A comparative study of indigenous content of multicultural teacher education textbooks in Canada and the United States.

Year: 2004

Type: dissertation

Abstract: The focus of the most currently published Canadian textbooks was on indigenous education and, to a lesser extent indigenous history and culture. The focus of the most currently published United States textbooks was on indigenous education. Both countries' textbooks focused on education. Canada's, however, focused on indigenous culture as well. Focus on history in the more currently published textbooks was limited to Canada. The education focus in the United States textbooks centered mainly around school-level discussions, such as curriculum and classroom practices. The Canadian education focus, however, was more on theories and personal experiences.
