Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract This systematic review is a rigorous analysis of Australian literature that identifies the factors (barriers and enablers) that impact non-Indigenous educators’ inclusion of First Nations' content in Australian schooling. Understanding the barriers and enablers to pedagogical inclusion are an important elements to upholding the various governmental policies and redressing education inequities in the settler-colonial Australian context. Key databases, specifically Informit, Web of Science, ProQuest, and Google Scholar were searched which resulted in n = 40 articles deemed to meet the in/exclusion criteria. Inductive thematic synthesis was conducted to provide valuable insights about the relevant barriers and enablers for non-Indigenous educators to include First Nations content in their practice. Findings indicate that lack of knowledge and prioritisation for First Nations content were significant epistemic barriers with standpoint and confidence identified as affective barriers. Enablers were identified as relationships with First Nations Peoples to inform shifts in pedagogical lens, as well as ongoing professional development and support. The results of this systematic review suggest that redressing the current state of Australian education requires tackling of multifaceted, complex, and interrelated factors to facilitating sustainable change so that all students have the opportunity to develop social-justice worldviews associated with valuing and truth-telling.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
