Teaching and Learning in Indigenous Education prepares teachers for both the classroom and community environments they will encounter when teaching indigenous children in urban, rural and remote primary and secondary schools. A strong practical focus including 'Learning from Experience' examples is balanced with a dose of theory to equip future teachers with the skills to adapt their teaching to the needs of individual students. Helpful tips on how to manage changes to lifestyle while adjusting to different cultural environments contribute to making the book an essential text.

5.0 out of 5 based on 2 reviews. 5 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 19/08/2009

This is an easy to read and understand text, with personal stories and practical ideas to support and illustrate the teaching of Aboriginal students. I am studying education at uni and this is one book I am happy to read before other more "academically" written texts. I am sure it will remain on my bookshelf for reference in later years.
