In this current paper, I combine the conceptual frameworks of Aboriginal literacy and Cavanagh’s (2005) holistic educational model of the Anishinaabe teaching wand to present a holistic model of Anishinaabe literacy. I then consider the ethical responsibility of protecting and sustaining IK. Finally, I share a personal narrative and detail a central model of Anishinaabe literacy—my carving of a turtle shaker. The turtle shaker model is an applied example of Anishinaabe literacy that was developed using learning gained from traditional knowledge and academic environments. The intention is for this model to facilitate the transformation of how IK is taken up in the academy and in schooling settings.  \nPrécis  \nCet article provient du contexte de ma thèse de doctorat, où j'ai étudié mes expériences en tant qu'universitaire qui tente de rester fidèle aux connaissancesautochtones des traditions tout en travaillant dans un cadre intellectuel européen occidental.

My dissertation (Debassige, 2012) makes its contribution to Indigenous discourse by providing an examination and analysis of my personal experiences of coming-to-know Anishinaabe mino-bimaadiziwin (Good Life) and journeying as an oshkabaywis (ceremonial helper) and academic scholar (oshkabaywis-academic) . It has been my participation in ceremonies that has greatly facilitated my re-conceptualized understanding of research and literacy. My dissertation presents one pathway for informing the preparation, conduct, and expression of research grounded in an Indigenous framework of knowing and includes expressions of Anishinaabe literacy that I uncovered along the way. Through my research journey, a model and expression of Indigenous Knowledge (IK) for research that is distinctly Indigenous has emerged. I refer to this model as the turtle shaker. The purpose of this paper is to share an applied example of Anishinaabe literacy that relies on learning gained from traditional knowledge and academic learning environments.  \nFirst, I present the concept of Aboriginal literacy and localize it within Anishinaabe literacy. Next, I discuss my self-referent methodological approach as framed within Anishinaabe mino-bimaadiziwin (Debassige, 2010) . I then describe and present illustrations of a carved turtle shaker, which is the central example of Anishinaabe literacy from my dissertation. The shaker, a three-dimensional spiritcentered teaching tool and musical instrument, was designed to deliver knowledge  \nthrough oral transmission.
