- Title
Native American Family Technology Journey.
- Abstract
The article focuses on the 2005 Native American Family Technology Journey, a technology that would give Native People the chance to explore what technology and innovation can mean for their families. The Journey, which was sponsored by the International Business Machines Corp. and Career Communications Group, played host to computer and Internet workshops, educational and career seminars and interactive demonstrations. It provided technology access and training to Native Americans residing in urban centers, rural areas and on tribal lands, and at the same time established a forum in which Native People learned more about the technology's potential to help pass their distinguishing languages, stories and customs from one generation to another.
