This resource supports provincial implementation of the Well-Being and Resiliency Framework by outlining an evaluative framework that recognizes culturally-based practice and assesses program effectiveness and the achievement of outcomes in a meaningful way. The miyo resource was developed recognizing that western-based evaluation practices are generally not effective when working with Indigenous communities.

Implementation of the project occurred during the 2004-05 school year with the objective of addressing the needs of FNMI learners in sixteen pilot schools across Alberta. A collaborative approach among school staffs, Aboriginal parents, Elders, jurisdiction leaders, Alberta Education, and Aboriginal communities resulted in the implementation of a wide variety of innovative practices designed to improve FNMI student outcomes at individual pilot schools. The FNMI School-Community Learning Environment Project - Promising Practices Report (2007) highlights these promising practices in light of current research. Current research regarding factors that contribute to First Nations, Metis and Inuit (FNMI) student success in schools has increased over the past few years with five prevalent themes emerging in relation to positive practices for success. In addition to these five themes the report reviews two additional areas that were specific to this project. One area of review was approaches to data collection inherent to the project and a second area highlighted the approaches that pilot schools used to identify barriers to success faced by their FNMI students. The report provides readers with an overview of current research with promising practices organized into the following seven areas: Data Collection; Identification of Barriers; FNMI Parent and Community Engagement; FNMI Cultural & Language Programming; Teachers, Instruction and Curriculum/Resources; Professional Development; Individual Student Supports. The following represents an overview of common practices and approaches used by FNMI School-Community Learning Environment Project schools with more detailed information contained in the report.2015-08-13T16:21:38.935739+00:00https://open.alberta.ca/dataset/ac8dc334-8f7a-432e-bb55-c5208db1a593Our words, our ways : teaching First Nations, Métis and Inuit learners [2005]2022-09-07T20:00:26.332992+00:00This resource is intended to help classroom teachers and staff better serve the needs of their Aboriginal students.
