Focuses on the collaboration process among community groups, Aboriginal organizations and university researchers geared to improving retention and graduation rates among Aboriginal students.
Looks at the relationship between self-esteem and educational attainment, strategies that work for Aboriginal students and the changes needed to honour Aboriginal students’ culture, language, world view and knowledge.
Examines the concept of Aboriginal education as seen by four urban, inner-city elementary school principals and how they see it being put into practice in their schools.
