Hello, my name is Vicki Bouvier, I am Michif. My long ago relatives come from the Red River and Boggy Creek, Manitba but I am from and live in Calgary.
I am an Associate Professor of Indigenous Studies. I focus my teaching and scholarship on Métis Peoplehood and experience as well as Indigenous oral systems as pedagogy and assessments and how to best centre those philosophies and practices in post-secondary teaching and learning.
