Jennifer Ward Educational Developer
Centre for Teaching and Learning,
University of Alberta
I am Umpqua, Walla Walla and Algonquin. The focus of my doctoral studies within the Faculty of Native Studies at the University of Alberta, is the Indigenizing and Decolonizing of the academy and post-secondary education. As an Educational Developer within the Centre for Teaching and Learning at the University of Alberta, I support faculty to weave Indigenous perspectives into their curriculum and practice.
