EFP 11 Core Competency

My Artifact:

Photo Project

Curricular Competency Reflection:

This assignment reflected on the land we reside on and many other indigenous communities within BC. I learned a lot about the territory I live on which I felt was really impactful. I feel I really benefited from the concepts of land, and community and how it has affected indigenous communities throughout the years. After visiting all these places and learning about the various groups that the land belongs to it made me realize how fortunate we are to be able to live and grow on the land we have. This project has truly expanded my knowledge of indigenous communities and I am proud of the work I’ve completed.

Core Competency Reflection:

Thinking: During this assignment, I had to share the photos and experiences I went through while being on the traditional lands of many different indigenous communities. I also had to reflect deeply on the stories behind the places I visited and how they are related to the indigenous peoples as well as how the colonization of the land has impacted them.

Curricular Competencies Reflection

Comprehend and Connect:

I am proud of this artifact, not only because I achieved well on it, but rather because of how my writing represented my beliefs. By explaining my viewpoint and discovering indigenous storytelling, I have proven the curricular competency of being able to comprehend and connect. I’ve discovered that you can convey knowledge, cultures, heritage, values, and more through storytelling and was able to express my knowledge of these topics well throughout the assignment.

Core Competencis Reflection

Thinking:

Thinking, is the core competency that I feel I was able to truly develop and elaborate on during this assessment. This is due to the fact that, in contrast to other tasks, this one required me to utilize a lot of imagination and consider deeply how I felt about the principles, ideas, and themes that the indigenous people had taught me. I’m glad to have been able to forge a strong connection and think thoroughly about the principles we share because without this assignment, neither my objectives nor my understanding of indigenous cultures would have expanded.
