A work book to assist students in this class working at home.

Aboriginal Studies is designed to foster intellectual, social and moral development by enabling students to think critically about the historical and contemporary experiences of Aboriginal peoples. Through this study students will develop a heightened understanding and appreciation of the concepts of social justice and shared histories, and will critically examine their role as active and informed citizens.
Aboriginal history and culture are fundamental to the development of Australian identity.
Aboriginal Studies acknowledges the contribution of Aboriginal cultures and communities to Australian society.
Aboriginal Studies seeks to provide a body of knowledge that is both accurate and unbiased.
The course will provide students with ways of detecting and analysing bias in representations of Aboriginal peoples.
Aboriginal Studies is a unique experience for both Aboriginal students and non-Aboriginal students. Aboriginal students are provided with an opportunity for cultural affirmation and positive educational experiences while non-Aboriginal students are able to ‘learn together’ with Aboriginal peoples and communities. All students are encouraged to take an active role in the process of reconciliation.
For all students, Aboriginal Studies provides a flexible structure to prepare for further education, training and employment. Students will develop analytical skills, the ability to pursue independent research and the ability to develop coherent arguments.
