For Indigenous students and teachers alike, formal teaching and learning
occurs in contested places. In Indigenous Education, leading scholars in
contemporary Indigenous education from North America, New Zealand, and
Hawaii disentangle aspects of colonialism from education to advance
alternative philosophies of instruction. From multiple disciplines,
contributors explore Indigenous education from theoretical and applied
perspectives and invite readers to embrace new, informed ways of
schooling. Part of a growing body of research, this is an exciting,
powerful volume for Indigenous and non-Indigenous teachers, researchers,
policy makers, and scholars, and a must-read for anyone who wants to
understand the contested spaces of contemporary education.
