Welcome!
One of our projects at the Research Design Studio has been to support the National Museum of the American Indian’s National Education Initiative called Native Knowledge 360º. NMAI is creating new materials for teachers and students to use in classrooms to ensure students have access to culturally accurate and appropriate information examining the history and culture of Native Americans in the U.S.
We are now actively seeking teachers who have USED these materials to share their experiences with us to be included in our national study of the effectiveness of the NMAI materials. If you have not seen the instructional materials yet – scroll down to see the primary pages.
If you HAVE used the materials – we invite you to share your responses with us in whatever method works best for you. We can send you surveys for you and/or your students, you can use our secure digital upload space for your survey responses, we can come see you teach the content, or we can connect over the phone or web conference. If you have not….please see the links below for access.
