Indigenous Education in Australia: Learning and Teaching for Deadly Futures

Taking a strengths-based approach, this text supports new and experienced teachers to drive positive educational outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.

Thoroughly revised to include the latest research and practice, this new edition includes four brand new chapters which cover topics such as learning from, with and on Country, school learning environments, culturally responsive leadership and embracing local Indigenous knowledges and perspectives. Each chapter provides an in-depth understanding of the colonised context within which education in Australia is located, with an emphasis on effective strategies for the classroom. Throughout the text, the authors share their personal and professional experiences, providing rich examples for readers to engage with and reflect on. Learning is further supported by Stories from Practice, Reflective Questions, links to resources for further reading and exploration, as well as a podcast series which includes episodes that complement and expand upon the content of each chapter.

Retaining its applied focus and accessible language, this textbook remains an essential resource for pre- and in-service educators on creating contexts for success for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.
