Book excerpt: This National Teaching Fellowship addressed the issue of low participation rates of Indigenous students in Higher Degree by Research (HDR) programs and developed strategies to improve the transition of Indigenous students from undergraduate to HDRs. The Australian Council of Learned Academies (ACOLA) Review of Australiaâs Research Training System (2016) identified Indigenous students a s one of the most underrepresented groups in Higher Degrees by Research (HDRs)/Research Higher Degrees today. Drawing on critical pedagogy as the theoretical and methodological framework, the fellowship was completed in four phases and included collaboration with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander advisory group, two Indigenous evaluators and a network of Indigenous staff. There were five phases involved : Phase one a day long Indigenous advisory group meeting, Phase two a pilot workshop, Phase three further workshops, Phase four another advisory group meeting, interviews and a national symposium and Phase five a second national symposium. Ultimately, the knowledge gained through the fellowship will inform universities and other research institutionsâ programs for Indigenous students, empowering them to achieve their education goals, have their voices heard, and help build a better future for Indigenous Australians.

This book brings together contributions by researchers, scholars, policy-makers, practitioners, professionals and citizens who have an interest in or experience of Indigenous pathways and transitions into higher education. University is not for everyone, but a university should be for everyone. To a certain extent, the choice not to participate in higher education should be respected given that there are other avenues and reasons to participate in education and employment that are culturally, socially and/or economically important for society. Those who choose to pursue higher education should do so knowing that there are multiple pathways into higher education and, once there, appropriate support is provided for a successful transition. The book outlines the issues of social inclusion and equity in higher education, and the contributions draw on real-world experiences to reflect the different approaches and strategies currently being adopted. Focusing on research, program design, program evaluation, policy initiatives and experiential narrative accounts, the book critically discusses issues concerning widening participation.

Download or read book Indigenous Postgraduate Education written by Karen Trimmer and published by IAP. This book was released on 2020-06-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on Indigenous participation in postgraduate education. The collaborating editors, from the contexts of Australian, Canadian and Nordic postgraduate education, have brought together voices of Indigenous postgraduate students and researchers about strategies to support postgraduate education for Indigenous students globally and to promote sustainable solution-focused and change-focused strategies to support Indigenous postgraduate students. The role of higher education institutions in meeting the needs of Indigenous students is considered by contributing scholars, including issues related to postgraduate education pedagogies, flexible learning and technologies. On a more fundamental level the book provides a valuable resource by giving voice to Indigenous postgraduate students themselves who share directly the stories of their experience, their inspirations and difficulties in undertaking postgraduate study. This component of the book gives precedence to the issues most relevant and important to students themselves for consideration by universities and researchers. Bringing the topic and the voices of Indigenous students clearly into the public domain provides a catalyst for discussion of the issues and potential strategies to assist future Indigenous postgraduate students. This book will assist higher education providers to develop understanding of how Indigenous postgraduate students and researchers negotiate research cultures and agendas that permeate higher education from the past to ensure the experience of postgraduate students is both rich in regard to data to be collected and culturally safe in approach; what connections, gaps and contradictions occur at the intersections between past models of postgraduate study and emerging theories around intercultural perspectives, including the impact of cultural and linguistic differences on Indigenous students' learning experiences; how Indigenous students’ and researchers’ personal and professional understandings, beliefs and experiences about what typifies knowledge and research or adds value to postgraduate studies are constructed, shared or challenged; and how higher education institutions manage the potential challenges and risks of developing pedagogies to ensure that they give voice and power to Indigenous postgraduate students.
Download or read book Higher Degree by Research written by Peter Anderson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book provides insights from Indigenous higher degree research (HDR) students on supervision practices in an Australian context. It examines findings from qualitative studies conducted with Indigenous HDR students from different academic disciplines, enrolled higher education institutions across Australia, and supervisors of Indigenous HDR students. Six types of data and their thematic analyses are presented, to understand the needs and experiences of both Indigenous HDR students and supervisors of Indigenous HDR students. This book also unpacks assumptions and commonly held beliefs about Indigenous HDR students, and shares what Indigenous HDRs report they need to experience success in higher education. It reports the experiences of supervisors of Indigenous HDR students, and explore further opportunities which enhance the higher education experiences of Indigenous HDR students. This book also suggests how successful relationships between Indigenous HDR students, and their supervisors may be fostered, and aims to be a useful resource for Indigenous peoples wishing to pursue higher education, and HDR supervisors in countries with Indigenous populations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is proof of what is possible when higher degree candidates and their supervisors collaborate to ensure publication of higher degree research; one of the responsibilities that comes with higher degree candidature and supervision. It transcends the limitations inherent in traditional ‘isolationist’, ‘master and apprentice’ relationships to reveal the transformative value of building productive networks among academics and students. Written for higher degree research policy makers, administrators, supervisors and candidates in the field of education, this book aims to provoke departmental mindfulness of the higher degree research journey and, in light of this, reconsideration of the nature of supervisory roles and practices. It explores key research on higher degree research candidature and supervisory practices; reveals the reflections of 14 higher degree candidates’ experiences in terms of the impact and transformations that occur as a result of undertaking research, not least of which is writing for publication; showcases aspects of their research in their published chapters; and accords them first author status. Its five sections are: Publishing Higher Degree Research: key research on higher degree research candidature and supervisory practices, and the process of transforming students from candidates into published researchers. Learning with Technology: in Aboriginal education and in primary and early childhood education. Professional Learning and Practice: in the development of teacher research and inquiry, enhancing and assuring learning quality in Indonesia and Lesotho, and higher order thinking in teaching trade skills. Student Learning: in teaching English language in Indonesia, and the place of intimation in creativity and innovation in mathematics teaching. Curriculum Change: in teaching University mathematics in English in Indonesia, integrating graduate attributes in an Islamic University in Aceh, enabling innovation in Acehnese schools and reforming assessment in Rwanda.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of the literature review has been to identify information in relation to the key enablers, constraints, knowledge gaps, and current initiatives to support under-represented groups, strategies to assist potential students to transition successfully into higher education and best practice examples for deeper analysis of factors affecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander transition to Australian universities. The Review of higher education access and outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people: Final Report (IHER), published in September 2012 (Behrendt et al., 2012), reviewed and made recommendations on higher education access and outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. This literature review has contributed to this body of research through investigating the transition to higher education of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.

Book excerpt: The thesis provides an alternate perspective to the existing documentation of a specially designed Postgraduate Program at the Centre for Aboriginal Studies at Curtin University of Technology in Perth Western Australia. Thirteen students from the inaugural intake of fifteen in the Program make explicit their experience in learning research and how they survived in 1997. The individual students came from diverse life, education and employment backgrounds as a new wave of Indigenous researchers wanting to research in diverse Indigenous contexts. Their journey as Indigenous researchers learning how to privilege Indigenous voices in the research was a new experience in postgraduate higher education. Indigenous people' who aspire to postgraduate study is a recent phenomenon because of the history of limited access to education for Indigenous peoples in the twentieth century. Not much is known of this phenomenon. I used an interpretative approach to investigate and analyse this phenomenon to privilege Indigenous students' experiences which was modelled from the Program philosophy and curriculum. I wanted to find out what was the experience of students who had come to learn during the coursework units. I also sought to understand the student's development as a group whilst on campus and then what transpired when students entered the field as individuals who became isolated from the familiar peer, personal and academic support systems. Although there were many barriers to overcome, they survived and their journey had just begun as researchers.

Book excerpt: "An engaging guide for future best-practice, this book provides an illuminating account of how the innovative programs of education and research at one Centre for Aboriginal Studies made a demonstrably positive difference to the lives of Indigenous students. Written by the experts involved, the book provides detailed descriptions of these ground-breaking education and research programs that saw an increase in the number of Indigenous graduates emerging from the Centre for Aboriginal Studies at Curtin University. Each chapter documents a different stage in the development and delivery of these programs and demonstrates how innovative and culturally appropriate principles of teaching, learning and organizational processes empowered participants to make a real difference in the lives of their families and communities. The book also addresses the challenges faced by such programs and the counterproductive pressures of market-based economic policies, highlighting the need to create an environment attuned to Aboriginal desires for social justice, self-management and self-determination. As a celebration of genuine success in higher education for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, and a guide on how to improve practice in the future, this book is an essential resource for all professionals and policy makers looking to make a real difference to the lives of Indigenous peoples"--
