Native Knowledge 360° (NK360°) provides educators and students with new perspectives on Native American history and cultures. Most Americans have only
been exposed to part of the story, as told from a single perspective through the lenses of popular media and textbooks. NK360° provides educational
materials and teacher training that incorporate Native narratives, more comprehensive histories, and accurate information to enlighten and inform teaching
and learning about Native America. NK360° challenges common assumptions about Native peoples—their cultures, their roles in United States and
world history, and their contributions to the arts, sciences, and literature. NK360° offers a view that includes not only the past but also the richness
and vibrancy of Native peoples and cultures today.
90% of all AI/AN students attend regular public schools and about 8% attend schools administered by the Bureau of Indian Affairs
