Abstract/Summary: 

In this article, McGregor echoes what the Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (ITK) advocated for in 2011: more Inuit and Northern peoples educational research needs to be done in order to identify, discuss and disseminate “best practice” for those communities and to meet the demands of the 2008 Nunavut Education Act.  Several recommendations are considered, including an examination of how research methodologies have and should be undertaken in order for the diversity of the Inuit and Northern peoples experience to be considered, and for their education to be truly “Northern-centered.”
