Description
In the crucial discussion of Aboriginal education in Canada| there are two distinct schools of thought: parallelism and integrationism. For the first time in one volume| leading thinkers on both sides share their perspectives| allowing readers to examine this complex and emotionally charged issue from all angles.
Parallelism argues for Aboriginal self-determination and independent schools with Aboriginal values at their core| while integrationism advocates improving Aboriginal educational achievement within the conventional system. Both sides share the same goal| however: supporting and helping to realize the vast store of untapped potential in Aboriginal communities. Everyone agrees that Aboriginal education in Canada urgently needs improvement. A vigorous and informed debate can only speed the search for solutions.
