Description
The thesis argues that measurement learning, when adjusted to reflect the cultural and linguistic needs of the student cohort, can be culturally inclusive. The study emphasises the importance of contextualising measurement curriculum and pedagogic practice to students’ interests to promote student agency in their learning. The local knowledge, understanding, and perspectives of Utopia Eastern Anmatyerr and Alyawarr participants were privileged to determine the appropriate ways to contextualise concepts related to Akatyerr (desert raisin) with concepts of measurement. The thesis explains the changes made to hear students’ voices to enable their interests to inform pedagogical decision-making and their measurement learning.
