This document represents the culmination of many years of consultation with a very wide range of
Aboriginal educators and Aboriginal people in the community. It will be regularly updated and
available on the website www.aboriginaleducation.sa.edu.au together with a wide selection of other
support materials.
Whilst increasing numbers of Aboriginal learners are now achieving academic success in courses as
diverse as medicine, science, teaching, management, anthropology, archaeology, natural resource
management and more, Aboriginal learners are, as a group, achieving at rates far below other
learners.
Aboriginal cultures, experiences and values are still not sufficiently valued by many educators and
consequently many parents and carers of today's Aboriginal learners have negative feelings about the
education system. The past cannot be changed but there is much that present and future educators
can do, and which some are doing, to assist Aboriginal learners to achieve equal outcomes with other
learners. A range of strategies are included in this paper.

services
The Department acknowledges the strength, courage and
survival of Aboriginal peoples, their status as traditional

Terms to avoid as they may offend include coloured, half-caste, fullblood, tribe, corroboree.
Be aware that the didgeridoo is traditionally an instrument from northern
Australia but is now a contemporary instrument throughout Australia. To
be respectful of Aboriginal culture, it should not be played by girls.

The terms invasion and settlement can raise strong emotions but use
critical thinking with learners to explain that invaders often invade then
leave whereas settlers stay, ultimately dispossessing original peoples.
Terms used by Aboriginal people to refer to themselves can include the
following but check locally before using them.

Aboriginal art
When teaching about Aboriginal art, show learners examples from
different parts of Australia of traditional art (canvas, bark, bodies,
artefacts, rocks) which tells Dreaming stories as well as contemporary
art which may or may not tell a story.

Adelaide Fringe, Come Out Festival or to participate in Crocfest or
Wakakirri.
Learn about diversity of traditional and contemporary Aboriginal and
Torres Strait Islander arts throughout Australia using recommended
resources
Understand the link between traditional Aboriginal art and the Dreaming,
ie story, particular environment and its features, human behaviour and
spiritual beliefs and law
Use knowledge gained about Aboriginal arts, develop symbols to tell an
important story using learners' own symbols through visual art, dance,
drama, song and/or media
View Moorditj CD Rom (sent to all schools) to find out about Aboriginal
people in Arts
Read about Yvonne Koolmatrie, Aboriginal fibre artist on
www.aboriginaleducation.sa.edu.au/pages/learners , then Life stories
Find out about Aboriginal people working in multi media and television
Research websites containing information about Aboriginal people in
Arts
Appreciate the antiquity of Aboriginal arts and ways they have adapted
and changed and are valued and issues surrounding contemporary
Aboriginal arts, eg copyright infringement
Carefully observe animals and birds in nature and symbolise their
appearance, behaviours, tracks, habitats and movements through visual
art, dance and drama. To contact Aboriginal performance groups go to
http://www.tourism.sa.gov.au/WebFiles/Publications/Publications/PDFDo
cument/SA_Experiences_Indigenous_fact_sheet.pdf
Learn about careers for Aboriginal people in the arts such as painters,
illustrators, curators, film makers, actors, directors, set and costume
designers, storytellers, writers, dancers, choreographers, musicians,
singers, songwriters, interviewers, presenters, researchers through
books, videos, information technology and personal communication,
including places where further education and training is available

relevant sections of the Aboriginal perspectives across the curriculum
folder. Both can be borrowed from the Aboriginal Education Resource
Centre.

Design technology
Value traditional knowledge regarding appropriate and sustainable
technology, using only what is needed, using local natural materials.
Today, many Aboriginal crafts continue use of locally available natural
materials, like mats and baskets made from hard wearing sedge grass
found along creeks and soakages.
Read relevant sections of the Aboriginal perspectives across the
curriculum folder.
View the videotape The Aboriginal art of string making with Rick
Roser Highly recommended video for all ages. It shows Rick, from SE
Queensland, making string first out of the inner bark of a wattle tree,
though he says Kurrajong is the best tree. Such string was used to make
nets for catching birds, fish and mammals. It is rolled on the thigh then
plied. Rick then makes string out of his own hair uses a simple spindle
made out of two sticks. The Aboriginal art of Fire-Making is another
video from the same source.
A good video to show when using the A piece of string unit of work in
the Aboriginal perspectives across the curriculum folder. It would
also complement a before or after visit to the South Australian Museum
to see examples of string make throughout Aboriginal Australia.
Appropriate technology is used at Ernabella in the north-west of South
Australia, where the Anangu women use Indonesian designed tjantings
to place wax on silk and cotton fabric to make beautiful walka (designs)
such as on this silk scarf by Angkuna. This information and more about
technology and visual arts can be found in the DECS book Aboriginal
artists in South Australia sent to all DECS schools in 2006.
Identify and collect materials then participate, preferably with Aboriginal
and/or Torres Strait Islander people, in making traditional items such as
twine, baskets, mats, wooden implements, fishing spears, building of
model size shelters, tanning or otherwise treating animal skins in order
to appreciate traditional technological expertise, knowledge and skills.
Visit campsites, museums or Aboriginal community centres, preferably
with Aboriginal people, to learn about traditional and contemporary
technology and issues.
Design websites, databases, displays relevant to Aboriginal culture, eg
based on suggestions in Ngarrindjeri people and environment: past,
present and future (DECS 2001). This book was sent to all primary
schools but is also relevant to secondary schools.

and gyroscopic precession. Plans can be downloaded for making 3
kinds of boomerangs, solid wood, plywood and cardboard.
