    It cannot be denied that our indigenous population has suffered severely since the colonisation of Australia. While the movement towards reconciliation is undoubtedly gaining widespread support, unfortunately many misconceptions are still prevalent and the future of many indigenous Australians is still uncertain. Disadvantage is still experienced by an unacceptable number of the population. Statistically, indigenous people have poorer health, opportunities for education, life expectancy, employment options and the majority live in the remote areas of Australia. As well as this

  • Film Review: Jim Collin's Example Of A Bus

    434 Words  | 2 Pages

    Another concept we observed in the movie is Jim Collin’s example of a bus. One of the first action Mr. Clark took as he was hired to be the new school principle was to get the wrong people off the bus-- he expelled the students who were identified as drug dealers and troublemakers to ensure students the optimal learning environment. Mr. Clark also made sure those who stayed ‘on the bus’ understand why and how he would make the change: he wanted the students to have a good future and empowered them to work hard and prove to the world that they are not inferior. During the inspirational speech Mr. Clark gave to the school assembly before the skills test, he said “And I've got a message out there for those people who have abandoned you and written you off. You are NOT inferior.

  • Grant Bell Observation

    252 Words  | 2 Pages

    My principal, Dr. Grant Bell, is aware of how his presence in the school building make a difference for the teachers, students, and visitors that enter the school and therefore he is intentional with his actions. He walks the halls during transition times in order to interact with the students, but also to tell the teachers that he is grateful for the time and dedication to the school. Many times he can be seen in the lunchroom visiting with the students to hear about their day. To some, this may seem like a small, irrelevant task but to the people in the school, it goes a long way. His effort to tell everyone how he is proud and thankful to spend each day with them can often be the difference between a good day and a bad day.

    As an administrator of Valley Ridge High School, we have to push the students and show them that we also care about their education. If the student does not see that we care then our model will not work. Teachers being confident that students are capable of learning will help students to be confident in themselves. If you, the teachers, do not believe in your students, who will? Students feed off the energy teachers put into their job.

    Then, we created a poll to collect students’ feedback regarding their experiences and possible improvements for their school district. In November, I was a panelist at the BCSTA Annual Trustee Academy and discussed my journey of learning about school trustees, the importance of mental health resources, and also empowering our First Nations students through the education system. Through my experience, I overcame my fear of stage fright when I realized what a positive impact one voice can have. In Grade 9, I started guitar lessons, which helped me express myself and expand my comfort

  • Aboriginal Graduation Rates Analysis

    1357 Words  | 6 Pages

    Although McKay (2012) states, “the last year for which Canadian teen pregnancy rate data is available is 2006” (page 162), teen pregnancy is still a prominent issue in Canadian society. Having a child unexpectedly can trigger a range of emotions and new issues previously not considered, and can therefore push an individual’s schooling to the backburner. Lack of motivation can come from mental illness, which can lead to decline in social life, and possibly bullying, which can heighten feelings of hurt and lack of motivation. Lack of motivation is not always an underachiever problem, it can also come from students who are not being challenged enough, which shows that lack of motivation is relevant on both ends of the scale. All of these factors contribute in some way to low graduation rates among Aboriginal learners, as shown in

    The diversity of student backgrounds, abilities and learning styles makes each person unique in the way he or she reacts to information. The intersection of diverse student backgrounds and active learning needs a comfortable, positive environment in which to take root. Dr. King continues by explaining, “Education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals.” From back then to today’s society, kids are failing because they lack those morals that they need to succeed.

    I had the pleasure of visiting with Mrs. Cooke’s fifth grade class during my clinical experiences. Mrs. Cooke has a great rapport with her students and has very little difficult actively engaging students in learning. One of the “takeaways” from my visit references the students’ and teachers’ commitment to the principles of “The Leader in Me”. From a school-wide perspective, East Elementary School does not practice the traditional positive behavior interventions. Instead, the administration has adopted the ideals and principles behind “The Leader in Me”.
