Abstract
We use a narrative inquiry methodology to consider tensions surrounding Indigenising school mathematics. This research takes place in a Cree bilingual school in a Western Canadian prairie province conducted with three Cree elementary school teachers. We contemplate ways that: Indigenisation and notions of success in education can be Eurocentric; what is sometimes taken-up under the label of Indigenising school mathematics can be a colonial practice that is not actually Indigenising school mathematics in ways that support or coincide with teachers’ cultural identities; Indigenous worldviews are still at risk of Eurocentric colonisation; and Indigenous worldviews are complete and should not be scrutinised by the Eurocentric gaze.
期刊介绍：
Published in association with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies Unit, The University of Queensland, the Australian Journal of Indigenous Education is an internationally refereed journal which publishes papers and reports on the theory, method, and practice of Indigenous education. The journal welcomes articles that ground theoretical reflections and discussions in qualitative and quantitative studies, as well as examples of best practice with a focus on Indigenous education. While AJIE has a particular focus on Indigenous education in Australia and Oceania, research which explores educational contexts and experiences around the globe are welcome. AJIE seeks to foster debate between researchers, government, and community groups on the shifting paradigms, problems, and practical outcomes of Indigenous education.
