Teachings: The Power of Orality. 330 $aThis 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. These important stories and their embedded life lessons are introduced, explained, and supplemented with pre and post educational activities and lesson plans to be used as learning resources. The centering of orality as a tool and medium for educating the future generation is a reclamation and reaffirmation of Indigeneity, Indigenous knowledges. and non-hegemonic approaches to support students in a socio-culturally sustaining manner. Through this understanding, this book explores the interconnectedness between culture, traditions, language, and way of life through oral storytelling, sharing, and listening. . 606 $aTeaching 606 $aEducation in literature 606 $aProse literature 606 $aIndigenous peoples$xReligion 606 $aPedagogy 606 $aLiterature and Pedagogy 606 $aLiterary Didactics 606 $aNarrative Text and Prose 606 $aIndigenous Religion 615 0$aTeaching. 615 0$aEducation in literature. 615 0$aProse literature. 615 0$aIndigenous peoples$xReligion. 615 14$aPedagogy. 615 24$aLiterature and Pedagogy. 615 24$aLiterary Didactics. 615 24$aNarrative Text and Prose. 615 24$aIndigenous Religion. 676 $a910.5 676 $a371.33 702 $aEizadirad$b Ardavan 702 $aWane$b Njoki Nathani 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bGW5XE 801 2$bEBLCP 801 2$bYDX 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910678259603321 996 $aThe power of oral culture in education$93373014 997 $aUNINA
