This guide was originally built in 2013 by Rebekah Bédard, an OISE Library practicum student, in collaboration with the Deepening Knowledge Project.
On-Core is a collection of audiovisual materials (largely films and videos) that correspond to specific strands of the Ontario Core Curriculum. Within this package are a significant collection of video materials on Indigenous topics and films by Indigenous peoples. Here you will find specific films on Indigenous issues mapped directly to curriculum expectations and grade level.
Click on the logo below to connect to On-Core (Please note that this resource is available to OISE and UofT students only):
To find video and audio resouces that correspond to the topic area, curriculum subject, or grade level, please see the Deepening Knowledge Project website.
Virtual and Augmented Reality resources are an especially rich area for Indigenous creators to explore Indigenous futures, languages and environments. Below are a list of Indigenous centric VR/AR Materials. For a full guide on using Virtual Reality in Classrooms, please consult our Guide. For use of the Blitzwolf VR Glasses (CR 371.33468 B6497) available through the library, please find them in the Curriculum Resources Collection on the Third Floor of the Library.
Search the same way you would search for books, but in the left-hand column of the results screen, select the format “Videos & DVDs” or “Audio.”
After that, you can select a more specific format (e.g., “Videocassette” or “DVD”).
