Feedback from those in attendance was very positive and they recommended that we meet on a yearly basis and invite other home economics educators to join us. Both Linda and I liked the suggestion and began to formulate plans for the next meeting. We decided on the symposium format because we believed that if we were to meet again that we needed some guiding questions for the talks and that we should provide an opportunity for others by making available proceedings after the Symposium. We decided that we should invite to our next meeting home economics educators from the universities, the ministries of education, school system supervisors, and presidents of home economics councils of teachers associations. While discussing our plans, we decided that in addition to British Columbia and Alberta, perhaps Manitoba and Saskatchewan would like to join us, and then, we got the idea that if we held the Symposium in Manitoba we could invite all the people we had targeted from every province. Linda then contacted Joyce McMartin in Winnipeg to see what she thought of our plan and to see if she would be willing to assist by looking after the arrangements for the meeting rooms, hotel, and food. Joyce agreed and the first Canadian Symposium: Issues and Directions for Home Economics/Family Studies Education was held in March, 1991 in Winnipeg with approximately 40 home economists in attendance. Several beliefs guided this symposium from the beginning: 1) that all in positions of leadership, including teachers, should be invited to attend; 2) that most attending will also present so the symposium will consist of talking and listening to each other, not outside experts; 3) that the cost of attending and registration be kept minimal by seeking sponsors for the Symposium and using medium priced accommodation; 4) while the numbers of those in attendance may be low, proceedings should be published soon after the Symposium and made available to all for discussion; 5) that action planning to address issues be part of the Symposium so there is some follow through from the discussions.

Proceedings of the Canadian Symposium XIII: Issues and Directions in Home Economics / Family Studies / Human Ecology Education, Winnipeg, MB, February 27-28 and March 1, 2015 6 Summing Up Canadian Symposium XIII Mary Gale Smith Mary Leah de Zwart Winnipeg, Manitoba February 27-28 and March 1, 2015 This marks the fourth time that Winnipeg has hosted the Canadian Symposium on Home Economics/Family Studies/Human Ecology Education. Traditionally the Symposium has been held in the west, then the center, then the east, back to the center and so on, to allow for greater participation in the dialogue on Home Economics Education and to share current research across the country. Ontario has agreed to host Symposium XIV and we anticipate that the sharing, collaboration, and collegiality will continue. Symposium XIII welcomed national participants from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Ontario, and British Columbia and international participants from Japan, Egypt, and the United States. Research papers were presented on a wide range of topics that identified current issues and directions in Home Economics Education. Group discussions resulted in “tweets” that were posted on Twitter. Figure 1 sums up the main themes of this symposium. Issues Directions Tweets • Food Literacy • Food is like • Agricultural money. It’s neither Literacy good nor bad.

Department of The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) Abstract My study examines white cultural practices in home economics education in British Columbia between 1913 and 1936 through two home economics manuals developed in the province for the express purpose of educating young women. My methodology is informed by postcolonial constructs, social feminism, and white studies. My experiences as a classroom teacher and as a volunteer teacher in Malawi are interwoven with my findings. I use the metaphor of white sauce, a recipe frequently made in traditional classrooms, in describing the current close alignment of home economics with white culture.

  • Alice Ravenhill and the Society for the Furtherance of British Columbia Indian Arts and Crafts
    “A Nation of Artists”: Alice Ravenhill and the Society for the Furtherance of British Columbia Indian Arts and Crafts LiLynn Wan* n 1996, Bill Reid sold a bronze sculpture to the Vancouver International Airport Authority for $3 million, making him the highest-paid Canadian artist to that date. An image of this sculpture, The Spirit of Haida Gwaii, adorned the Canadian twenty- I 2004 2012 dollar bill from until , and the original casting of the sculpture stands in front of the Canadian Embassy in Washington, DC. Reid’s journey to this position as a Haida artist and Canadian icon provides some insight into the often contradictory role of indigenous imagery in visual representations of Canadian culture and identity. While Reid’s work was certainly inspired by his ancestral ties, he learned technique in a jewellery-making course at the Ryerson Institute of Technology in Toronto, and he learned the fundamentals of Northwest Coast design from two books, in particular. One of these books is the American museum director Robert Bruce Inverarity’s Art of the Northwest Coast Indians, which was published in 1950; the other is Alice Ravenhill’s A Corner Stone of Canadian Culture: An Outline of the Arts and Crafts of 1 the Indian Tribes of British Columbia. * Research for this article was funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. Thanks to Shirley Tillotson and Richard Mackie for invaluable guidance and editorial advice. And to Rebecca Moy-Behre, who taught me arts and crafts – not as an idea but as a way of life.

  • Portrait of a Teacher: Anthony Walsh and the Inkameep Indian Day School, 1932-1942
    Portrait of a Teacher: Anthony Walsh and the Inkameep Indian Day School, 1932-1942 By Lisa-Marie Smith B.A., Carleton University, 1993 M.C.S., Regent College, 1998 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS In the Department of Educational Psychology and Leadership Studies @Lisa-MarieSmith, 2004 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. Co-Supervisors: Dr. Yvonne Martin-Newcombe and Dr. Thomas Fleming ABSTRACT As part of the federal government's assimilationist policies during the 1930'~~ Canada's residential schools aimed to erase Indian culture. Another initiative existed for the education of native children: the day school. Located on the reservations, day schools shared more in common with the rural schools of the Province. From 1932-1942, in British Columbia's Okanagan valley, Anthony Walsh taught the children of Inkameep Day School. The focus of this thesis is on Walsh's educational career; his endeavour to integrate indigenous knowledge into his lessons, alongside the provincial curriculum; his promotion of native culture in the classroom; and his efforts to instill pride in his students' native heritage. This paper was conducted using conventional historical methods, and draws on archival sources. TABLE OF CONTENTS Title Page ...................................... i ..

  • Imperialism and Motherhood by Anna Davin
    Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/hwj/article/5/1/9/576550 by guest on 27 September 2021 Imperialism and Motherhood by Anna Davin POPULATION AND POWER Around the beginning of this century infant life and child health took on a new importance in public discussion, reinforced by emphasis on the value of a healthy and numerous population as a national resource. During the 19th century most political economists had tended to believe with Thomas Malthus that excessive population was dangerous, leading to the exhaustion of resources, and consequently to war, epidemic disease, and other natural checks on growth. This argument was strengthened by 10 History Workshop Darwinist notions of the struggle for existence as an essential part of the survival of the race.[l] In the last decades of the century it was used both by the radical neo- Malthusians, who recommended contraception as an artificial check on population and therefore a preventive of poverty (which they attributed to over-population, arguing for instance that wages were kept down by the competition for employ- ment); and also by the advocates of what was coming to be known as eugenics, who wanted a selective limitation of population growth, to prevent the 'deterioration of the race' and decline as an imperial nation through the proliferation of those they regarded as 'unfit' (to breed).[2] There was however another view, early expressed Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/hwj/article/5/1/9/576550 by guest on 27 September 2021 by Charles Kingsley (in 1858), that over-population was impossible 'in a country that has the greatest colonial empire that the world has ever seen*.
