New Aboriginal teachers' experiences an undiscovered landscape / [citation] : Lorenzo Cherubini - 2008

Although teacher preparation, induction, and new teachers' beliefs in mainstream education have been the subject of much scholarly investigation, little of this research has focused on Aboriginal educators. The preparation and induction of Aboriginal educators is critical to educational achievement among Aboriginal peoples in Canada. Aboriginal children deserve exemplary and skilled teachers who are responsive to their individual learning needs and sensitive to the cultural communities to which they belong. However, few initiatives address new teachers' experiences that are targeted at the challenges of being a novice Aboriginal educator. Inadequate attention has been given to Aboriginal teachers' perspectives on the educational landscape.
