• Do students see themselves and elements of their lives in the visuals that I provide? 

• Do students see themselves and elements of their lives in the example problems or narratives that are told?

• Is what my students are learning based on a 'big idea' that goes beyond my classroom?

Native people are often stereotyped as one-dimensional, exotic figures in text books and invisible in contemporary society. Teachers can help native students reinterpret and self-create a contemporary identity without forsaking traditional cultural values, by integrating present-day native stories, choosing visuals and examples that are relatable to students, and emphasizing critique and self-reflection on the part of students. Done correctly, planning and teaching with relevant content increases academic performance as well as self-efficacy and school participation as students take pride in their identity.
