make the four corners of the Navigator's Medicine Wheel. From the University of Southern California libraries, includes major
sources of information including: books on images and stereotypes of Native Americans, dictionaries and encyclopedias,
biographical sources, atlases, bibliographies and guides, cd-roms on Native Americans, statistics, locating journal,
magazine and newspaper articles, directories, dissertations, videos, audio recordings, journal subscriptions held
by USC libraries, resource centers in Southern California. Also includes special topics secton about Native Americans
including: art of Native Americans, literature of Native Americans, Native Americans in politics and government,
Native American religion and mythology, artists' views of Native Americans, and interesting web sites. This article looks from a historical perspective at what impact the implementation
of the American Indian Languages Act might have on Indian education. This study is an exploratory effort to determine current thinking about
learning styles from the perspective of those groups closely associated with American Indian students, i.e., teachers
and administrators of the schools attended by American Indian students. The study assumes that there is a pervasive,
but not clearly defined, understanding by practitioners of learning styles relating to American Indian people.
The purpose of this study was to determine the extent of teacher knowledge about learning styles and to determine
the extent to which this knowledge is applied in classrooms attended by American Indian students. Waterbird Creations (via the First Nations site) is proud to bring to
