  This organization was founded in 1997 by Dr. Hans Peterson

  Dr. David Schindler

  Sue Peterson and others in hopes of addressing the lack of safe drinking water in communities around the world. Initially focusing on science and technological innovation and development and increasing peoples' awareness and improving education concerning water issues primarily in rural areas. In the last few years the organization has focused exclusively on education with the development of curriculum

  delivery of webinars and policy work around water for small communities (which often involves First Nations).\nI have served on the board of directors

  on the education and technical committees and have helped the organization in various ways.\nThis organization relies entirely upon donations and is not funded by the governments at any level. \nOne of our main funders is Toronto Dominion Friends of the Environment (which is a funder separate from Toronto Dominion itself). Please visit the organization's web site for further information.

  Inquiry Oriented Learning in First Nation

  Metis and Inuit Contexts

  This research project involves investigating the practice of teachers who are are successfully engaging their learners through inquiry approaches in science learning. This involves interviewing teachers identified by their peers and colleagues as having success in using inquiry in FNMI contexts. The research is funded by the Presidents SSHRC fund. Writing of the final document is underway.\n

  Teachers on the Beamline

  This project brings teachers in training (teacher candidates) into contact with science researchers at the Canadian Light Source (CLS)

  Canada's only synchrotron

  for the purpose of doing original science research. Many teachers of science have little if any actual research experience

  having knowledge concerning the \"products of science\" but less knowledge and experience in the process of science. This project seek to address this discrepancy and gauge if this type of involvement is beneficial in the development of teachers and later in the experience of these teachers' students.

  STEMfest 2015

  Science on Stage Canada has been invited to participate in STEMfest 2015 in Saskatoon Saskatchewan. SOSC will be organizing a series of events with educators from across Canada

  bringing them to Saskatoon to share their \"innoventive\" teaching approaches and programs at this conference of conferences.

  Science on Stage Canada Organization and Festival (2014)

  Science on Stage Canada is an educational initiative. We successfully obtained our charity number from the Canadian government in 2015. Recently

  a SOSC event was held at the international STEMfest 2015 in Saskatoon

  Saskatchewan. Previous to that the 2014 festival was hosted on June 25-28th in St-Hyacinthe

  Quebec. With the support from CEGEP de Saint-Hyacinthe and the SoSC Board members

  the festival was a great success. There were delegates from Ontario

  Quebec

  Saskatchewan

  Alberta

  British Columbia and Europe who shared their best practices with their peers. These included exhibitions of the science educator projects

  presentations

  networking between delegates

  and involve pedagogical discussions concerning science teaching and learning. \nOur organization is funded in part by the Tri Council funding body Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC). We thank NSERC for their support and look forward to using these funds to advance science education in Canada and worldwide in cooperation with Science on Stage Europe.\n

  Privileging Indigenous Knowledge

  Unfolding Western Science

  This project involves the development of coursework for teacher candidates with a focus on Indigenous and Western ways of knowing.\n\nThis work seeks to aid teachers by helping them delve in to the nature of knowledge and knowing through an indepth investigation and “unfolding” of Western or Euro-centric science using gender

  race

  class and human rights. The processes of unfolding hinge on questions and considerations of knowledge creation that address “who is talking”

  “what are they saying”

  “how are they saying” and “where are they saying” and constitutes an exploration of whose knowledge counts

  when

  where

  how

  why and to what purpose. This unfolding is accompanied by a privileging of Indigenous knowledge through teacher candidates involvement with Indigneous knowledge holders with the aim of developing approaches and providing opportunities for teacher to develop more sophisticated

  informed and nuanced ways of Indigenous ways of knowing and honouring Indigeneous knowledge as science learning. \n\nDr. Williamson and I have given several presentations on various aspects of our collaboration which include CSSE 2011: Anti-Racist and Science Education: Bridging Pedagogies

  CSSE 2012: Negotiating Vulnerability and Risk in Anti-Racist Education and CSSE 2014: Indigenous Science Education: A Critical Conversation.

  Indigenous Water Forum

  The Indigenous water forum will be held October 27 and 28 at Whitecap Dakota First Nation.\nThis forum will bridge people’s knowledge of water through sharing of indigenous ways of knowing

  research presentations and demonstrations of practical applications. The purpose of the forum is to make recommendations for action-oriented strategies to achieve safe drinking water in First Nations communities.\nRegistration:\n\nhttps://ccdeconference.usask.ca/index.aspx?cid=249\n

  physical education as well as coaching various sports and running outdoor and environment education clubs. In the last years of my secondary school teaching I worked primarily with inner city students most often of First Nation heritage from various reserves in the southern part of Saskatchewan. I had the opportunity to work with many Elders

  other educators and parents on local and provincial levels in the community

  discussing and planning so as to improve the educational experience for children of First Nation

  Metis and Inuit heritage.

  The objectives of this work are to offer discussion concerning challenges related to learners’ perceptions of course and career choices related to scientific and technology fields (Sjøberg

  2007); to identify and propose feasible proactive solutions to encourage learners’ commitment and interest in science for formal and informal science teaching and learning situations; and to present a three-pronged framework

  “science as word

  as world

  and as person” for thinking about and integrating science for designing lessons

  outreach programs

  and recruitment strategies.
