8 Aboriginal Ways of Learning
This Indigenous pedagogy framework is expressed as eight interconnected pedagogies. They involve narrative-driven learning, visualised learning processes, hands-on/reflective techniques, use of symbols/metaphors, land-based learning, indirect/synergistic logic, modelled/scaffolded genre mastery, and connectedness to community.
