Abstract | The concept of Indigenous perspectives is multi-layered and complex; it is greater than teaching content and requires cultural and values knowledge about one’s self and others. With this in mind, teacher educators created a highly structured but content-free learning environment for secondary pre-service teachers to inquire into embedding Indigenous perspectives across the curriculum. This chapter presents an innovative project whereby secondary pre-service teachers inquired into Indigenous perspectives in an online learning environment. Through this online collaborative initiative, these pre-service teachers had the opportunity to engage with their peers, practicing teachers, teacher educators and other educators to explore their questions, address their assumptions and gain insights into how to design and facilitate learning that honours Indigenous perspectives in all discipline areas. |
