The mission of higher education in the twenty-first century must
address the reconciliation of student learning and experiences
through the lens of indigenous education and frameworks. Higher
learning institutions throughout Oceania have established
frameworks for addressing indigeneity through the infusion of an
indigenous perspectives' curriculum. The incorporation of island
indigenous frameworks into their respective curriculums, colleges
and universities in Oceania have seen positive impact results on
student learning leading to the creation of authentic experiences
in higher education landscapes. This book discusses ways of
promoting active student learning and unique experiences through
indigenous scholarship and studies among contemporary college
students in Guam, Micronesia, and other areas of Oceania. Further,
the publication will be an intersection of three separate
disciplines: first, an introduction to the fields of indigenous
studies; second, language and/or cultural preservation; third,
student success within the higher education landscape. This
publication will benefit individuals with a professional interest
in the influence of indigenous curriculum in higher education, and
among diverse student populations. The book's focus is on meeting
practical challenges and will address two objectives. The first is
to provide an understanding of the essential link between practices
for incorporating island indigenous curriculum, and strategies for
effective student learning and creating authentic experiences. The
second objective is to provide course designs that are aligned with
frameworks addressing indigeneity that place college teachers in
the role of leaders for lifelong learning through indigenous
scholarship and studies in Oceania. Further, the publication will
be a useful tool for research, particularly, given the timing of
globalization, expanding rights of marginalized populations, the
increased focus on representation in the literature, and critical
developments in indigenous rights and sovereignty throughout the
Pacific. Although this project's focus is on higher education in
Oceania, the product is a publication that is reliable, well
founded, and a highly sought-after book that would be instrumental
and valuable to higher education students, professors, researchers,
and scholars all over the world.
