Course description

Not offered in 2014. This course focuses on understanding the diverse backgrounds and cultural characteristics of students and how this impacts on teaching and learning. This cultural perspective is delivered through the principles inherent within the indigenous worldview that proposes indigenous pathways to knowledge as a necessary enhancement of teaching practice and a vital component of a balanced school curriculum. This is then extrapolated into the wider implications for multicultural Australia.
