Teaching Aboriginal Studies has been widely used as a practical guide by classroom teachers in primary and secondary schools, and also in teacher education. Chapters on Aboriginal history and culture, stereotypes and racism, government policies and reconciliation provide essential background knowledge for the inclusion of Aboriginal issues across the curriculum. This second edition of Teaching Aboriginal Studies has been updated to encompass the many changes that have occurred in the Aboriginal community and developments in research over the past decade. It includes a wide range of valuable teaching sources including poetry, oral histories, newspaper articles and government publications. There are also strategies and resources for teaching Aboriginal Studies in different contexts, and research on Aboriginal learning styles. The text is illustrated with photographs, paintings, prints and cartoons. This book is the product of consultation and collaboration across Australia and includes contributions from well-known Aboriginal educationalists.
