This resource, The First Peoples Principles of Learning, was created by the BC Ministry of Education and First Nations Education Steering Committee in 2006/2007. The podcast already takes action with its team, production, and intent. The podcast supports the First Peoples' learning principles, to help with on-going learning but also with lesson implementation. It ties into the concept of how everything is connected, and investigates examples of communities, acceptance, and the entanglement of government systems. 

This podcast series aligns with the Indigenous Knowledge and Perspectives document, as it intends engage students in the social responsibility aspect of Indigenous knowledge when deciphering Canada's real history. Students are to further understand, promote, and support the reconciliation of Indigenous peoples in B.C. Secondly, this curricular document encourages new ways of approaching content, and citizenship by valuing, practicing, and prioritizing Indigenous knowledge and perspectives in B.C. 

CBC's websites are disorganized. There are separate sites for the podcast, transcript, and teaching guide. As a user, you'd have to search for them specifically as they are not linked or correlated with each published episode. Some episodes may not have supplemental teaching material.

If you are not a teacher or practitioner, it may come across as intimidating to tackle the podcasts' episodes. But the conversation held between the 2 female hosts, makes the learning new, appreciative and fun. Further research and inquiry can be completed before or after the episodes. 

I wished that the stories were easier to navigate or possibly organized by regions in Canada. That way listeners and subscribers can opt in with ease. Although that would defeat the purpose of spontaneous research and production of discovering stories in Canada that were never told. The unmasking is what makes this podcast refreshing.

Many of the topics discussed and held are best suited for grade 8-12 social studies. Therefore, a maturer audience is needed. It may be best to front-load and scaffold students for meaningful engagement.
