Hello!
My name is Deko Shahow, one of the graduates at York university who left her home due to the political unrest that lead to clan conflicts and confrontations in the Horn of Africa. I grew as a refugee in Dadaab, which is home to thousands of people who fleed from different native countries. Life is never easy growing up in a refugee camp. It's the life of poverty, limited to education and the opportunity to be enrolled in the class were very few during my early age but with the hard work of my parents who supported me, I was lucky enough to be among the few that got an opportunity to be enrolled in school. Now am a big girl who is educated and perusing her Master's degree in Education in the faculty of York university based in Canada.

Some of the ideas based on the story of the Bean about indigenous knowledge emphasizes the importance of indigenous learning compared to other forms of learning like traditional and western knowledge. Indigenous learning makes individuals to be analytic thinkers due the rootless it has, to my idea indigenous people are owners of the land so they are familiar with the environment and climate changes that occurred in their area that is why they said indigenous knowledge is tied to the land and within the reading Henry was called in order to show teachers ways in which the learning helps their school children to knowledge that relates to their everyday lives. Indigenous people see learning indigenous knowledge in schools will make their children to practice their language and culture.
Indigenous knowledge learning system is more of practical than theory. As critically engaged educator I can certainly see advantage of taking lessons through practical, particularly the analysis about bean-plant experiment. With these, learners will be able to gain first- hand knowledge by doing and seeing how changes occur stage by stage and it fully leads learners to gain skills and experience based on the experiment taken. The author made me to understand that indigenous knowledge is also handed down in the family-lines from generation to generation (as traditional). Where one of the female teacher-student have shared her experience based on the knowledge of the sky and the patterns of the stars “knowledge comes from experience.” Where she discussed about when to plant and what kind of seeds to plant at specific time by looking the constellations of the stars.
This is also a concerned shared (Chika E, 2019) where she said that indigenous communities are known to have intimate knowledge to their phenomena, much very well than educated person from Western world. Her was to mainstream indigenous knowledge in all fields of study and to her evidences was, she carried out an experiment by comparing indigenous knowledge techniques and western knowledge techniques in the field of agriculture and later on she founded that, the one with indigenous system yielded thrice than the with Western system. Really these reminded me a story my grandfather used to tell us during our early ages. Our grandfather used predict the rains by looking at stars. Saying like if certain kinds of stars appear on a certain side of the sky, we will receive rain together winds by telling us together around him by looking the sky and so on…
