Section outline

The focal point of Aboriginal Studies 10-20-30 is the wealth and diverse nature of Aboriginal languages and cultures. Aboriginal Studies 10 course reflects the perspectives and worldviews of Aboriginal peoples. It includes the study of traditions and history of Aboriginal peoples in Canada, and particularly in Alberta.

The four themes for the course are:

1. Origin and Settlement Patterns

2. Aboriginal Worldviews

3. Political and Economic Organization

4. Aboriginal Symbolism and Expression

*Note: There is no pre-requisite for this 5 credit course.

Disclaimer:

It is important to note that by its very nature, it is impossible to represent all Aboriginal cultures in this course. The course will deal with 'generalities' and 'representative examples' and it will vary depending on the different teachings, locations, cultures, and circumstances. Much of what you will study is open to interpretation and much of the information is changing on an ongoing basis.
