connects people, land, and language
orality and language are central to IK, they shape worldviews that cannot be fully captured in english or written text

Ethical implications for Teachers & students
we must question, engage and understand technology mindfully
include marginalized and indigenous perspectives by ‘actively presenting multiple knowledges’
teachers must critically examine how classroom technologies (physical & digital) shape who we are, how we learn and who’s knowledge is valued or silenced
Superficial Inclusion of IK
When teachers use AI, it risks producing shallow representations of IK
they do not fully represent Indigenous relational and contextual nature
How can we use AI mindfully?
recognize its limitations
teachers must maintain ethical awareness and pedagogical integrity
