How much do you know about the diversity of Aboriginal culture in Australia?

Research output: Contribution to specialist publication › Article

Abstract

Many mainstream classrooms in Australia are perceived as monocultural and monolingual (Morrison et al., 2019). This perception could also be extended to the composition of the teaching workforce (Santoro, 2007). Unfortunately, considering this, the teaching and learning taking place could be quite limiting and exclude Australia’s rich history and First Nations people.
