To ensure a distinctively Cheyenne perspective, the Northern Cheyenne Tribe published the book through its own college. "I have always supported the goal of Indian self-determination, which includes natives writing their own histories, so I had some serious feelings about participating in the project at first," said Wilson. "But we developed a working group relationship based upon friendship and sharing and respect." Wilson is currently the chair of the UVU American Indian Studies Program, an academic minor within the Committee of Interdisciplinary Studies, and teaches American Indian and United States history in the Department of History and Political Science. The book is available at the Chief Dull Knife College bookstore, PO Box 98, Lame Deer, Mont.. 59043. from* A1 ementary education. She has since worked with Alpine School District, though taking a break to raise her family. For the past three years, she has been working as an instructional coach who trains first-year junior high school teachers. "I have really enjoyed my assignments as an instructional coach, looking at how students learn and seeing how teachers can reach to every student within our stewardship," said Hale. "I'm excited to see what kinds of research there are out there for teaching strategies [...] to become a better teacher and help those who I work with." The master's of education program is designed for those who are in the education profession. Hale and her fellow classmates attend class once a week on Tuesday evenings for three hours during the fall and spring semesters. During the summer, they take nine credit hours. Classes are taught as team-teaching classes, meaning there are two professors teaching a class. This is to give students dual-perspectives on elementary and secondary education. After two years, students will graduate and be recognized as the first graduating class of UVU's graduate program. Hale felt that after she graduates, a lot of options will open for her. She currently enjoys working with first-year teachers, so is looking at the possibility of continuing in this but with teachers at the college or university level. Hale's favorite thing about teaching is "seeing the light come on" when a struggling student begins to understand what is being taught. She said that she believes every person is capable of learning and she hopes to learn more teaching methods at UVU to continue to help students succeed in their studies.
