Paddling as resistance? Exploring an Indigenous approach to land-based education amongst Manitoba youth
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A group involving Métis and Indigenous graduate students from the University of Manitoba and inner-city Indigenous youth developed and participated in an outdoor adventure-based canoe trip in Quetico Provincial Park. The five-day trip was steeped in Métis, Voyageur and Indigenous history and ceremony. This ensuing paper focuses on what is at stake when taking a decolonizing approach toward land-based education involving both Indigenous and non-Indigenous participants that aspires to (re)introduce Indigenous practices, environments and ceremonies. Inspired by recognizing the complexities involved in creating physical activity and sport programming for Indigenous youth under colonial structures within and outside of the academy, we seek to both illuminate and deconstruct the possibilities of measuring the transformative effects that such a trip has on all those involved, including the youth, mentors, and researchers. Drawing on the results of a qualitative study using both Indigenous and Western approaches, we present community-based research focusing on the impacts these experiences have on community building, identity, and decolonization.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
