013103 Issues in Aboriginal Education
6cpUndergraduateSubject coordinator: Leanne King
This subject focuses on developing a critical understanding of a range of issues concerning Aboriginal education and examines the social contexts within which Australian education and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander education operate. Rather than attempting to move to resolution or conclusions about issues in Aboriginal education, it seeks to develop skills and knowledge for approaching the negotiation of issues in creative and strategic ways. It explores how to recognise multiple perspectives on specific issues and the use of metaphor as an approach to generating discourse.
