Description
Book SynopsisA timely assessment of a successful initiative to support Aboriginal cultural ways and worldviews in one Ontario high school.
Trade ReviewImportantly, [this] book not only tells a story of Aboriginal students in public education systems but also situates the narrative within a broader socio-historical context that serves to provide the reader with significant insights into how the education system in Canada has failed Aboriginal youth ... Cherubini’s book offers a significant contribution to the landscape of Aboriginal education, opportunities to make further advances in this field, and expands on specific areas related to learning in order to provide increased clarity into the nature of how Aboriginal students learn most effectively. -- Gabrielle Lindstrom
