“…Assimilation is described due to the fact the condition during which there may be usually an experience of pride and contentment in teacher and student and with each other (Bickmore, 2006;Burgon et al, 2012;Slivka, 2011;Nelson & Christie, 1995). Not many researchers have been carried out on curriculum and assimilation.…”

The present study concentrated on inspecting the relationship of assimilation and contentment of general education teachers (GETs) and special education teachers (SETs) with the implementation of single national curriculum (SNC). The main concern of the present study was to explore the effect of age on assimilation and contentment amidst GETs and SETs. Selfdeveloped research instrument was used to measure the phenomenon of assimilation and contentment. Cronbach alpha value was estimated 0.81 and viewed as adequate for the present research. The sample size was comprised of (N=290) GETs and SETs, males and females. GETs (n=145) and SETs (n=145) picked-out from different cities of Punjab, Pakistan. Pearson Product Moment Correlation and t-test were employed to test the hypotheses. The obtained results indicated a significant positive correlation (r= .81, significant at p 0.01) in assimilation and contentment. Later, the researchers made recommendations at the end.

“…It was only eight years later that Estelle Reel designed a uniform course of study in 1901 that was indicative of Indian policy at the time. Reel attempted to revive basket weaving among Indians as a way to salvage what was considered a dying art and bring much needed income to Native communities; she recommended the same rationale and treatment for weaving, pottery, and beadwork (Slivka, 2011). Reel thought that the guidance of an "intelligent white teacher" (Reel, 1901, p. 57) was needed to make decisions regarding authenticity and the use of modern designs for the market.…”

“…The history of art education has been repeatedly critiqued for lack of inclusion of diverse cultural voices (Acuff, 2013;Acuff, Hirak, & Nangah, 2012;Bey, 2011;Bolin, Blandy, & Congdon, 2000;Slivka, 2011). Early art education historians' primary task was to investigate information and corroborate the actions of prominent people in the field of the past (Daichendt, Funk, Holt, & Kantawala, 2013).…”

Including historical art education curricula for Native American students in art education history has potential for assisting decolonizing efforts and expanding art education historiography with new insights. The 1934 art education curriculum framework titled “Art for the Schools of the Southwest: An Outline for the Public and Indian Schools,” written by Mary-Russell Ferrell Colton, is an example of what the author calls salvage education, the underlying concept of which was to rescue Native American cultures. This is compared to efforts of early art educators Reel and Dunn to ‘save and improve’ Indian art through instruction to Native American students. These ideas are intertwined with the history of suppression of Native American religions. Colton’s curriculum has not been previously examined in the field of art education history. This article continues to decolonize art education historiography through Indigenous reframing, particularly in reference to Native American spirituality.

“…The children were forced to abandon their traditional spiritual practices and beliefs and were converted to Christianity. The curriculum at these boarding schools was designed to enact cultural genocide by suppressing tribal languages and practices, teaching the children English, and training them to fill domestic labor roles in white society (Slivka ). American Indian youth who took these roles were among the first to settle in urban communities.…”

This article explores the interconnected spiritual, religious, and cultural worlds of the majority of American Indian (AI) youth who live in urban areas: their patterns of involvement in religion and Native spirituality and associated well‐being. Latent class analysis of data from 205 AI middle school students identified five distinctive classes using survey measures of religious affiliation, attendance at services, adherence to Christian and traditional spiritual beliefs, Native spirituality, and Native cultural practices. Two classes were Christian groups: one attending Christian churches and following Christian beliefs but uninvolved with Native beliefs, spirituality, or cultural practices; and a nominal Christian group affiliated with but not attending church and unattached to belief systems. Two groups followed Native beliefs and spiritual practices, one affiliated with the Native American Church and another unaffiliated with any church. The fifth, nonreligious group, had no religious affiliation, followed neither Christian nor traditional beliefs, and was uninvolved in Native spirituality and cultural practices. The two groups embracing AI spirituality reported better academic performance, more reservation contact, higher AI enculturation, and stronger bicultural orientations.
