▼ Despite a willingness by stakeholders to address Aboriginal education disadvantage and recent successes in outcomes, Australian education largely continues to fail to provide Aboriginal Australians with educational outcomes and life opportunities commensurate with those of their non-Aboriginal peers. Well-intentioned and widely presumed assumptions about what works to seed success for Aboriginal students seem to prevail and are often unquestionably accepted and implemented as making a real difference in the absence of tangible proof and systemic results. Whilst a diversity of interventions have been implemented they are small-scale in nature, have not been rigorously tested, often rely on a deficit model as opposed to what works for successful students, and have not resulted in fuelling systemic change. Lack of reliable data is impeding progress in addressing the educational disadvantage that Aboriginal children suffer and the development of new solutions for interventions aimed at enhancing the educational outcomes of Aboriginal students. Theory, research, and practice are all inextricably intertwined; neglect in any one area will undermine the others.
The overarching purpose of this research was to determine what conditions surround Aboriginal students in achieving sound academic outcomes, using information gleaned from the NSW Aboriginal Education Review (AER, 2004) to determine a theoretical model of the conditions of success for Aboriginal students (also see Craven, 2006). The research aims to gain information from those students most affected by educational outcomes and the least engaged in research. This research in focusing on Aboriginal students who have been placed in the top 10%–25% as evidenced in their NAPLAN Year 5 tests, has taken a qualitative approach across seven primary schools in the NSW public education system: three Metropolitan and four Regional schools. The research was carried out with N=34 Aboriginal students, using in-depth interview techniques through use of individual brainstorm focus session and photography to elicit Aboriginal students’ perspectives as to the conditions they believed most supported their achieving sound academic outcomes. This was further strengthened by in-depth interviews with key stakeholders in students’ achieving academic success: their parents; teachers the student had in Years 3, 4 and 5; principals and Aboriginal staff in the selected schools.
The findings in this research whilst supporting much of the theorised determinants provide valuable insights and practical recommendations specifically in the practice of teaching Aboriginal students and in provision of support which may assist in raising academic outcomes for all Aboriginal students.

▼ The goal of this study was to examine Indigenous Teaching Circles and their applicability in an online Distance Education setting. The objectives were twofold (1) to define Aboriginal Teaching Circles as a formal method of instruction for cultural teaching in a post-secondary environment, and (2) to identify what elements of Indigenous Teaching Circles would be possible to translate into an online environment. In order to gain a better understanding of the aforementioned I interviewed seven Indigenous Knowledge Keepers who worked in post-secondary institutions and were keepers of the traditional Indigenous values and beliefs.
Drawing on the stories from the participant Knowledge Keepers I define the various Indigenous Circle pedagogies and their subsequent compositions. This thesis confirms that Indigenous Teaching Circles can be conducted in a computer mediated environment with specific instructional design strategies. The most compelling finding in this thesis was the exploration of the inclusion of spiritual entities as participants in the Circles. These presences are referred to as unseen “helpers” and each of the participants interviewed commented on their existence in various ways. This concept is particularly important as these helpers were identified as residing in a virtual world therefore making teaching and learning that much more significant if one believes in this phenomenon. There is no doubt from the data collected that cultural teaching requires a shift in planning and implementation and this thesis offers some suggestions for planning and designing culturally accurate teaching and learning activities.

Signposts and messagesticks: An ethnographic study of non-indigenous drama teachers’ engagement with an indigenous drama text.
Degree: Doctor of Education (EdD), 2019, Australian Catholic University

▼ The purpose of this ethnographic study is to investigate how non-Indigenous Australian secondary drama teachers engage with an Australian Indigenous drama text. Some studies, such as those of Moriarty (1995) and Harrison and Greenfield (2011), have focused on the implementation and teaching of ‘Aboriginal Studies’ and ‘Aboriginal Culture’. There is a gap in scholarly literature relating to the way teachers engage with Indigenous Australian perspectives and texts. In this research, I address the following question: ‘How do non-Indigenous Victorian secondary school drama teachers (NIVSSDTs) engage with Indigenous Australian drama texts and what effects does this have on ‘ways of seeing’ that develops knowledge and understanding?’ Ethnographic and case study research is used to examine how non-Indigenous Victorian secondary school drama teachers (NIVSSDTs) perceive and make sense of an Indigenous Australian drama text. A case study was conducted that included four NIVSSDTs in an ethnographic study of their teaching of an Indigenous drama text. Data collection was based on three data collection methods. First, semi-structured interviews with each of the four NIVSSDTs were undertaken. Second, visual journals of the NIVSSDTs were examined. Finally, discussion in forums involving the participants took place. The case design was informed by Indigenous Australian Aboriginal pedagogy of cultural interface as represented in the eight-stage model of Yunkaporta (2009) and the work on privileging Indigenous Australian ‘ways of Knowing’ by Rigney (1997), Smith (1999), Nakata (2003), Foley (2002) and Blair (2015). Important also to the data analysis were ‘theories of visuality’, especially the conceptual frameworks of reception theory (Hall 1980). Findings from the study were that NIVSSDTs primarily adopt hegemonic or negotiated operating positions especially when concentrating on exam criteria. Negotiated positioning is more evident when NIVSSDTs concentrate on story, themes and contexts. NIVSSDTs tended to aestheticise, objectify and engage with Indigenous Australian cultures positioning Indigenous ‘ways of Knowing’ on the periphery of Western knowledge constructs. Lack of meaningful consultation with Indigenous Australian knowledge holders is also evident. The significance of my research lies in its contribution to knowledge about social, cultural and political issues surrounding Non-Indigenous teachers’ engagement with Indigenous cultures and ‘ways of Knowing'.

▼ My research reflects on the use of drum and song in
schools and reveals its significance from an Anishnaabe kwe
perspective. A storied approach is used relative to Anishnaabe ways
of being and knowing as ‘teachers’ in two forms: debaajimowin
(narratives) and antasokannan (tradition or sacred). Stories are a
functioning part of both the framework and methodology to present a
new and evolving story that is relevant to formal schooling. In
addition to inquiring into Anishnaabe stories, Elders teachings,
and archival records, autobiographical experiences shaped this
inquiry. The analysis was guided by Anishnaabe perspectives, as
well as several key questions asked by Justice Sinclair (2014),
questions that link identity and culture. Key recommendations in
relation to integrating song and drum in relation to formal
schooling point to the necessity to be grounded in community and
cultural ways of being and knowing.

"Gokum showed me how": Four Cree children's perspectives on language and culture maintenance.

▼ Eighty percent of
Indigenous children in Canada attend provincial schools off-reserve where there is no legal requirement for inclusion of
Indigenous language or content in the curriculum. This has implications for the twin challenges currently faced by
Indigenous communities in Canada of maintaining traditional cultures and languages while also overcoming a large gap in educational achievement between
Indigenous and non-
Indigenous children. While the challenges are well understood, there has been little research into these issues from the perspective of the primary stakeholders in
education: children. This qualitative study explores the perspectives of four Cree children, their family members, and some teachers through a critical, social constructivist lens in the context of a James Bay Cree community in northern Quebec, Canada. This study asks, “How do Cree children who live on a reserve and attend non-
Indigenous schools, and their families, make space for the expression and maintenance of their language and culture in daily life?” The data analysed include a ‘photovoice’ project conducted with the four students, and focus group discussions held with the children, their families, and teachers. The findings demonstrate that families maintain Cree traditions through land-based activities like hunting, supported by intergenerational teaching within the family. Although participants expressed cautious optimism for language maintenance, students and parents perceived that Cree knowledge has no place outside of Cree communities. Teachers felt constrained by their lack of confidence, resources or government mandate for including Cree content. Overall, between
Indigenous communities’ twin challenges of culture maintenance and school achievement, achievement appears to be valued more highly by some parents and teachers. These findings have implications for how we understand the ongoing effects of colonization, globalization, and the hegemony of dominant languages and cultures in
Indigenous education.

▼ This thesis explores how Guest participants have engaged with Onkwehonwe (Original People in Mohawk) worldviews as they enrol within post-secondary courses about Onkwehonwe topics, taught by Onkwehonwe instructors/professors from Onkwehonwe perspectives. In order to acquire an understanding of what it means to be a Guest, I spoke to nine Elders and Traditional Teachers on expected Guest behaviour and actions. These teachings along with teachings of Wampum Belts were used to understand and analyze the stories of nineteen Guest participants.
Grounded by Onkwehonwe worldviews, the methodology of this research project centered ceremony. The data collection method was storytelling in sharing circles. In hosting three large sharing circles and seven small ones, participants answered open ended questions. These circles were hosted in Toronto, Ontario between September 2014 and April 2015.
The main findings of this thesis are 1) the primary, secondary and post-secondary
education systems are not providing students with a historically accurate or relevant current
education in relation to Onkwehonwe people, histories and topics; 2) when participants engaged in Onkwehonwe courses and pedagogies they all experienced a paradigm shift that lead to personal and professional growth; 3) this growth fuelled a desire to work in solidarity with Onkwehonwe peoples and a responsibility to share the learnings with other Guest people.
This thesis is novel and contributes to scholarly discourse on Onkwehonwe research as it employs Onkwehonwe methodologies with Guest only participants (other than myself). It also offers the term Guest instead of using words like ‘non-Aboriginal’, or ‘settler’ and provides alternative ways of looking at Onkwehonwe/Guest relationships. In staying true to the data collection method of sharing circles, dissemination of the last question is as a sharing circle chapter. Individuals that are interested in how decolonial methodologies can have practical applications as well as those interested in Onkwehonwe/Guest relationships will find this work of interest.

▼ What purpose does outdoor education (OE) serve? What are the overall objectives of outdoor education programs, and are these objectives helping students connect with the environment around them? These are fundamental questions that need to be raised in order to provide outdoor education opportunities that are meaningful and enjoyable, and that encourage environmental sustainability among students.
Currently, in Ontario, there is no official Ontario Ministry of Education curriculum document for OE. In order for schools to offer OE, they must draw expectations from the physical education curriculum at the desired grade level. Thus, since there is no specific OE curriculum, students may not be receiving the teachings of OE such as being made aware of and learning how to appreciate the local environment, which may in turn prevent understandings of environmental sustainability. This thesis uses policy analysis to examine two curriculum documents that address the following research questions:
1. Does the course PPL30 in the Health and Physical Education (OME, 2000a) curriculum policy document include Overall Expectations that encourage knowledge about the practice of environmental sustainability?
2. Does the Native Studies (OME, 2000b) curriculum policy document, specifically the course within this document titled “Aboriginal Beliefs, Values, and Aspirations in Contemporary Society, Grade 11, College Preparation,” include Overall Expectations that encourage knowledge about the practice of environmental sustainability?
Furthermore, this thesis references two Ontario policy documents that provide additional information about incorporating environmental sustainability throughout the curriculum: Acting Today, Shaping Tomorrow: A Policy Framework for Environmental Education in Ontario Schools (2009) and Ontario First Nation, Metis, and Inuit Education Policy Framework (2007).

▼ As Canada assumes legal responsibility over an unprecedented number of
Indigenous girls entering carceral facilities, educational boarding arrangements, and foster care, it is important to examine how the state is implicated in harming these girls. While these institutions ostensibly exist to provide
Indigenous girls with care, they actually place
Indigenous girls at greater risk of violence, disappearance, and death. Rather than focus on children or women more broadly, this dissertation considers how
Indigenous girls' unique social location and legal minor status subjects these girls to greater state surveillance and management. What’s more, this analysis establishes connections between state violence against
Indigenous girls and Canada’s settler colonial regime. This dissertation is organized into two parts. In part one, I examine the production of colonial narratives about violence against
Indigenous girls through the Inquiry into the Circumstances Surrounding the Death of Phoenix Sinclair (2013) and the Inquest into the Deaths of Seven First Nations Youth (2016). In part two, I shift my attention toward
Indigenous feminist literature on
Indigenous girlhood. Through a close reading of Tracey Lindberg’s Birdie (2015) and The Break (2016) by Katherena Vermette, this study considers the theoretical and methodological possibilities of
Indigenous feminist storytelling. Through an extensive examination of legal processes and
Indigenous feminist literature, this dissertation offers innovative theoretical and methodological tools for addressing settler colonialism and other structures of oppression targeting
Indigenous girls, as well as paths forward.

▼ This study explores how teachers, staff, and community members in one school in the Northwest Territories are integrating Inuvialuit and Gwich’in issues, perspectives, and languages into the school and curriculum. Through the Education Renewal Initiative (2013), the Government of the Northwest Territories identified Indigenous languages and culture-based education as a priority to improving education in the NWT, while recognizing that this is a challenging task for teachers coming into the NWT from southern communities. Utilizing a generic qualitative case study methodology, this study recognizes and celebrates the many successful cultural initiatives that are currently occurring within this one school, and identifies the challenges and barriers to the successful integration of culturally relevant learning opportunities from the perspectives of members of staff in the host school. The hope is that the findings from this study contribute to guiding professional development for school staff employed in this school and region.

▼ Archaeological studies are not part of the school curriculum in Grenada. Thus, students and the larger population have limited knowledge of previous civilisations, and this limited knowledge limits society’s understanding of its history. In many schools, students learn about Grenada’s post-colonial history, while ignoring its pre-Colombian past that includes the island’s
indigenous inhabitants. This thesis highlights some significant deficiencies within the present structure of
education which continue to effectuate a colonial type
education that ignores the pre-Colombian history of
Indigenous Peoples. The thesis examines the history and formation of modern Grenadian society and suggests that the role of colonialism in the formation of modern Grenadian society is a contributing factor that creates a situation in which pre-Columbian history is not considered as part of Grenada's heritage. From a theoretical perspective, the thesis attempts to make a link between national heritage and national identity. The lack of appreciation or knowledge of Grenada's heritage is a direct link to the strength of its national identity. Grenada's national identity appears to have been derailed by the colonial powers for other identities such as race and class. Thus, the thesis argues that there is a need for teacher
education on pre-history and the need for curriculum development in the primary school system in the areas of History, Geography and Social Studies. The thesis further states that the dissemination of
indigenous archaeological knowledge to teachers through the school curriculum in the three
subject areas can help equip students with the
indigenous knowledge, particularly, pre-Columbian history. The thesis makes the claim that raising awareness for the preservation and protection of
indigenous heritage in the tri-island state of Grenada, is one way to overcome the myth of the non-presence of
Indigenous peoples. Learning and (re)interpreting the prehistory about Grenada through archaeological data can strengthen its national heritage and build a strong sense of national identity for the current and future generations.

▼ A number of curriculum reforms which attracted much criticism in post apartheid South Africa have resulted in the curriculum currently adopted. Curriculum changes bring forward issues concerned with the achievement in the attained curriculum of the vision of the intended curriculum through its implementation as forms of curriculum are experienced differently at various levels, largely making teachers responsible for the implementation of the intended curriculum. This qualitative case study of three Life Sciences teachers within the interpretive paradigm aims to explore teachers’ experiences of
Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS) found in the Life Sciences curriculum at a high school in South Africa. This exploration of these experiences is done with the utilisation of a conceptual framework namely, the curricular spider web which identifies what these experiences are, which incorporates the classroom practice of the teachers. In exploring teachers’ experiences the study identifies the attitudes of the teachers’ towards IKS and the influence of these experiences which involves their attitudes on their classroom practice. Purposive and convienance sampling was used in selecting the three teachers who participated in this study. Data was generated from the participants using questionnaires, semi-structured interviews and document analysis in the form of the analysis of teacher lesson plans which were analysed using guided analysis. Findings show that the teachers have above adequate understandings of relevant concepts related to the teaching of Life Sciences, these being the Nature of Science (NOS) and
Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS), which manifests in them having positive attitudes towards IKS which however, does not translate well in their classroom practice. As further findings show that there is a misalignment between the intended curriculum and attained curriculum. A misalignment which is a result of poor implementation of the curriculum by the teachers due to various reasons which includes a lack of understanding of components found within the curricular spider web.

▼ This research explores the stories of
indigenous educators in Rapa Nui, and their engagement with the development of Rapa Nui language and culture in the primary school curriculum. It is suggested that
indigenous education in the island has promoted considerable agency in the development of national intercultural policies, emphasizing the resourcefulness they have had in doing so. This will be discussed in the case of an
indigenous education programme that has been worked through to allow Rapa Nui children to learn in their native language, focusing on the participation that school teachers, staff and parents have in this endeavour. Positioning myself as a non-
indigenous researcher, I am interested in following up on concerns discussed by theorists of decolonization, as a response to Western determination of what constitutes research; particularly in
indigenous communities. This concern is reflected in the question that the research addresses, namely how intercultural
education in Rapa Nui may or may not allow a forum for
indigenous children on the island to develop a culturally responsive
education.
The thesis narrates the conception and implementation of
indigenous education in Rapa Nui in a school setting. The experience of the participants highlights the need to recognize the asymmetry that has characterized intercultural relations at school throughout the history of formal
education in the island. Further, they point to a revitalizing concept of culture to create a curriculum based on the Rapa Nui knowledge tradition. By giving space to this knowledge, it in turn implies a challenge to the existing educational frameworks. Responsibility over language revitalization and enhancement of local knowledge has gradually been positioned in school, and reflection on this work highlights the need to develop strategies that involve the wider society (local and national) in creating a renewed space for
indigenous knowledge.

▼ The South African policy document of the Revised National Curriculum Statement (RNCS) for Natural Science (Department of
Education, 2002), the National Curriculum Statement (NCS) for Life Science (Department of
Education, 2003), and the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) for Natural Science and Life Science (Department of
Education, 2011) recognises and affirms the critical role of
Indigenous Knowledge Systems (IKS) in science
education. These policy documents expect the science teachers to integrate
indigenous knowledge in their lessons. This study strove to establish how selected high school science teachers in the Western Cape Province responded to the inclusion of
indigenous knowledge in their teaching. The present study employed a multi-method approach, involving different research methods used in parallel or sequence but are not integrated until inferences are made (Johnson, Onwuegbuzie & Turner, 2007). This study took place in two main sequential data collection phases, namely, the quantitative data collection phase ((QUAN) and the qualitative data collection phase (qual). This contemporary approach was employed in order to provide credible and trustworthy answers to the following research questions, namely, 1) To what extent are the science teachers in the Western Cape Province integrating scientific and
indigenous knowledge, as required by the Department of
Education? If not, what are their reasons for this? 2) What are the teachers' views about and understanding of the nature of science and
indigenous knowledge as well as their views on how the two worldviews can be integrated in the classroom? 3) How effective was the treatment in enhancing the teachers' ability to integrate science and
indigenous knowledge in the classroom? 4) To what extent can the model of Snively and Corsiglia (2001) be useful for measuring change as the teachers implement the integration of
indigenous knowledge in the science classroom? For the QUAN phase, the researcher adapted a questionnaire and a new questionnaire, the Nature of
Indigenous Knowledge Questionnaire (NOIKQ), was developed. The purpose of this questionnaire was to obtain a detailed description of high schools science teachers' understanding of scientific and
indigenous knowledge, as well as the problems the teachers encounter in their implementation of Learning Outcome 3 of Life Sciences and Natural Science. After the pilot study of the questionnaire and subsequent modifications to it, data were collected. Convenience sampling and purposeful sampling characterised the samples of respondents and schools. This sampling strategy ensured a total sample of 370 high school science teachers in 80 public schools, represented by urban and township schools in the Western Cape Province. The results of the QUAN phase indicated that the teachers did not receive training on how to integrate science and
indigenous knowledge, and that they did not have sufficient knowledge of
indigenous knowledge to teach this aspect confidently to their learners. An inquiry was…

▼ This qualitative research study Tipachimowin: Students and Professors Share Stories about their Winnipeg
Education Centre Experience is a study of selected Aboriginal students and professors who were involved with the Winnipeg
Education Centre (WEC) program. WEC is an inner city teacher
education program that started in the late 1970s, though this study’s focus is in the1980s. During that era, there was an influx of students who attended the program to address the need for more Aboriginal teachers in Manitoba and to address poverty in low income communities (Clare, 2013; Poonwassie & Poonwassie, 2001). The participants shared stories of their life journeys and educational experiences related to their participation as students of WEC. They described the impact the teacher
education program had on their lives. This study also explored the pedagogy and teaching methodology of two professors who taught at WEC during the 1980s.

▼ Completing a comprehensive survey of the
education clauses in forty-one self-governance agreements between different First Nations and the Canadian government regarding educational sovereignty demonstrates that these agreements are not delivering First Nations educational sovereignty. The agreements do not provide First Nations with the autonomy and freedom needed to develop a curriculum framework outside of the provincial or territorial standard. Analyzing the exact clauses and how their wording expands or limits First Nations’ ability to govern educational content and implementation provides an opportunity to identify methods to address these issues in future negotiations. This research provides an opportunity to begin to answer the call for action by the Assembly of First Nations to review all existing documents and make recommendations for their continuance, revision, and termination and to influence the ninety agreements currently under negotiation in Canada.

▼ Ph.D. University of Hawaii at Manoa 2014.
Colonialism radically transformed Indigenous societies and cultures by causing great psychological, spiritual, racial, political, social, and economic trauma. Although this ensued through multiple colonial institutions, none were more insidious than education. Despite this, Native teaching and learning, especially Indigenous inquiry, grew over the last two centuries. This study described ten Native graduate students' and post-graduate scholars' decolonizing experiences, including my own. These decolonizing experiences detailed our use of Indigenous inquiry, our learning of Indigenous inquiry within the university curriculum, and our application of Indigenous inquiry to benefit our Native communities. The study's design encompassed Native research features, such as the Hawaiian methodology of ha'i mo'olelo (storytelling). I weaved the results of my study into a metaphorical Hawaiian 'upena (net) that contained powerful mo'olelo (stories) of how we decolonized our research by exploring our cultural identities; by receiving support in using Native inquiry approaches from mentors, advisors, professors, friends, and others; and by reflecting on the painful research journeys that forced us to seek Indigenous methodologies and methods. Furthermore, our mo'olelo described how we chose Indigenous inquiry because it was personally relevant and beneficial for our communities; we had distinct cultural lenses; and we received inspiration from our ancestors. When we applied these research processes, we included traditions, protocols, and references to our cultural histories; incorporated stories; and made connections between and among our stories. These mo'olelo showcased how the next generation of Native scholars embraced culturally inherent research approaches to benefit their Native communities and are now advocates for the decolonization of university curriculum.

▼ In 2014 and 2015, significant efforts were made by colleges, institutes, and universities to overhaul Indigenous post secondary education in Canada. For universities, the reasons are clear. University achievement rates for Indigenous peoples living in the sixty-five closest communities to where the 15 research intensive universities in Canada (U15) are located is five times lower then the national average. Three major documents outlining strategic plans identified a need to increase Indigenous faculty who represent just .3% of total academic staff at U15. To better grasp how increasing IUI numbers at U15 will impact them a multisite exploratory case study grounded in Indigenous principals of land sustainability was established. This mixed Indigenous and Western approach ensured the study respected both methods for knowledge acquisition. The primary question asked: How are tenured IUI at tier one institutes impacted by relocating for academic appointments? The study overviews the current state of U15 Indigenous education. It explores literature relating to relocation and its potential harmful impacts on IUI and their ability to perform their regular duties, while maintaining their cultural identity. Five IUI located at U15 across Canada with more then 100 years of academic experience collectively, were interviewed and provided important insights to both the complexities of relocating and the challenges of working in a colonial knowledge based academic environment. The latter of these insights eventually became the focus of the findings, discussion, and recommendations for changes. From these findings it is plain, IUI face many succinct challenges in the U15 environment their colleagues do not. From the interruption of cultural continuity, to dramatic underrepresentation, to racism. If universities across Canada wish to fulfill their new mandates to increase IUI, without perpetuating the pitfalls of colonialism, and threatening yet another generation of Indigenous peoples, the recommendations found herein should be used as a guide.

▼ Meaningful and ongoing consultations are critical to Indigenous selfdetermination in Canada and Australia. Consultations are the processes by which organizations and Indigenous communities meet to discuss actions that could potentially affect Indigenous rights or interests. This education thesis is about a community-based partnership study that applies the Aterihwihsón:sera Kaswénta (Two Row Wampum) as a relational framework to investigate how two Indigenous communities across the world— the Carcross/Tagish First Nation (C/TFN) in Yukon, Canada and the Narungga Community of Point Pearce (NCPP) in South Australia—can create and implement online tools to support consultation processes compatible with Indigenous legal traditions, and facilitate more meaningful, equitable, and effective consultations.
In total, 64 participants from the two aforementioned communities/countries took part in this study. Thematic content analysis of this data, along with literature, participant observation, and digital ethnography revealed that there is an overall lack of consultation with the C/TFN, NCPP, and other Indigenous communities. Moreover, it found that existing consultations tend to be ambiguous, fraught with process breakdowns, tokenistic, colonizing, oppressive, ineffective, and lacking community engagement.
While the study suggests that technology can be an important tool (in addition to in-person meetings) in consultations, and several leading practices were identified, the key finding is that the most significant determining factor of the meaningfulness of consultations is relationships. Within the Kaswénta framework, a relationship-based approach is characterized by three interconnected principles: 1) equality, 2) distinction and self-determination, and 3) harmonious, and interdependent co-existence. Time was also shown to be an important element.
This education thesis research has helped to build Information Communication Technology (ICT), consultation, and research capacity among the C/TFN and NCPP participants. It has also helped to build a relationship among these communities and the University of Wollongong that stands to foster future projects of importance. Moreover, it contributes to the body of Indigenous, academic, and practical knowledge on Indigenous consultations and e learning in Canada and Australia, including in a comparative context. Perhaps most significantly, it honours the Kaswénta and introduces it as a relational framework for meaningful consultations with Indigenous communities.

▼ This thesis researched what makes Indigenous students thrive at FNUniv. The focus was specifically on the student perspective. This action research inquiry was led by an Indigenous methodology and complimented with an appreciative inquiry approach. Using interviews and a group discussion that incorporated Photovoice, common themes were identified to help identify what Indigenous students felt made them thrive through their studies. The literature review focused on student success and persistence and honed in on research specific to Indigenous populations. From the research conducted, a collective of themes was identified and used as the basis for four recommendations. In addition, an overarching recommendation was made that linked to the Cree medicine wheel teachings and tipi teachings to offer a model for Indigenous student thriving.

▼ This inquiry was framed in Nuu-chah-nulth worldview. This thesis comes after the announcement of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s (2015b) Calls to Action and demonstrates a collaboration toward reconciliation between an academic institution and Indigenous community. This research knowledge was gathered in accordance with the Royal Roads University (2011) Research Ethics Policy. This thesis explored the postsecondary experiences of Indigenous students through narrative exchanges to better understand how the academic institute could enhance the overall learning experience for Indigenous students. A wholistic approach of the Indigenous postsecondary student journey was followed with a particular focus on strategies to strengthen the engagement and support that can be offered by the academy. The offered guidance to the academic institute supports positive change initiatives, which considers intellectual, emotional, physical, and spiritual space to enhance the opportunity for Indigenous students to feel supported to bring their whole selves into their academic world.

▼ This research project examines
indigenous teachers in rural schools located in a state in southern Mexico, particularly when teaching science. The incorporation of
indigenous ways of understanding nature into science classrooms has been of discussion in the field of science
education, mainly due to the marginalization and low performance of
indigenous students in science. The literature in this field has documented recommendations to teach science to these students that are generally based on teaching strategies that connect
indigenous knowledge to science knowledge. Most of these recommendations have been designed within the Western world and are highly conceptual, which leaves some aspects to explore, e.g. what happens in science classrooms beyond conceptual recommendations, and what frameworks serve
education and research in Latin America, particularly in science
education. This project documents what teachers do in science classrooms, acknowledging their role as experts in their communities. This project provides a perspective on multicultural
education, culturally relevant pedagogies, and
indigenous education as frameworks developed in the U.S., and intercultural
education developed in Latin America and currently implemented in the region as bilingual intercultural
education, in relation to science
education. Based on preliminary studies and by using an interpretive qualitative study, this project used ethnographic methods to document teacher practices implemented to teach science in southern rural Mexico. Data collected was in form of interviews, classroom observations, field notes, and pictures, from three elementary schools and three
indigenous teachers. Research methodology implemented attempted to challenge traditional and hegemonic ways to conduct research with
indigenous populations, and particularly women. In doing so, I engaged in teachers’ regular work life such as planning, teaching, and weekly meetings, in addition to engaging with teachers’ family life such childcare and domestic duties. Findings showed: first, negotiations teachers do between their perspectives about the natural world and the national standards in regard to content and way of teaching. Secondly, resources used for teaching are language, community members, and nature, as well as textbooks, encyclopedias and similar resources. Third, within such resources, Zapotec culture and language is embedded, therefore teaching science results in articulating both
indigenous culture and science. Finally, findings uncovered some of the challenges teachers face, one of them being having to negotiate with community members and particularly parents whose educational expectation about their children differed from teachers’ expectations. While teachers believe and implement an
education that aligns with
indigenous values and culture, e.g. actively using native language in the classroom, parents expect a more conventional
education that allows their children to access to new educational, social and economic opportunities. This study illuminates…

▼ Indigenous laws are complexly gendered yet there is a
lack of research on this subject. As the field of indigenous law is
growing, and as indigenous laws are being revitalized, it is
crucial that gender analyses be included given that law and
decolonization politics are not disconnected from broader social
dynamics. In this dissertation, I engage in a discussion about the
possibilities and challenges relating to research on indigenous
laws and gender by examining Cree legal educational materials. This
study focuses on: 1) how the educational materials, which are meant
to advocate empowerment of Cree people and laws, represent Cree
women as legal agents, and 2) whether and how indigenous feminist
legal theory and methodology facilitate this research. Indigenous
feminist legal theory provides an analytic tool that is attentive
to gendered power dynamics in indigenous laws. This theoretical
approach informs indigenous feminist legal methodology, which is
used to examine discourse and representations. These theoretical
and methodological approaches have not yet been articulated and I
demonstrate that they are vital tools for anti-oppressive
interpretations of law. My research shows that Cree women are
represented in limited ways in the educational materials – first,
through the absence of women, and second, through limited
representations which include women only in relation to traditional
gender roles and ‘women’s issues.’ Indigenous feminist legal
analysis necessitates moving beyond these tendencies and aims to
work with tensions as they arise in my analysis. The educational
materials most often present Cree law in aesthetically pleasing
ways, and indigenous feminist legal analysis demands more difficult
aesthetics. While it is important to examine how and why these
representations are being positively deployed, it is also crucial
to examine what is lost when gendered realities are absent or
erased. For Cree women to be represented as complex legal agents,
Cree law and revitalization need to be gendered in the educational
materials, and beyond. Indigenous feminist legal analysis
encourages scholarship on indigenous laws that treats Cree law (and
other indigenous legal orders) as a living intellectual and
practical resource that can be critically engaged with to discuss
and challenge gendered conflict.

▼ The purpose of this ethnographic narrative is to highlight my experiences as an American Indian educator navigating the field of Special Education. I express my deep underlying passion for teaching through a culturally responsive and critical social justice lens. As a Diné woman I recognize where I come from, my journey in becoming an educator, where I stand within my career field, and how I will strategically continue to thrive in many different settings. Upon writing this ethnographic narrative and completing CGU’s graduate program, a global pandemic (COVID-19) unexpectedly took place and disrupted our lives drastically. I also speak on behalf of these experiences as a student and an educator during the 2019-2020 school year. I conducted research and completed three case studies that highlighted unique experiences and perspectives from three of my focus students and their families. Data was collected from home visits, interviews, student work, personal interactions, assessments, and observations.

Indigenous Knowledge and Diné Knowledge Systems be useful in autoethnography doctoral research? This dissertation uses
Indigenous Research Methodology and autoethnography to make use of storytelling from the Navajo Creation Story and Navajo Circular Model to examine the educational experiences of Native Americans in higher
education. A Navajo Circular Model was developed to provide a visual guide of the
Indigenous Research process utilizing various Navajo traditional elements. This dissertation highlights federal policies that changed the course of Native American
education. The results are in autoethnography that reveals how cultural identity, names, dislocation from home, financial barriers and racism impacted my educational journey.

▼ This thesis used ᐃᓰᐦᒋᑫᐏᐣ/Isîhcikêwin, an Indigenist research paradigm, to explore students’ experiences of participating in the Poo'miikapii: Niitsitapii Approaches to Wellness and Niitsitapiisinni: Real People’s Way of Life programs, which took place in Niitsitapii (Blackfoot) territory in collaboration with Niitsitapii Elders and knowledge holders. Six conversations with Aawaystamattsa (Blackfoot for “learner”) were used for this research. The Aawaystamattsa were integral co-researchers throughout this process.
Findings comprised eight teachings. The two foundational teachings that encompass all other teachings are (1) Indigenous Culture is Healing, and (2) Reconciling Relationships Through Education. The remaining teachings are Personal and Professional Benefits, Strengthening Allyship & Relationships, Intergenerational Wellness/Healing, Community/Collective Wellness, Nations Experiencing Wellness, and Cultural Identity. Included in this thesis is an ᒪᒐᐢᑌᐦᐊᒪᓇᑫᐃᐧᐣ/Macastēhamānakēwin (Cree for “offering”) to communities, institutions, organizations, and agencies who wish to implement programs to support community-based capacity to respond to community wellness needs in sustainable, culturally relevant ways.

▼ This dissertation aims to illuminate why
Indigenous Knowledge is declining in Igbo land, southeastern Nigeria, and the possibilities of using
Indigenous Environmental
Education to re-generate Igbo
Indigenous Knowledge. The research, focusing on both Nigerian Igbo and diasporic Igbo, has the potential to add nuance and complexity to the discussion of
Indigenous Knowledge in the context of Igbo people. This study is motivated by the research question “why is Igbo
Indigenous knowledge declining and how has this decline impacted on Igbo language preservation, socio-cultural and ecological sustainability of Igbo people”? In exploring this fundamental question, I argue that a culturally based
Indigenous environmental
education rooted in Igbo language instruction may assist in preserving Igbo
Indigenous knowledge, and local ecological resources. Drawing on postcolonial theory, decolonization and critical pedagogy as theoretical frames, I argue that these approaches interrogate Eurocentric dominant views, rooted in colonialism, that misrepresent and undermine African
Indigenous knowledge. This dissertation also offers insight into how a persistent colonial mentality, continues to undermine Igbo worldviews. In conducting this research, I employ
Indigenous Methodologies, involving
Indigenous approaches to epistemology – stories and personal narratives. These are supplemented with interviews and document analysis. Since Igbo are well-dispersed people, the research design also considers Igbo Diaspora in Toronto to illustrate the effect of locatedness and the influence of a westernized environment on Igbo language and
Indigenous Knowledge preservation. The findings from the research suggests that complementary epistemology, through a creative integration of Igbo
Indigenous Knowledge and Western epistemic approaches in the school curriculum, presents a viable means of preserving Igbo
Indigenous knowledge. Findings further suggest that Igbo youths are interested in Igbo
Indigenous knowledge, nevertheless, society’s inability to transfer
Indigenous knowledge and widespread western influences presents challenges to the preservation of
Indigenous knowledge. Ultimately we must consider how to incorporate Igbo and other
Indigenous knowledges, into the educational system so that the low-status accorded to them may be reversed. In the Igbo case, I argue, this warrants an epistemological approach grounded in Igbo language instruction and knowledge of the local environment.

▼ This thesis describes the indigenous health agenda as a unique landscape located within the wider field of medical education. The indigenous health agenda offers medical educators the opportunity to contribute to indigenous health and wellbeing. The thesis reviews the commitments of medical schools in Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia to the indigenous health agenda and asks how these commitments are currently being enacted and can best be realised in future. The research identifies an indigenous rights to health approach as under-utilised and potentially beneficial. Using Kaupapa Māori methodology a research study consisting of thirty-two semi-structured interviews (28 individual, two joint, and two focus group interviews) was undertaken across two research phases. In Phase One, key informant interviews were conducted to gain insight into stakeholder perceptions of medical school commitments to the indigenous health agenda. In Phase Two, a case study was carried out at The University of Auckland Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, in which key informants discussed the relevance and potential applications of Phase One findings. Thematic analysis was used to encode and order data. Study findings establish the viability of a rights approach, and bring into focus drivers of the indigenous health agenda, obstacles to the indigenous health agenda, and strategic pathways for the indigenous health agenda. The indigenous health agenda is redefined as building a strong indigenous presence in medical schools via four strategic pathways - indigenous knowledge and information, indigenous process and practice, indigenous personnel, and indigenous resource base - and transforming institutions to enable that presence to have impact. When the four strategic pathways are applied across the domains of clinical teaching and learning, cultural understanding and critical awareness, community relations, and indigenous leadership and organisational autonomy, a 4 X 4 table of the indigenous health agenda is developed. The indigenous health agenda is then understood to consist of ends, means, and motives. The ends are to reduce indigenous health inequities and contribute to indigenous health and wellbeing. The practical means are to develop indigenous presence within and across pathways and domains in medical education. The motives are human rights to health and more specifically and powerfully, indigenous rights to health. Developing each facet of the indigenous health agenda is a task still to be achieved, as is mastering the complex dynamics of equitable partnerships between medical schools and indigenous communities, and between indigenous leaders and their non-indigenous allies. Even so, the thesis predicts a bright future for better understanding and further practical developments of the indigenous health agenda in Aotearoa New Zealand and Australian medical schools.

▼ Due to colonization, Native Hawaiians have been
historically marginalized and disconnected from their culture,
resulting in profound negative outcomes. This study explored
traditional (non‐Western) forms of
education through the case
studies of Native Hawaiian women voyagers and focused on voyaging
knowledge and culture as they participated in the E Mau voyage in
1999. The purpose of the study was to understand the influence that
the voyaging experience had on these women, and to understand how
the reconnection with their cultural experience influenced their
lives. The study sought to answer three research questions: 1) How
did the E Mau voyage influence the lives of the women crewmembers?
2) How did the E Mau voyage influence what they do with their
lives? 3) How did the approach E Mau took to preparing them for the
voyage shape how and what they learned? Participants in the study
were Native Hawaiian women born in the 1970s, and were crewmembers
on the E Mau voyage. This qualitative multi‐case study included
multiple in‐depth interviews and the collection of documents and
artifact from each participant. Findings revealed that values and
relationships were significant in the transference of voyaging
knowledge. The
Indigenous learning process the women experienced
was reciprocal in nature, including observation, application, and
the expectation to teach others as part of the learning
environment. Cultural connections and understandings were
strengthened, and the study showed that the voyage experience
influenced the women’s perspectives, decisions, and actions years
beyond the actual experience.

▼ Indigenous Knowledge Centers (IKC) on higher
education campuses are unexplored in educational research, but they may be one of the most critical advancements in equality and decolonization efforts. This dissertation presents findings to descriptively introduce IKCs through a shared learning journey that is both culturally safe and relevant. Using
Indigenous and qualitative methodologies, this shared learning journey found that IKCs are an Internationalization at Home (IaH) practice that produces Indigenization by bringing awareness to and valuing
Indigenous Knowledge and Culture. It offers healing through land connection, honoring Elders, and building respectful relationships. IKCs are Strong Medicine.

▼ No decorrer das últimas décadas, muitos grupos indígenas vêm progressivamente intensificando e ampliando a gama de relações com os mais variados setores da sociedade nacional. Nesse contexto, assumem a tarefa de elaborar discursos em que devem se apresentar, enquanto grupos diferenciados, para o öutro\'\'. Na construção desse diálogo, as experiências de escolarização, especialmente na sua vertende \"diferenciada\", constituem um rico espectro de produção discursiva que esta dissertação pretende enfocar. É, de fato, no âmbito dessas experiências de ensino formal, que muitos grupos indígenas estão refletindo e recriando através da escrita em línguas indígenas e em língua portuguesa suas formas de produzir e transmitir experiências históricas. Tendo como enfoque o processo de escolarização e letramento em andamento em vários contextos indígenas no país, a presente dissertação tem como objetivo analisar dez materiais didáticos cuja proposta é a escrita de narrativas sobre reflexões e experiências históricas e sobre conhecimentos entendidos como \"tradicionaisëlaboradas no ambito de cinco experiências de escolarização (Acre, Amazonas, Espírito Santo Xingu, Mato Grosso e Minas Gerais). Busca-se averiguar através da análise dos materiais didáticos, como professores e lideranças indígenas vinculados a essas cinco experiências estão utilizando a linguagem escrita para construir representações de si mesmos, nas quais procuram articular seus saberes tradicionais e as concepções ocidentais de conhecimento e transmissão de experiências históricas.
During the last decades, many indigenous groups have progressively intensified and increased the span of relations with various sectors of national society. In this context, they have assumed the task of elaborating discourses in which they present themselves to the other as differentiated groups. In constructing this dialogue, experiences in schooling, specially of the differentiated kind, constitute a rich spectrum of discursive production, which this thesis seeks to focus upon. In fact, it is within these experiences of formal education that many indigenous groups are reflecting and recreating through the use of writing in the native and Portuguese languages their forms of producing and transmitting historical experiences. Focusing on the process of schooling and literacy in progress in various indigenous contexts throughout the country, this thesis seeks to analyze ten examples of educational material, produced in five different school programs (Acre, Amazonas, Espírito Santo, Xingu, Mato Grosso and Minas Gerais), that have as an objective the written production of narratives concerning historical experiences and reflections and that which is understood to be traditional knowledge. The objective of this research is to understand, by means of the analysis of this educational material, how indigenous leaders and teachers connected to these five school programs are using the written language to produce representations of themselves, in which they seek to articulate their…
