Abstract

[Extract] In this module, participants canvass a broad range of issues related to the education of Indigenous boys. They examine the main issues influencing the educational participation rates and educational achievement of Indigenous boys, including the causes of alienation of Indigenous boys, and problems in the relationships between schools and teachers and Indigenous boys. They develop familiarity with the perspectives of Indigenous people, so that these perspectives can be applied within the conceptual framework for expanding the repertoires of practice that were introduced in the Core module. They select from a range of strategies shown to be effective in improving learning outcomes for Indigenous boys. Finally, participants are assisted to commence school-based strategic planning for improving Indigenous boys' engagement with school and their educational achievement, using the 'inquiry in action' process introduced in the Core module.
