Digging Deeper: Using Text Analysis to Develop 121 the English Literacy of Indigenous Students Patricia Beattie 5 in+rocluc+Ion I'll keep this introduction short and to the point because I don't want to give too much of the content of this book away by telling other people's stories for them. The title of this book, Double Power, comes from the words of Mandawuy Yunupingu in describing his personal experience of becoming a person who is literate across two cultures. Mandawuy Yunupingu argues persuasively that being literate in English has added to the resources he has at his disposal in negotiating with the dominant culture. What I have tried to do in this book is put together a collection of articles which address both the practical and political aspects of literacy in English and Indigenous Australians. On the practical side, the books includes case studies from a number of contexts. These contexts vary in both their circumstances and their locations. They include adult workplace literacy (Western Australia), literacy for adults in tertiary education (Northern Territory) and primary and secondary schooling (Arnhem Land and Central Australia). All of these articles are written by practitioners with experience in the field and all of them document actual practice. On the political side, because of the often contentious and sometimes acrimonious debates which happen around the issue of literacy in English, I have left it to two Indigenous contributors to state their positions. Mandawuy Yunupingu, from North East Arnhem Land writes of his experiences in becoming literate across two cultures. Martin Nakata, a Torres Strait Islander, presents an impassioned case for English literacy in schools in the Torres Straits Islands.I will not summarise or paraphrase these articles, instead I will let them speak for themselves. Of the case-study oriented articles, Brian Gray's, David Rose's and Wendy Cowey's chapter both presents a case for and exemplifies in detail a pedagogic model for teaching literacy in schools. The chapter focuses on teaching primary and secondary school Aboriginal children from Central Australia. The other school DOUBLE POWER: ENGLISH LITERACY AND INDIGENOUS EDUCATION oriented chapter documents the work and experiences of two teachers, Colleen Bowman and Lily Pascoe, and a teacher mentor, Trish joy, and their primary age class in Maningrida, in Arnhem Land. This chapter highlights co-operative teaching between an Aboriginal teacher and a non-Aboriginal teacher and the innovative approaches they implement, especially the use of the Internet in literacy teaching. The other chapters focus on adult contexts. Peter Wignell's chapter documents his work in developing worplace literacy training materials for Aboriginal workers at a mine site inthe.Kimberley region of north west Western Australia. Patricia Beattie's chapter is about working with Indigenous students from remote communities who are undertaking tertiary education courses at Batchelor College in the Northern Territory. 7 Vi CHAPTER 1 ()out:4e Power Mandawuy Yunupingu Yirrkala, Arnhem Land What I'm writing about here is, on the surface, my experience of becomingan educated, literate person in and across two cultures, Yolngu and Balanda*. (*Balanda is a term used in the Top End of the Northern Territory to refer tonon- Aboriginal people.) On another level, however, I want to use my story as an example of what I call 'double power'. By 'double power' I mean the power to operate in and negotiate between two cultures, in my case Yolngu and Balanda. First I'm going to talk about how things are now for me. Then I'm going to talk about some of my life history to show how things got to be the way they arenow for me. Finally I'm going to offer some suggestions and possibilities for the future. My experience as part of Yothu Yindi illustrates the meaning of 'double power'. In Yothu Yindi we bring together music, ceremony, lyrics and technology from two cultural traditions into a fusion which produces something new and different. Different threads are woven together and then put out into the worldas a finished product that is something new and different. I guess you could say that whatwe are doing is a kind of multi-literacy, or multi media and multicultural literacy. Isee this as a positive thing, not putting two cultures up against each other but bringing them together. However, the kinds of things we are trying to achieve with Yothu Yindi are a long way from where I started. Where I am today is the result of a long journey. How did I get here where I am now? Before I tell my story I want to put outa few questions and, while I tell my story, I want you to think about what I say in relation to these questions. These questions are: When am I literate? How am Iliterate? DOUBLE POWER: ENGLISH LITERACY AND INDIGENOUS EDUCATION Why am I literate? and Who decides if I am literate or not? I grew up in critical times. It was a time of transition, with contemporary culture as well as traditional culture being accepted by my people. In this time of change my people wanted to keep control of their destiny. We needed to be the ones who made the decisions. To keep control of our destiny required a shift in thinking.It involved both acceptance and resistance. We had to take account of Western ideas, both positive ones and negative ones and accept the ones that would help us strengthen our culture. My education started off as traditional learning. From when I was a baby until I first went to schoolI had a traditional upbringing. Ilearned from my mother, my relations, by being with people and doing things with them. My traditional learning didn't stop when I started Western schooling in a mission school. I've kept up my traditional learning for my whole life. Going to school was, however, an interesting time for me.I was learning something foreign that I was intrigued by. This made me want to learn more about this foreign culture that I was curious about. Please note that the key word here is about. I wanted to learn ABOUT them, not become one of them. This was difficult in the assimilationist climate of that time. It was difficult to learn about Western things without feeling pressure to act like a Balanda.

  • The Value of Inclusion
    The value of inclusion Lesson plan description Australia is populated by a diverse range of people with varied backgrounds and understandings. In order for people to get along in a multicultural society, they may share values including a belief in equality, freedom and respect for one another. Understanding, tolerance and inclusion are also important. Students will explore some of these values through examining and thinking about examples of inclusion, exclusion and segregation in their own lives and in the broader community. Students will play a game and view a film clip on racial segregation in Australia in the 1950s. Students will research the Australian Freedom Rides and reflect on changing attitudes. Students will consider values they admire in another Australian and how they could enact these in their own life. Year levels Middle Childhood (8–11 years) Duration Approximately 50 minutes Note: research will incur additional time. Explicit values focus • Care and Compassion • Doing Your Best • Fair Go • Freedom • Respect • Responsibility • Understanding, Tolerance and Inclusion Key Learning Areas • Studies of Society and Environment • English • Technology Lesson plan Getting started Activity 1: Class game NOTE: the following game needs to be handled sensitively as children who have experienced exclusion in their lives may find it frustrating. Play a familiar class game, modified with ‘new’ rules so that one group of students has additional restrictions imposed upon them. For example, play ‘tips’, but those ‘in’ must tip the other person on both shoulders and both elbows before they can be in. After a couple of minutes of playing, seat the students and ask for their comments on the new game.

Mobile app±based (mobile health [mHealth]) interventions present a novel approach to both reducing stress and improving well-being. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a self-guided mobile app±based psychological intervention for people providing care to family or friends with a physical or mental disability. Methods: In a randomized, single-blind, controlled trial, 183 caregivers recruited through the web were randomly allocated to either an intervention (n=73) or active control (n=110) condition. The intervention app contained treatment modules combining daily self-monitoring with third-wave (mindfulness-based) cognitive-behavioral therapies, whereas the active control app contained only self-monitoring features.

  • Developing a Both-Ways Management Education Pedagogy
    _________________________________________________________ Developing a both-ways management education pedagogy from the key motivations of Aboriginal Australians _________________________________________________________ A thesis submitted by Daniel Henry Guilfoyle, BA. (Usyd), M. Psych. (WSU) Student Number: 11400712 In fulfilment of the award of Doctor of Philosophy, Faculty of Business, Charles Sturt University January, 2016 A B S T R A C T This thesis investigates the key motivations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians in an attempt to identify factors that need to be taken into consideration in designing a pedagogical framework for management education for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. The choice of topic was influenced by the Aboriginal Employment Strategy’s successes in assisting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander job searchers, foreshadowing increasing numbers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employees reaching supervisory and management levels in the Australian workforce. At the same time, concerns had been raised about the significant number of withdrawals by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students from traditional management courses on the basis of their perceived irrelevance. The Journal of Management Education in 2011 dedicated an issue exclusively to this topic, suggesting it needed urgent attention. A qualitative research approach was chosen, utilising Dialogic Exchange, the only Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australian model available, coupled with its nearest fit in Western terms, the case study method. The analysis of results relied on ideas from critical theory, narrative analysis and discourse analysis. The focus was placed on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander motivations in order to understand both positive and negative influences on the level of academic course completions.

The song was written by Greg Macainsh and performed by the Tony Catz Band. The lyrics that follow are provisional - the band’s singer screeches as much as sings, in the approved Jimmy Barnes hard rock style (that’s not a criticism, just an observation).

  • Marriageability and Indigenous Representation in the White Mainstream Media in Australia
    Marriageability and Indigenous Representation in the White Mainstream Media in Australia PhD Thesis 2007 Andrew King BA (Hons) Supervisor: Associate Professor Alan McKee Creative Industries, Queensland University of Technology Abstract By means of a historical analysis of representations, this thesis argues that an increasing sexualisation of Indigenous personalities in popular culture contributes to the reconciliation of non-Indigenous and Indigenous Australia. It considers how sexualised images and narratives of Indigenous people, as they are produced across a range of film, television, advertising, sport and pornographic texts, are connected to a broader politics of liberty and justice in the present postmodern and postcolonial context. By addressing this objective the thesis will identify and evaluate the significance of ‘banal’ or everyday representations of Aboriginal sexuality, which may range from advertising images of kissing, television soap episodes of weddings, sultry film romances through to more evocatively oiled-up representations of the pin- up-calendar variety. This project seeks to explore how such images offer possibilities for creating informal narratives of reconciliation, and engendering understandings of Aboriginality in the media beyond predominant academic concerns for exceptional or fatalistic versions. i Keywords Aboriginality Indigenous Marriageability Reconciliation Popular Culture Sexuality Relationships Interracial Public Sphere Mediasphere Celebrity ii Table of Contents Introduction ………………………………………………………………………….
