| dc.description.abstract | This qualitative research study Tipachimowin: Students and Professors Share Stories about their Winnipeg Education Centre Experience is a study of selected Aboriginal students and professors who were involved with the Winnipeg Education Centre (WEC) program. WEC is an inner city teacher education program that started in the late 1970s, though this study’s focus is in the1980s. During that era, there was an influx of students who attended the program to address the need for more Aboriginal teachers in Manitoba and to address poverty in low income communities (Clare, 2013; Poonwassie & Poonwassie, 2001). The participants shared stories of their life journeys and educational experiences related to their participation as students of WEC. They described the impact the teacher education program had on their lives. This study also explored the pedagogy and teaching methodology of two professors who taught at WEC during the 1980s. | en_US |
