Low rates of success and high dropout rates have contributed to the continuing exclusion of indigenous students from higher education and from better opportunities in life. This book provides guidance to teachers and student teachers in bringing about change that is needed in the education of indigenous students if they are going to succeed in school at the same rates as other students in Australia."
