There are many ways to learn about science!
Casey Eagle Speaker, Kainai Elder
Science is traditionally taught and learned from a Western worldview, but there are many ways of knowing and connecting through knowledge with science. Science becomes more relevant and relatable when our minds and hearts are open to the what of knowing from the land, sky and spirit.
This short dome film is an adaptation of an original Siksikaitsitapi story gifted to the science centre by the late Dan Weasel Moccasin. His family, including Pete Weasel Moccasin, helped to create a limited-edition book of these original Blackfoot stories. The stories originated in the Blackfoot language and were told for hundreds of years by the Niitsitapi. Directed and written by Tito Gomez.

The four parts represent the four directions, four sacred medicines, four stages of life, four ways of being, four winds and many more. Each of these four parts shape the TELUS Spark Science Centre Indigenous Action Plan.
