You can view the new "Art of the American Indian Frontier" collection
created by Karen DeLeary on the GLRAIN home page at:
URL:http://www.glrain.net/glrain/
This is a collaborative project between: CICNet and the Great Lakes Regional
American Indian Network (GLRAIN); David Penny and the Detroit Institute of
Arts; The New Press, NY; and the University of Washington Press, WA.
This is the first part of a series to produce Native cultural, historical,
and language materials on the Internet, supported by CICNet and the National
Science Foundation. This project is intended to stimulate the development
of culturally (sensitive & correct) relevant teaching/educational materials
for Native k-12, Native community colleges, Native Studies, Native
communities, and the general population of the World Wide Web.
Other collaborative projects being developed include:
An Ojibwe (6,000 word) Dictionary, University of Minnesota Press
An Ojibwe (interactive 200 word) Teaching Dictionary, Grand Traverse Band
Native American Journals, University of Minnesota Press
The Black Hawk collection, Augustana College Library
The Native American Dance Series, a collection of photographs and interviews
with Native elders, dancers and singers from different regions of North America.
I'll keep you posted on other exciting Native Internet projects.
