Funded Activity Summary
Closing the educational gap for Aboriginal primary students in low density schools: A qualitative analysis of impact of culturally inclusive pedagogy. Closing the gap between Aboriginal students' achievement and their peers is a national priority. Culturally inclusive practice is considered to be a potent key for what works, yet little is known about its actual impact. This research seeks to explicate the impact of specific culturally inclusive practices on Aboriginal students' educational outcomes andwell-being. The outcomes of this research have the potential to'break the cycle' of underachievement by generating new solutions to strengthen classroom and schooling practice of salience to Aboriginal children; increase Aboriginal student engagement in schooling; and build capacity at community, school, classroom, & individual levels.Funded Activity Details
