Book excerpt: The National Report to Parliament on Indigenous Education and Training, 2004 tracks progress in Indigenous education and training in 2004 at all levels, from preschool through to higher education. In 2004, the Indigenous Education Strategic Initiatives Programme provided supplementary funding to more than 200 preschools, schools, vocational and technical education (VTE) organisations and education systems, in both the government and non-government sectors. Education providers in receipt of IESIP funding report against outcomes in eight priority areas. Four priority areas relate to improving outcomes for Indigenous students â in literacy and numeracy; enrolments; attendance and retention; and in educational outcomes such as the gaining of Year 12 Certificates. Under the heading of Indigenous influence, involvement and presence, progress in the four other priority areas of Indigenous employment; professional development of staff involved in Indigenous education and training; involvement of Indigenous parents and communities in education and training; and culturally inclusive curricula is analysed and discussed. Interspersed through this report is a series of âfeaturesâ highlighting the activities of eleven education providers representing all levels of education and a wide range of geographical locations. In addition, developments in numerous other Australian Government programmes that assist Indigenous students are detailed, together with details of expenditure.

Book excerpt: Teaching Aboriginal Studies has been a practical guide for classroom teachers in primary and secondary schools, as well as student teachers, across Australia. Chapters on Aboriginal history and culture, stereotypes and racism, government policies and reconciliation provide essential knowledge for integrating Aboriginal history and culture, issues and perspectives across the curriculum. This second edition of Teaching Aboriginal Studies encompasses developments over the past decade in Aboriginal affairs, Aboriginal education and research. It features a wide range of valuable teaching sources including poetry, images, oral histories, media, and government reports. There are also strategies for teaching Aboriginal Studies in different contexts and the latest research findings. The text is lavishly illustrated with photographs, posters, paintings, prints, ads and cartoons. Teaching Aboriginal Studies is the product of consultation and collaboration across Australia. Remarkable educators and achievers, both Aboriginal and other Australians, tell what teachers need to know and do to help Aboriginal students reach their potential, educate all students about Aboriginal Australia and make this country all that we can be. 'The importance of this book cannot be overestimated. We have been insisting for years that pre-service teachers be required to learn about Aboriginal history, culture and identity, and that it be regarded as integral to qualifying for their education degrees.'

Download or read book International Studies in Educational Inequality Theory and Policy written by Richard Teese and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-18 with total page 981 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inequality is a marked and persistent feature of education systems, both in the developed and the developing worlds. Major gaps in opportunity and in outcomes have become more critical than in the past, thanks to the knowledge economy and globalization. The pursuit of equity as a goal of public policy is examined in this book through a series of national case-studies. The book covers many different global contexts from the wealthiest to some of the poorest nations on earth. It therefore offers a broad range of different theoretical and methodological approaches, and brings together extensive international experience in equity policy.
Download or read book The Habitat of Australia s Aboriginal Languages written by Gerhard Leitner and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-08-22 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The languages of Aboriginal Australians have attracted a considerable amount of interest among scholars from such diverse fields as linguistics, political studies, archaeology or social history. As a result, there is a large number of studies on a variety of issues to do with Aboriginal Australian languages and the social contexts in which they are used. There is, however, no integrative reader that is easily accessible to the non-specialist in any of the areas concerned. The collection edited by Leitner and Malcolm fills this gap. Looking at Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders and their changing habitats from pre-colonial times to the present, the book covers languages from a structural and functional linguistic perspective, moves on to the issue of cultural maintenance and then turns to language policy, planning and the educational and legal dimensions. Among the many themes discussed are: the social and linguistic history of language contact after 1788 (including the Macassans); the demographic base of indigenous languages; traditional indigenous languages; results of language contact such as the modification of traditional languages and the rise of contact languages (pidgins, creoles, esp. Kriol, Torres Strait Creole, and Aboriginal English); the impact of the Aboriginal languages on mainstream Australian English; maintenance, shift, revival and documentation of indigenous and contact languages; language planning; language in education; language in the media; language in the law courts. The contributors are leading experts in their fields. The book can serve as a reader for university courses but also as a state-of-the-art work and resource for specialists like applied linguists or educational planners.
