ES 244 - Native American Story Telling

Institution:

Lane Community College

Subject:

Description:

4 credits This course is designed for students to experience the art of teaching and learning in the oral tradition adopted from the Native American traditions of the instructor. Students will be required to learn the socio/cultural context in which some Native American stories are based. Students will gain an understanding of the term "tribal" by doing some research on their own ethnic tribal roots and compare it to the definition presented by the instructor. Rather than learning different tribal stories and discussing them, students will learn the social, cultural and environmental grounds for Native American stories, create their own stories, present them to class and the class will learn them (all done orally), and then discuss the stories.
