Special Issue on Indigenous Education
Indigenous education specifically focuses on teaching indigenous knowledge, models, methods, and
content within formal or non-formal educational systems. The growing
recognition and use of indigenous education methods can be a response to the
erosion and loss of indigenous knowledge through the processes of colonialism,
globalization, and modernity. Indigenous communities are able to "reclaim
and revalue their languages and traditions, and in so doing, improve the
educational success of indigenous students", thus ensuring their survival
as a culture.
In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line
researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on indigenous education. Potential topics include, but are not limited
to:
-
Indigenous and formal education
-
Decolonizing indigenous education
-
Living by indigenous knowledge
-
Importance of indigenous knowledge
-
Indigenous people and sustainable development
-
Educational gap
Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective
authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through
the journal’s Paper Submission System.
Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue”
under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field

should be chosen during your submission.
