hi all if anyone could help im stuck on a few question?
i need to give more detail.
Question 2
Using your research skills, learning materials and own experience, describe two features of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families that should be considered in in an early childhood education and care environment. How do these features compare with the experiences of other Australian families?
Answer:
Staff need to be aware of history and culture, and include it in play and learing.
centres should be welcoming and close to there indigenous community.
They should have they same experiences as every family in the centre no one should be favoured everyone has is equal.
Question 5
Provide one example of cultural bias that could affect how you treat the Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander families of a child at the Garung Early Learning Centre.
Answer:
Discrimination in a cultural context refers to showing prejudice towards a certain group. Most of the time, discrimination involves the unfair labelling and treatment of others and is based on both stigma and stereotyping.
Question 6
Identify two situations where you may need to engage a cultural broker (or liaison officer) to improve communication and prevent misunderstanding or confusion.
Answer:
A cultural broker can play a crucial role at the start of the research process (what do you mean by the research process?) bridging the cultural divide to facilitate a smooth introduction and interaction between the researcher and the Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander community.
The cultural broker may then only be involved on a needs basis (what is the needs basis – when would this be?) however the involvement may be ongoing throughout the research process especially if there is need for negotiation or mediation.
Question 8.4. Encourage self- determination and community control at Garung.
Answer;
Self determination is a process as well as a collective right exercised by peoples rather than individuals. The right to self determination is the right to make decisions. The practical exercise of self determination is central to Aboriginal health. It underpins cultural, community, family and individual well being. Aboriginal self determination and responsibility lie at the heart of Aboriginal community control in the provision of primary health care services.
