Aseron, Johnnie; Greymorning, S. Neyooxet; Miller, Adrian; Wilde, Simon
Contemporary Issues in Education Research, v6 n4 p409-416 2013
Indigenous experiences, as found within traditional ways and cultural practices, are an acknowledgement of traditional methods for sharing, learning, and collective knowledge development and maintenance. The application of Cultural Safety Circles can help provide a collective space where definitions for cultural and educational exchange can take place and be identified. It is through this application that a discussion is presented on how the inherent issue of cultural safety, as it pertains to participation in higher education, can be explored to a deeper understanding.
