    Indigenous Ways of Learning - Learning Log #1: January 12th, 2023

    By: Spencer Gerth

    1. Reflect on what you have learned today.

    Today I learned about the topic of cultural competency which is the ability to relate to

    and understand people of different cultures from oneself. In addition, I learned about the four

    main components of cultural competence which include awareness, attitude, knowledge, and

    skills. With these components in mind, I was able to listen to my fellow classmates when

    discussing different cultures, traditions, celebrations, baby ceremonies, and ethnic meals. Under

    traditions, we discussed different practices such as the celebration of Christmas and Easter, as

    well as Chinese New Year. I also learned that although I myself have not experienced the arrival

    of new life, my peers celebrate this event in different ways such as Baptism, baby showers, and

    more. Among most of the practices that my peers and I discussed, family and social gatherings

    seem to be the highlight and centre of importance. Lastly, I learned about the different definitions

    of groups of Indigenous peoples including Aboriginal, First Nations, Métis, and Inuit people.

    With this knowledge, I hope to become a better person, student, ally and help me in my future

    career opportunities.
