On their own initiative, the Sami schools in Johkamohkki/Jokkmokkand Jiellevárri/Gällivare contacted the researchers requesting them tocollaborate and the current headmasters Gudrun Kuhmunen, Carina Sarriand Kerstin Pittsa Omma requested Gunilla Johansson at the University ofTechnology in Luleå and myself at the Sami University College in Kautokeinoto coordinate a research project aimed at enhancing the Samiperspective within the work of the school. The ”participatory actionresearch model” was the methodology chosen, presupposing thatresearchers and workers cooperate in reviewing and altering existingpractices.Even though Sami political intentions for almost a hundred years hasaimed at enhancing the Sami foundation of the education system, successis still pending in this regard. And although Sami education plans andprograms underlining the demand to promote the Sami perspective inschools have been approved both in the Swedish and Norwegian Samiarea, this achievement has not ensured Sami schools for Sami children.These investigations show that one of the reasons could be that the cultureof the dominant society is in a strong position and as such has a heavyinfluence on the Sami way of thinking and the mentality of Sami tutors.Through decolonisation it should be possible to rectify the influencecaused by colonisation. This ought to be carried out by disclosing theresults of colonisation, evaluating them with new eyes and encouragingcolonized peoples to appreciate own backgrounds. The notion of decolonisationis topical and often applied in indigenous research works and thus isof paramount interest in this type of action research - decolonising themethods of Sami schooling.My part in this research is to monitor the learning of teachers and theprocess of their promotional work and elucidate what happened and how itprogressed. I further adduce reasons for what this kind of renewal ofpractice and decolonizing efforts demand in order to succeed. The researchshould also become an example in encouraging Sami politicians, schoolauthorities, headmasters and teacher groups to initiate similar endeavoursin Sami schools in their own area. My investigations brought to light thestruggle facing teachers in finding a Sami working space; they need both learning, advice and additional time resources. However, with these termsit will be possible to promote Sami content and bring Sami teachingmethods into the schools.A new aspect in this research is that we try to put into concrete terms whatSami cultural and traditional knowledge is, which traditional teachingmethods exist and how one could incorporate these into the pedagogicpractices of the school. In the book, based on tutor’s efforts, presentationsand discussions, I give an account of how they manage to present new andrenewing practices in school situations. The teachers table Sami traditionsas pedagogics, systemise, analyse, revise and adapt them into a newframework. In this fashion we see how Sami teachers learn to transformtheir own culture into being an intrinsic part of the school. We have basedour work on Balto’s theory addressed in her thesis ”Sami traditionalupbringing” which will be put into practice. The practical benefit and thetenability of the theory will be visible in the renewing of practices.The entire research project shows that schools alone do not manage toaccomplish this kind of progress and school authorities, being those whosuggest terminology and frameworks ought to support these developmentefforts. Managerial documents, acts, plans and regulations for Samischools must be controlled by the Sami themselves and the Sami parliamentmust hold the decision making authority. Insufficient knowledge andcompetence on legal aspects, conventions, declarations and systems thatfavour and affirm Sami rights, are considerable obstructions to progress.Sami school leaders and teachers are in need of learning about rights issueswhen they face tasks of defending and arguing in favour of the rights ofSami children and students. Authorities and politicians with decisionmaking power, also, be it Sami or others, are in need of knowledge abouttheir own formal obligations. They should further know what colonisationhas inflicted on the Sami people and what challenges this fact brings forth.Results of this research certainly include theoretical investigations on Samiinherited habits and values with regard to knowledge and upbringingsystems are attached and the invisible aspects herein as well. The challengestill remains to accomplish a Sami knowledge and value basis and to buildup a Sami foundation for a Sami school system. |
