Building on rural knowledges to unlock the potential of rural students

该项目旨在促进对农村学生带给学校的独特知识的理解，并制定以这些农村知识为基础的教学实践，以释放这一庞大学生群体的潜力。该项目涉及与农村小学、教师、学生和社区合作，以确定农村知识，详细研究课堂实践，并制定可持续的教学实践，帮助学生将农村知识与学校知识联系起来。预期成果包括一个以地方为基础的教学实践和资源框架，这将使农村学校教育、教师教育以及对国家未来财富和福利至关重要的社区教育受益。

This project aims to advance understanding of the distinctive knowledges that rural students bring to school and develop teaching practices that build on these rural knowledges to unlock the potential of this significant student population. The project involves collaborating with rural primary schools, teachers, students and communities to identify rural knowledges, study classroom practices in detail, and develop sustainable teaching practices that help students connect rural knowledges and school knowledge. Expected outcomes include a framework of place-based teaching practices and resources that will benefit rural schooling, teacher education, and the education of communities crucial to the nation’s future wealth and welfare.
