    Aboriginal Studies 10 is a foundational course that provides a background understanding for Aboriginal Studies 20 and 30. 
    The goal of this course is to encourage students to make connections between the past, the present, and the future. By reviewing and exploring the perspectives, histories, and experiences of Aboriginal peoples in the past, students gain a greater understanding of Aboriginal people in contemporary society. 
    General Outcome: Students will demonstrate an understanding of the diverse cultural characteristics, origins, and migration and settlement patterns of Aboriginal peoples.
