Aware or Beware). The results of adapting MnSCU-iTeach 2002 "Blended Visual Learning" is our group decision support systems i4CQuest model that was inspired by this "Affirmation of INTERdependence"

"Dr. Charles offers a message about children and their curiosityabout nature that connects well with our school district's wellness initiative and with our curricular standards.
Her work nationally with communities will be beneficial to all community groups who are interested in promoting more outdoor learning opportunities for the children of Douglas County," said Bruce Passman, USD 497 deputy superintendent.See the complete USD 497 Press ReleaseOutside for a Better Inside - Nature Education Summit Video
