Author Description

<p>This volume explores the importance of inter-generational oral culture and stories that transcend time, space, and boundaries transmitted historically from one generation to the next through proverbs, idioms, and folklore tales in different geographical and spatial contexts.<b> </b>These important stories and their embedded life lessons are introduced, explained, and supplemented with pre and post educational activities <b>and</b> lesson plans to be used as learning resources. The centering of <b>o</b>rality as a tool <b>and medium</b> for educating the future generation is a reclamation and reaffirmation of Indigeneity, Indigenous knowledges. <b>and non-hegemonic approaches to support students in a socio-culturally sustaining manner. </b>Through this understanding, this book explores the interconnectedness between culture, traditions, language, and way of life through oral storytelling, sharing, and listening. </p><br>
