description: In globalizing landscapes, Indigenous ways of knowing and being persist in their connectedness to specific geographies, even as they are transformed by migrations, both forced and voluntary, and dynamic exchanges. This paper presents narratives of Indigenous and ally scholars which explore what it means to enact language and culture reclamation from a place of hope—by Indigenous peoples, for Indigenous communities—and in connection with distinct historical, political, and geographic sites. By naming the identities the authors represent—Chickasaw, Nez Perce, Eastern Shoshone/Northern Arapaho, Hopi, San Carlos Apache and Euro-American—we use a framework of hope to counter damaging assumptions of homogeneity of Indigenous communities while also searching for common themes to advance an agenda of decolonization across positionalities. Understanding that Indigenous sovereignties are built on “contingency with the beliefs, and understandings of the past” (Grande 250), we interrupt settler-colonial narratives which portray Indigenous languages and cultures as deficient and vanishing. Further, through narratives, we explore how disciplines such as linguistics, anthropology, education, and cultural studies can be interwoven to highlight experiences of identity reconciliation, spirituality through language revitalization, and storytelling as narrative reclamation. A critical culturally sustaining/revitalizing pedagogy unifies the narratives and provides a framework for attending to “asymmetrical power relations and legacies of colonization” (McCarty and Lee 8). In this way, Indigenous narratives of persistence and optimism find relevance in the global and local here and now while emphasizing the relevancy of hope as a rooted practice of relationality in Indigenous language and cultural education. Sharing narratives of hope acknowledges the experience of colonization, while privileging the hope in Indigenous knowledge as a return to the community and generator of new narratives.

description: This paper illustrates the compilation of an engineering geological map based on structural architecture and weathering grade of crystalline rocks occurring in the central-western portions of the Mucone River basin (Sila Massif, Calabria, Italy). The map, drawn at 1:10,000 scale and covering an area of about 100 km2, was compiled by combining new geological and structural data with the results of a weathering-grade field survey. Five weathering classes, each characterized by comparable mechanical behaviour, have been mapped, from the class VI (residual and colluvial soils) to class II (slightly weathered rock). Both qualitative and semi-quantitative criteria (e.g. rock colour, discolouration processes, samples broken by hand and hammer, sound of the rock when it is struck by a geological hammer, Schmidt Hammer tests) were used to distinguish and map weathering-grade classes at outcrop scale. The thematic map presented in this paper aims to provide a useful tool for land planning policy, for the evaluation of geological and geotechnical hazard and for environmental and engineering perspectives of land use.

description: This purpose of this report is to indicate options available for the development of a technical infrastructure to support research data management (RDM) at the University of Sheffield. RDM, its situation within academic research and recent drivers towards change are defined. The processes involved in RDM and the elements of the supporting technical infrastructure are examined. The local context, of RDM technical infrastructure at the University of Sheffield and collaborating institutions, is explored. The range of technical infrastructure components available and evaluations of these components are reviewed. Instances of fully-functioning RDM technical infrastructure and many of the recent research projects that developed and piloted RDM technical infrastructure components are briefly described. Finally, recommendations for suitable technical infrastructure components are proposed.
Gerald Vizenor's Transnational Aesthetics in Blue Ravens
Creators: name: Jobin, Danne
Publisher: name: Transmotion
Year: 2019

description: In Blue Ravens, Gerald Vizenor employs his familiar trickster trope to expand Anishinaabe Indigenous networks to overseas territories in ways that affirm and reinvent existing connections between Indigenous peoples. More than any of the author's previous work, the novel deploys a transnational aesthetic which playfully explores potential avenues for Native⁠ sovereignty: a space of self-determination opened up by artistic production that juxtaposes an Anishinaabe sensibility onto French war scenes and the urban environment of Paris, thus imprinting Native presence onto the land. It enables like-minded individuals to find refuge and create a new order in which Native voices are heard and artistic influence is mutual as Indigenous artists participate in the thriving cultural scene of interwar France. Indeed, Vizenor's fiction explores mobile forms of citizenship, which do not attempt to regulate subjects but allow a celebration of communal as well as individual identities. The novel showcases a Native relationship to space transformed by Indigenous art into inventive, transnational forms of aesthetic citizenship. It also outlines dynamic maps of transnational networks that nevertheless retain their Indigenous, tribal-specific focus even as they open up the field for new exchanges with global spaces. The focus on Anishinaabe art and writing demonstrates that tribal national specificities, when entering transnational space, can adapt and evolve without compromising their integrity. As this article will show, instead of breaking its ties to White Earth, the protagonists' art transposes Anishinaabe aesthetics onto Parisian locales, thus exploring new forms of Indigenous sovereignty that span beyond political borders.

Indigenous Activism, Community Sustainability, and the Constraints of CANZUS Settler-Colonial Nationhood.
Creators: name: McKenzie-Jones, Paul R
Publisher: name: Transmotion
Year: 2019

description: In Mohawk Interruptus, Audra Simpson describes the process of settler-colonial nationhood as incomplete because of the continued presence of Indigenous peoples who will “defend what they have left” and “persist, robustly.” Within that framework, this paper will look at how Indigenous environmental and sustainability activism in the Anglo-settler CANZUS states restricts and impedes the processes of absolute settler-nationhood. Using four case studies to provide an analytical focal point, I will interrogate the overtly paramilitary state-sanctioned response of North Dakota to the #NoDAPL Standing Rock Sioux and allied water protectors; and comparative state responses and violence to the recent Maori protests against TPPA in Aotearoa; the Nunatsiavut/Inuit Make Muskrat Right Again campaign in Canada; and the wave of Invasion Day protests in Australia. I argue that while these state responses sustain and emblemize the power and dominance of settler-colonial nationhood, they also also prove Simpson’s argument that continued Indigenous defense undermines and corrupts the absolutism of settler-colonial nationhood. Each instance of forced settler nation interaction with Indigenous community resistance and persistence, and every state engagement with the issues of unceded land and treaty rights, demands an acknowledgement from these states that the settler-colonial process is still a work in progress. The final aspect of the paper will ask whether these acknowledgment that the settler-colonialism process is a work in progress, and the choice of state violence as a response to these acknowledgements. create enough spaces to terminally undermine this process, and thus enable the re-interpretation and affirmation of Indigeneity as equal to, rather than underneath, these settler-colonial CANZUS nation states.

Transnational Narratives of Conflict and Empire, the Literary Art of Survivance in the Fiction of Gerald Vizenor
Creators: name: Stratton, Billy J.
Publisher: name: Transmotion
Year: 2019

description: Among Native American writers and scholars, none have been more internationally engaged than Gerald Vizenor. From his his earliest works of haiku poetry, Two Wings the Butterfly (1962), Seventeen Chirps (1964), and Empty Swings (1967), to the publication of novels such as Griever: An American Monkey King in China (1990), The Heirs of Columbus (1991), Hiroshima Bugi (2010), and Blue Ravens (2016), Vizenor has sought give his characters a prominent transnational presence. In Blue Ravens, the first of a trilogy of novels addressing the experiences of Anishinaabe soldiers, including some of Vizenor’s actual relatives, he gives narrative substance to Jodi Bryd’s notion of the “transit” of colonial violence through what his narrator terms the European wars of the “empire demon more sinister than the ice monster” (109). In Vizenor’s body of work, this is not not just an intervention into a burgeoning area of critical concern, but perhaps, the culmination of a broader socio-historical critique that runs throughout much of his work. This article addresses Vizenor's attention to historical moments through his fiction that overturn colonial knowledge and posit a new understanding of transnationalism. These include the arrival of Christopher Columbus and the extreme violence of Spanish colonialism as documented by figures such as Las Casas and Bernal Diaz alike, through the abduction of Pocahontas and her death and burial in England that threaten to make her into a perpetual captive, to life “in the remains of the first nuclear war” at Hiroshima, Japan as engaged through the experiences of the crossblood character, Ronin Ainoko Browne (1), and finally to the experiences of two Anishinaabe brothers from the White Earth Reservation, Basile and Aloyisius Beaulieu, in World War I, and after as expatriates living in Paris to escape their position as “political prisoners by the federal government in a civil war” (217). Taken together, these narratives and the characters that populate them, provide a sustained engagement with the multivalent sources, impacts, and legacy of colonization and empire-building through the tease of Vizenor’s biting humor, irony, and practice of trickster hermeneutics.

description: In this paper, we present a geological structural map (1:100,000 scale, ∼2300 km2 surface area) of the Variscan basement of northern Sardinia. The map integrates field structural analysis, extensive gamma-ray spectrometry, and high-resolution ELA-ICP-MS U/Th-Pb zircon and monazite dating. A set of 10 samples of granitic rocks collected from different plutons were characterized for their crystallization age. This provided an accurate timing of magmatic events related to the development of the Corsica-Sardinia Batholith. The structural map, complemented with geochronological results represents a benchmark for future studies on Variscan geodynamics.
Red Paint: Transnational Movements of Deconstructing, Decolonizing, and Defacing Colonial Structures
Creators: name: Garsha, Jeremiah
Publisher: name: Transmotion
Year: 2019

description: This article examines the symbolic nature of using red paint on established colonial structures with transnational connections. When used by indigenous people on structures installed by or deemed to represent colonial powers, it becomes a shared act of reclamation and connects to a deeper connected history, subverting both the structure and the narrative it produces in its defacement. Deconstructing these colonial “relics” with the use of red paint repurposes them as decolonizing instruments. In this article, three case studies are employed to follow the evolving use of red paint on colonial structures and how this illustrates an attempt to create transnational-indigenous decolonizing practices. I begin with an exploration on the occupation of Alcatraz. The transnational connection is picked up when red paint is poured onto colonial monuments and used to inscribe messages around these structures of memory, explored in Tasmania and Namibia. I argue that red paint stands in as a practice of continued decolonizing, and an attempt to interrupt the colonial enshrinements in the nationalized narratives.

description: A new potentiometric sensor for the rapid determination of Hg2+ based on modified carbon paste electrode consisting of room temperature ionic liquid, 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMIM-PF6), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), alumina nanoparticles and a synthetic macrocyclic diamide ‘7,10,13-triaza-1-thia-4,16-dioxa-6,14-dioxo-2,3;17,18-dinaphtho-cyclooctadecane’ as an efficient ionophore was constructed. Prepared composite is an ideal paste because it has low drift of potential, high selectivity and fast response time (10 s), which leads to a more stable potential signal. The morphology and properties of electrodes surface were characterised by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. A linear dynamic range of 2.01–2.01 × 107 µg L−1 with detection limit of 1.40 µg L−1 Hg2+ was obtained at pH range of 2.5 to 4.5. The prepared modified electrode shows several advantages such as simple preparation method, high stability of the composite paste, high sensitivity, long-term life time (at least 13 weeks) and remarkable potentiometric reproducibility. The modified electrode was successfully applied for the accurate determination of trace amounts of Hg 2+ in environmental samples.

title: Reading normalised knowledge production from a feminist perspective: A case study
Creators: name: Fahlgren, Siv
name: Johansson, Anders
Publisher: name: IARTEM e-journal
Year: 2010

description: This article presents a feminist reading of the introductory part of a Swedish university textbook from the field of social work. We show how a textbook like this, whose aim is to represent the “normal” state of a discipline, is conditioned by discursive circumstances beyond the control of individual authors, such as the normalisation of what is seen as central and what is seen as less important within the discipline, and how these circumstances reproduce patterns that still challenge feminist standpoints. Although pluralism and tolerance are the explicit aims of the editors, a seemingly neutral narrator voice, and the consequent way of presenting different research methods and theories as perspectives open for choice, come to hide existing hierarchies of power within the discipline. Pluralism and discrimination can thus actually coexist.

title: With Gender Awareness: Improving the reading of gender in educational texts and illustrations
Creators: name: Knudsen, Susanne V.
Publisher: name: IARTEM e-journal
Year: 2010

description: The article gives examples from analyses of textbooks and computer games, observations in 8th grade in a Norwegian school and interviews with some students. The theoretical inspiration comes from gender research on “doing gender”, and gender is studied in constant interchange and negotiation. The textbooks confirm traditional gender and equality of the genders. However, with gender awareness the texts, tasks and illustrations in the textbooks open for exploring femininities and masculinities in plurality. The observations of the students work and interviews with the students working with computer games pointed towards other constructions of femininities and masculinities than the constructions in the computer games. The different constructions of femininities and masculinities are examples of the transformation from computer games published for use in spare time to their representations in a school textbook.

description: Camptothecin, a potent anti-cancer alkaloid originally derived from Camptotheca acuminata, can also be efficiently extracted from the bark of Mappia nimmoniana (J. Graham) Byng & Stull using an innovative green chemistry method, uses an ionic liquid that dissolves cellulose. Camptothecin is the starting material for the commercial semi-synthesis of anticancer drugs topotecan and irinotecan. The described method is helpful for the commercial production of camptothecin. In this study, the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([bmim]Cl) not only enhances the extraction efficiency of camptothecin from the plant bark but also reduces the dependence on harmful organic solvents, thus promoting a sustainable process. Without chromatography, the product is enriched to > 85% purity. Furthermore, optimised conditions with [bmim]Cl at 50 mg/mL for 16 h provided comparable efficiency to 500 mg/mL for 2 h or 1 g/mL for 30 min, demonstrating the potential for scalable, cost-effective production. This approach offers a promising alternative for the large-scale industrial production of camptothecin.

description: Diane Glancy titles her book with the exceptional title The Keyboard Letters QWERTYUIOPASDFGHJKLZXCVBNM. This innovative collection includes poems, notes, short prose (preface and backmatter are essential to the whole), allusions to paintings, and texts. The sum is a cartographer’s manual to the 21st century. Pieces calibrate backroads of Texas, their trajectory, with stopover points at the New Bedford Whaling Museum to see exhibits of the Pequod (or did Melville mean Pequot?) and the Mideast country of Jordan. Christopher Columbus’s ship is a moving point/target. In the acknowledgements, Glancy writes about some of her influences: “A visit to the Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida. A list of the most important discoveries of the world. A PBS television program on mathematics. A stormy day in North Texas. . .” (66). These are very personal to her experience, so the book has a journal-like quality; this is a log of her physical and imaginative explorations.

title: Motivation to learn about teaching and learning materials: and their use during teacher education in Australia
Creators: name: Horsley, Mike
Publisher: name: IARTEM e-journal
Year: 2010

description: Most research on teacher education has not considered the situated learning contexts and identities of pre-service teachers as they learn in different school and university settings in Australia. Especially problematic are the conflicting discourses that shape learning in these varied contexts. This paper explores aspects of motivation about the learning of teaching practices and pedagogy in the different learning environments of teacher education and school practicum; specifically the development of pedagogy and teaching practices around the use of textbooks and teaching and learning materials and the area of providing resources for student learning by teachers. Using Nolen’s concept of motivational filters that student teachers develop to select and reject teaching practices, the paper undertakes a qualitative research project to explore such filters in the area of developing pedagogy in the use of teaching and learning materials. The research presented in this paper demonstrates that the experiences student teachers are being provided with in relation to pedagogies related to teaching and learning materials are unstructured, fragmented and contested. The motivation to learn about teaching and learning materials and their role in learning and development is dependent on the utility filters developed in school fieldwork and reflects the socio-cultural context of the school. The critical questions for teacher educators is how do new and developing teachers learn how to mediate teaching and learning materials for their students, and in what form and learning context will this mediation learning take place.

description: SMC (structural maintenance of chromosomes) complexes - which include condensin, cohesin and the SMC5-SMC6 complex - are major components of chromosomes in all living organisms, from bacteria to humans. These ring-shaped protein machines, which are powered by ATP hydrolysis, topologically encircle DNA. With their ability to hold more than one strand of DNA together, SMC complexes control a plethora of chromosomal activities. Notable among these are chromosome condensation and sister chromatid cohesion. Moreover, SMC complexes have an important role in DNA repair. Recent mechanistic insight into the function and regulation of these universal chromosomal machines enables us to propose molecular models of chromosome structure, dynamics and function, illuminating one of the fundamental entities in biology.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.

description: Over the last five years several European countries have experienced a rapid development of photovoltaic power plants. In the Czech Republic more than 20,000 new photovoltaic power plants have been built with the total nominal power capacity of 2100 MWp. The spatial distribution of these installations is very uneven. Built-up areas are dominated by a large number of small installations while large installations (over 1 MWp) are usually located in agricultural areas. To express a spatial distribution of these installations we have used a synthetic approach combining the spatial density of installations with the power plant capacities. The resulting map in the scale of 1:750,000 shows a continuous distribution of the installed power capacity.

description: Jamesbondia is formally proposed here as a new subgenus of Alternanthera, a large Neotropical genus, with four species [A. costaricensis Kuntze, A. geniculata Urb., A. olivacea Urb., and A. serpyllifolia (Poir.) Urb.], mostly found in Central America and the Caribbean Islands. In a recent phylogeny using ITS, trnL-F, and rpl16 data and samples of three of the four species listed above, an unpublished genus Jamesbondia was embedded within Alternanthera. The other three species (not A. costaricensis) clustered in a clade with 97% JK support. Here to determine the position of A. costaricensis within Alternanthera and taxonomically revise the species in subg. Jamesbondia, we analyzed ITS, trnL-F, and rpl16 data from GenBank accessions for 31 species and our new molecular data for A. costaricensis to reconstruct a phylogenetic tree confirming that A. costaricensis belongs to the Jamesbondia clade (88-97% JK; 0.88-1.0 PP). Alternanthera costaricensis, Telanthera olivacea Urb., and Achyranthes serpyllifolia Poir. were lectotypified, and we document the distribution of A. costaricensis in Mexico for the first time. Insight from nomenclatural notes, taxonomic descriptions, morphological illustrations, distribution, and a key for species of Jamesbondia provided here will be used to propose a new subgeneric classification of Alternanthera.

description: The managers of crime laboratories face significant hurdles when preparing new hires to become productive members of the laboratory. New hires require six months of training/experience in the crime laboratory before becoming a productive member of the Biology (DNA) section. To address this deficiency in forensic DNA education, a novel forensic education curriculum was developed and tested for three consecutive years in the forensic science program at Fayetteville State University, Fayetteville, NC. The curriculum used a CTS proficiency kit, which is the same kit used to validate the proficiency of forensic scientists in crime laboratories in the US. A cost benefit analysis suggests that training students in a classroom instead of in a crime laboratory provides both direct savings to the laboratory and significant societal savings as more DNA profiles are entered into the database. The societal benefit from the combined reduction in the amount of training in a crime laboratory and increasing the number of DNA database profiles entered into a database suggests a societal saving of $8.28 million for each of these months of reduced training.

description: In the present paper, the performance of an innovative thermal insulation rigid board is evaluated in terms of fire behaviour and fungal resistance. The board is based on vegetal pith and a natural gum (corn pith and sodium alginate) and it is completely compostable. This new composite was developed in previous work. Here boric acid and aluminium hydroxide are used as fire retardants and montan wax and acetic acid and lactic acid are used as water repellent and fungicides respectively. Interactions between these different treatments is investigated. Both flaming and smouldering combustion processes of the different formulations are evaluated by small-scale techniques which include pyrolysis microcalorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. A mediumscale device is also designed in order to study the impact of the different additives to the smouldering kinetics. Fire behaviour tests show that good improvement is obtained, both in flaming and smouldering combustion when boric acid is added. Although smoldering is not avoided in any case, the addition of 8% of boric acid or aluminium hydroxide slows down the speed of combustion propagation. The effect of the different additives on the moisture content and mould growth at 97% RH and 27ºC is analysed. Under such severe conditions none of the additives is able to prevent mould growth, with the exception of boric acid. None or marginal mould growth was observed on samples containing 8% of boric acid although moisture content was higher than the other cases.

description: Over the last five years several European countries have experienced a rapid development of photovoltaic power plants. In the Czech Republic more than 20,000 new photovoltaic power plants have been built with the total nominal power capacity of 2100 MWp. The spatial distribution of these installations is very uneven. Built-up areas are dominated by a large number of small installations while large installations (over 1 MWp) are usually located in agricultural areas. To express a spatial distribution of these installations we have used a synthetic approach combining the spatial density of installations with the power plant capacities. The resulting map in the scale of 1:750,000 shows a continuous distribution of the installed power capacity.

description: Mitigating heat is a vital ecosystem service of trees, particularly with climate change. Land surface temperature measures captured at a single time of day (in the morning) dominate the urban heat island literature. Less is known about how local tree canopy and impervious surface regulate air temperature throughout the day, and/or across many days with varied weather conditions, including cloud cover. We use bike-mounted air temperature sensors throughout the day in New Haven, Connecticut, USA, from 2019 to 2021 and generalized additive mixed models across 156 rides to estimate the daily variation in cooling benefits associated with tree canopy cover, and warming from impervious surface cover in 90 m buffers surrounding bike observations. Cooling is inferred by subtracting the bicycle-observed temperature from a reference station. The cooling benefits from tree canopy cover were strongest in the midday (11:00–14:00, −1.62 °C), afternoon (14:00–17:00, −1.19 °C), and morning (8:00–11:00, −1.15 °C) on clear days. The cooling effect was comparatively smaller on cloudy mornings −0.92 °C and afternoons −0.51 °C. Warming from impervious surfaces was most pronounced in the evening (17:00–20:00, 1.11 °C) irrespective of clouds, and during cloudy nights (20:00–23:00) and cloudy mornings 1.03 °C 95 % CI [1.03, 1.04]. Among the hottest observed days (top 25th percentile of reference station daily maxima), tree canopy was associated with lower temperatures on clear afternoons −1.78 °C [-1.78, −1.78], cloudy midday −1.17 °C [-1.19, −1.15], clear midday −1.12 °C [-1.12, −1.11]. We add a broader spectrum of weather conditions by explicitly including clouds, and greater temporal resolution by measuring throughout the day to bike-based urban heat research. Future mobile sampling campaigns may broaden the spatial extent with more environmental variation, representing an opportunity for public science and engagement.
Native Land Talk: Indigenous and Arrivant Rights Theories (Yael Ben-zvi)

description: Yael Ben-zvi, Native Land Talk: Indigenous and Arrivant Rights Theories. Dartmouth UP, 2018. 276 pp. ISBN: 9781512601466. www.upne.cpm In Native Land Talk: Indigenous and Arrivant Rights Theories, Yael Ben-zvi employs EuroAmerican human rights theories to examine and compare the distinctive resistances of African and indigenous Americans to colonization. Delving into a rich array of resources—petitions, letters, newspaper articles, and speeches, among others--to examine EuroAmerican rights claims, Ben-zvi inventively applies these theoretical histories to the petitions and appeals for freedom and land made by indigenous and African American peoples in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries (roughly 1760-1840). The author closely analyzes aspects of settler rights claims and indigenous and African American histories of resistance (or, as she terms them, “unsettlement projects”) that have received little scholarly attention, aligning the resistance of the latter communities with settler dehumanization and violence.

The value of perseverance: Using Dakota culture to teach mathematics

description: Cultural appropriation is a legitimate concern of indigenous people. In the United States, non-natives have copied native culture in everything from Native American themed parties to celebrities in costume to lingerie ads. The backlash from indigenous communities to this mimicry is understandable. Video games offer a more functional application of Native American culture, specifically, Dakota culture. While at first glance, traditional Dakota values and educational video games may be an unexpected combination, there is much more to being a Dakota than regalia, pow-wows and sweat lodges. Other cultures that wish to copy the Dakota are advised to copy these values – honesty, courage, generosity and perseverance. Both the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics and the Common Core standards emphasize the importance of perseverance in mathematics. The very first standard of mathematical practice is “Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them”. Spirit Lake: The Game is an example of how the value of perseverance in the context of traditional Native American culture can be applied in contemporary society. Efficacy of the game in increasing mathematics achievement was tested with a sample of fourth- and fifth-grade students from two reservation schools. Students playing the game showed significantly greater improvement in mathematics achievement from pre- to post-test.
