Teaching Aboriginal Cultural Competence : Authentic Approaches

This book examines a collaborative partnership model between academia and Indigenous peoples, the goal of which is to integrate Indigenous perspectives into the curriculum. It demonstrates how the authentic and creative approaches employed have led to an evolution of curriculum and pedagogy that facilitates cultural competence among Australian graduate and undergraduate students. The book pursues an interdisciplinary approach based on highly practical examples, exemplars and methods that are currently being used to teach in this area. It focuses on facilitating student acquisition of knowledge, understanding, attitudes and skills, following Charles Sturt University’s Cultural Competence Pedagogical Framework. Further, it provides insights into the use of reflective practice in this context, and practical ideas on embedding content and sharing practices, highlighting examples of potential “ways forward,” both nationally and globally.Author: Hill, Barbara,editor,Harris, Jillene,editor,Bacchus, Ruth,editor Contributors: Hill, Barbara,editor,Harris, Jillene,editor,Bacchus, Ruth,editor Binding: paperback Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Edition: 1st ed. 2020 Published/Release Date: 12 Nov 2021 Format: Paperback / softback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Springer Verlag, Singapore Author/Director/Artist: Barbara Hill Dimension (cm): 235x155x13 mm Package Dimension (cm): 13x235x155 mm Item Weight (g): 355 Package Weight (g): 422
