Preserving First Nation oral tradition (story telling) is a fundamental goal for leaders and educators. Many websites that I've encountered or curriculum discussions I've had refer to the lack of support and overwhelming fear of losing the skill of oral tradition. The Online Learning Center in Saskatchewan provides training resources and materials to aid teachers on how to design curriculum and deliver learning activities to support the value and practice of traditional story telling.First Nation communities are using technology for the preservation of oral traditions. Our World is a documentary film describing how integrating ICT to create digital stories is helping to preserve First Nation language and culture. Watch the trailer, or purchase the full documentary online at the National Film Board of Canada.
Also, First Nations Films is a website solely dedicated to Aboriginal filmmakers.
