Indigenous children, like all children, deserve a future they
choose for themselves. This book aims to empower teachers to help
halt the cycle of disadvantage for Aboriginal and Torres Strait
Islander students and make a real difference to their
relationships, learning outcomes and opportunities in the short and
long term.Based on their many years of experience in teaching and
research, the authors provide approaches that have been proven to
be effective. There are strategies for developing sensitivity to a
student's cultural background, creating a tone in the classroom
conducive to learning, building strong teacher-student
relationships and effectively managing student behaviour. The
authors show how to bridge the demands of the curriculum with the
learning Indigenous students bring with them to the classroom and
how to work with the learning styles of Aboriginal and Torres
Strait Islander students. There is a focus on the best approaches
for assessment and an exploration of the particular challenges for
teachers of students in remote locations.Both practical and
inspiring, this is an essential reference for all teachers working
with Indigenous students, whether they be in the city or rural
areas, in a class of twenty-five or just one student. 'Teaching
Indigenous Students should be essential reading for all educators.
This book will challenge the mind and stir the spirit of the
practitioner and will help forge a new future for the teaching of
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. A seminal piece of
work.' - Professor Mark Rose, Executive Director of Indigenous
Strategy and Education, La Trobe University'Hayward and Perso
provide the knowledge, wisdom and insights that guarantee success
to any teacher who is prepared to embrace their messages, and work
hard to make Indigenous students stronger and smarter.' - Dr Chris
Sarra, Chairman, Stronger Smarter Institute'This is a quality piece
of work that will contribute to a more informed Australian teaching
workforce and more happier and successful Indigenous learners.' -
Professor Peter Buckskin PSM FACE, Dean, Indigenous Scholarship,
Engagement and Research, University of South AustraliaTeaching
