Students develop the skills to critically reflect and assess their own teaching abilities in an Indigenous Australian context. IntroductionThis unit explores ways to develop and apply cross-cultural skills, identify Indigenous pedagogies and develop effective,culturally appropriate teaching strategies that align with the AITSL Graduate Teacher Standards 1.4 and 2.4, and the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) Cross-Curriculum Priorities. Students will learn how to incorporate authentic Indigenous perspectives into the curriculum as well as select, evaluate and use appropriate resources to effectively teach and support Indigenous students and Indigenous Australian knowledge, perspectives, histories and cultures across subject areas in a variety of educational contexts. During the course of the unit there will be opportunities to reflect on one's own cultural positioning and identity so as to develop a deeper understanding of Indigenous Australian cultures in an educational context and how they impact on teaching styles and methods used in the classroom.Unit Learning OutcomesName:Katherine CoulterPhone:N/AEmail:katherine.coulter@ curtin.edu.auLocation:Building: N/A -Room: N/AName:Katie OritiPhone:N/AEmail:katie.oriti@curtin.edu.auLocation:Building: N/A -Room: N/AAdministrative contact:Name:Jacqui HolubPhone:08 9266 2266Email:jacqui.holub@curtin.edu.auLocation:Building: 211 -Room: 140Learning Management System:Blackboard(lms.curtin.edu.au) Office of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Academic OUA Programs INED3002EDC370 Indigenous Australian Education Curtin OUA 18 Feb 2024OUA Programs, Office of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor, AcademicPage: 2of 15CRICOS Provider Code 00301JThe only authoritative version of this Unit Outline is to be found online in OASIS

These inform an employer that, through your studies, you have acquired discipline knowledge and a range of other skills and capabilities which employers would value in a professional setting. Each unit in your course addressesthe Graduate Capabilities through a clearly identified set of learning outcomes. They form a vital part in the process referred to as assurance of learning. The learning outcomes notify you of what you are expected to know, understand or be able to do in order to be successful in this unit. Each assessment for this unit is carefully designed to test your knowledge of one or more of the unit learning outcomes. On successfully completing all of the assessments you will have achieved all of these learning outcomes. Your course has been designed so that on graduating you will have achieved all of Curtin's Graduate Capabilities through the assurance of learning processes in each unit. Curtin's Graduate Capabilities Learning ActivitiesAs OUA students studying this unit wholly online, there are expectations regarding online presence, engagement, and commitment in this mode of study: Online presence:You are expected to participate online.

Academic Integrity WarningsAn Academic Integrity Warningmay be issued to a student in limited circumstances and only where misconduct is not involved. Academic MisconductStaff members are required to report poor academic practiceand suspected misconduct. Academic Misconductmeans conduct by a student that is dishonest or unfair in connection with any academic work. This includes all types of plagiarism, cheating, collusion, falsification or fabrication of content, and behaviours like falsifying medical certificates for extension. Contract cheating, the use of file sharing, translation services/apps, paraphrasing tools (text-spinners), article generators, and assignment help websites also may be considered academic misconduct. Check your assessment instructions carefully before using any generative artificial intelligence (Gen-AI) software (e.g. Chat GPT, Midjourney, GitHub Copilot, etc.). You are not permitted to use Gen-AI software in any assessment task unless written permission is explicitly granted by the Unit Coordinator (e.g. within Blackboard or the assignment specifications). If the use of Gen-AI software has been approved, you must document its use, apply appropriate acknowledgement and attribution rules, and include a statement as to the nature and extent of the use when submitting the assessment. Unapproved, inappropriate, or undisclosed use may be dishonest or unfair behaviour, and thus considered misconduct. For further information on the use of Gen-AI software see the Academic Integrity Website. The longer term personal, social, and financial consequences of misconduct can be severe, so please ask your tutors or unit coordinator if you need clarification or are unsure what to do. If your work is the subject of an inquiry, you will be given an opportunity to respond and appropriate support will be provided.

Additional informationPlease note: Use of AI Generative material is NOT permitted in this unit.Students who are repeating this unit.If you have previously attempted this unit, you may be able to re-use parts of your assessment tasks in this unit attempt. However, in order to avoid self-plagiarism, it is essential that you follow the following procedure: Contact your Unit Coordinator with a request at least seven days prior to the due date for submission. In making your request, provide a copy of your previously-submitted work and clearly identify the parts of y our previous submission that you would like to re-use. Pay close attention to the requirements of the assessment task for the current unit, as these may have changed and your earlier work may not address them adequately. Also consider whether your work can be improved upon in order to maximise your marks, paying careful attention to feedback received. If your request is approved, retain the approval notification, as you will need to attach this to your work. In submitting your assessment, provide the following statement: I, (student name), declarethat I have previously submitted parts or all of this submission in XXX, YYYY (eg SP4, 2019) inunit XXXX#### (eg INED3001). A copy of the approval received from your Unit Co-ordinator. Please note this can be a screen shot. Your tutor will then disregard any similarity to your previous work as revealed by Turnitin, and you will not breach Academic Integrity requirements for the sections of your work that have been approved for resubmission. Turnitin matches for all other content will be reviewed as usual for compliance with Academic Integrity requirements. Please be very aware that if you resubmit previous work for the same unit without attending to the above, you will breach Academic Integrity requirements and this may result in a case of self-plagiarism being logged, which you will then need to answer to. This can then result in penalties being applied to your mark. Please also note that the above applies ONLY to work being resubmitted from a previous attempt at the same unit. You cannot under any circumstances re-use work submitted for a different unit. If you have any questions about how to manage this process, please contact your Unit Coordinator, who will be able to advise you. Academic staff are keen to ensure that you are properly protected by policy provisions and not disadvantaged. This depends on you following procedures correctly. Enrolment It is your responsibility to ensure that your enrolment is correct -you can check your enrolment through the eStudent option on OASIS, where you can also print an Enrolment Advice.
