Description

In this course, you will be immersed in the competing and politicised discourses and school level practices that play a part in what is known as Indigenous education in Australia. The aim of the course is to equip you with skills, knowledge and the confidence that will support you in becoming an active and aware contributor to improving teaching practices and learning outcomes within the Indigenous education landscape. Informed by ideas and strategies coming from a range of theoretical frameworks, you will critically engage with the literature and research that underpins Indigenous education, challenging you to reflexively position yourself within this landscape as active agents of change.
