Beyond the Content - Embedding Indigenous Ways into the Classroom

Are you ready to transform your classroom?

This online Teacher Professional Development workshop on 5 September will focus on embedding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives in the classroom.

Key topics include:

• Understanding Country: Learn the significance of Country as the first teacher.

• Translating Two Worlds: Compare Euro-centric and Indigenous worldviews and how this impacts on student learning.

• Shifting the Lens: Discover Indigenous pedagogies and how to apply them.

• Where to From Here: Gain resources and strategies to engage authentically with Indigenous content.

The workshop is divided into two sessions (9:00 am - 11:00 am and 11:30 am - 1:00 pm) with a half-hour break. Participants will receive a PDF workbook, plus a set of Aboriginal Topic Cards, and Yarning Cards (valued at $67.90), which will be shipped ahead of time.

The goal is to equip teachers to create culturally inclusive classrooms using First Nations knowledge and perspectives.

About the facilitator: 

Tammy Baart

As a proud Boorooberongal Dharug woman I educate, advocate for and enable all individuals to be empowered to exceed their own expectations. Over two decades of executive educational leadership experience has led to an ignited passion and drive to find the gaps in systems so all individuals are provided with the access and opportunity to succeed. Through honouring my culture to decolonise ways of being, doing and knowing, I work to create human-centred and sustainable solutions that leave a legacy everyone can be proud of.

Working across various industries, I bring people together through connection, collaboration and capitalising upon collective wisdom to create transformative workplace cultures through custom learning, development and training needs and building Cultural Intelligence.

“Tammy is a bold and courageous Indigenous woman who has the foresight and vision to push herself and in turn those she works with to greater heights. Understanding the bigger picture while knowing the little things matter is her superpower. The compassion and love she puts into the work she does with young people is contagious and endless.”

Riley Callie Resources is dedicated to amplifying First Nations voices in the education space and is proud to partner with Blak Ignited to bring you this workshop. Participants will also receive a special discount code for our online shop of Indigenous educational resources.
