Regenerating Indigenous literacy resourcefulness: A middle school intervention

Literacy Learning: The Middle Years
Volume 22 Issue 1 (Jan 2014)

Abstract: This paper shares the process and outcomes of implementing a literacy initiative in a remote Indigenous community. The Pocket Book production involved genre-based constructions of Indigenous student knowledge of country, nutritional value of bush foods, and first aid treatments for venomous bites and stings. The process provides a model for other similar contexts.
