Abstract

How can cultural responsiveness towards Indigenous students be truly embedded in teaching pedagogy and national standards? In this book, Perso and Hayward (2015) seek to provide teachers with practical tools for working effectively with Indigenous students in school settings. This book is written with the teacher in mind, presenting a contemporary tone about the complexities of culturally responsive, quality teaching and learning, across various stages of teaching and assessment. The authors preface their book by emphasising the relevance of strategies for all students, thus demystifying the ‘exotification’ of Indigenous learners, with competencies based upon the individualisation of learning for all students.
