| Description | This TQI-registered professional learning opportunity offers three workshop sessions for teachers that bring together Indigenous Story practices with the disciplines of creative writing and literature. Story Ground uses storying and writing to provide participants with opportunities to engage with contemporary and traditional Indigenous knowledge, cultural experience, and creative practice. Story Ground is based in culturally grounded and culturally responsive pedagogy. The course is designed to help teachers support both student wellbeing and academic growth. It is aligned to the Australian Curriculum Achievement Standards for English, the General Capabilities of Engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures, and Sustainability. Through exploring the concept of perspectivism, teachers will be supported to work with Indigenous content in the classroom in a culturally responsive manner. They will experience Indigenous pedagogical practices through the workshops and content, and will be encouraged to embed this at their schools. In the final workshop, teachers will bring an example of their practice to share with others. Please note, you need to attend all three nights/modules in the session for course completion.
