Sharing One Skin: The Okanagan Community

This story was about what the word Okanagan means to them, how they represent themselves as people. When they speak their language it is not spoken for their people but to tell a story about themselves when one is spoken. It also talks about how we can easily get entertained by technology, and when we get in physical contact with people we make different decisions then we would over text, or email. When people get together they help each other, spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically. They engage with each other in their community, that is what makes the Okanagan sacred and one whole family.

Native American Identity

This story is about how we are losing our knowledge of our own culture, the first sentence of the story says ¨someday we´re all going to be like white people¨ it's scary to think like that but who knows maybe someday we will be. It also talks about if our ancestors from 100 years ago sawso saw how we are living today they would say it is not how they grew up, it was mandatory to learn, speak and teach the culture. Parents were strict about their children, unlike now it is hard to get people to learn, it is all about technology.

Indian Education: Maintaining Tribal Sovereignty Through Native American Culture and Language Preservation

This article was about how the language and tradition is coming to a loss. But back then students would have to learn english, the adults would punish students if they spoke their native language. In boarding schools they forbade them from speaking their language and made them cut off their long hair. Then they got to start speaking after ¨the act¨ the purpose of it is equal access to education. ¨About 90 percent of all American Indian and Alaska Native students attend regular public schools with only 7 percent attending schools administered by the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs.46¨ - pg 9 paragraph 3 line 4.

Report outlines deficiencies in education for Native American Students

In this article is about the impact aid, and if they were to remove it, and how it would impact the different tribal education departments. Also what the legislative should and should not do. It also talks about what should be done in tribal schools, and how money comes into the families that cannot afford school. Then how the State Rep. From Sandia Pueblo Derrick Lente, "I'm disappointed because it seems that the LFC and the staff believes that its own experts - and I say this with all due respect - that they believe their own experts know more about Indian education and Indian life and Indian communities than our own renowned indigenous experts, our own renowned indigenous tribal leadership, and those that are close to the communities," that is what he had to say about the Yazzie/ Martinez lawsuit and the indian education act.

Technology and Interactive Media as Tools in Early Childhood Programs Serving Children from Birth through Age 8

In this article, it's about technology at the age 8 years old. How different stages of technology throughout the years affected the brain, and how we are today. “The distinction among the devices, the content, and the user experience has been blurred by multi touch screens and movement-activated technologies that detect and respond to the child’s movements”. Television is a different type of “screen time” than a tablet or computer, because you have the screen right in front of you, and a tv is far away. Today's kids technology and media are tools that are effective only when used appropriately.
