In this space, you can contribute any thoughts or questions that arise from the reading or discussion of the Preface, Acknowledgments, or first chapter, The Journey Begins, of Indigenous Storywork by Jo-ann Archibald.

Dear participants,

Some guidelines to keep in mind while posting include the following:

• be respectful, one of the storywork principles Jo-ann Archibald mentions on page 2 of Indigenous Storywork
• be mindful as a writer and reader that online posts can be challenging to understand due to the lack of visual and verbal tone cues, so seek and offer clarification if needed in the spirit of open-minded dialogue and mutual learning
• when you are engaging with a particular passage from the text, it is helpful to include a page number so that others can join in the discussion
• signing your post with your preferred name can help others to respond and keep us mindful of the personhood behind each posting

More contributions to these guidelines would be very welcome!

Looking forward to learning together with you all!

 

Welcome to the online discussion board for the Langara Book Club’s reading of Indigenous Storywork by Jo-ann Archibald!

We are piloting this additional space for discussion to inform whether future Book Club, community of practice and discussion groups could be further enriched with this type of forum.

Please use this online platform to share reflections and to dialogue with members of the Book Club in between sessions. We encourage you to use this space to further discuss ideas pertaining to the chapters read during Book Club sessions, and additional resources related to the reading.

The forum will be lightly moderated.

Thanks!
