Abstract

In Semester 2, 1986, a group of 2nd year Aboriginal and Islander Diploma of Teaching (AITEP-ECE) students embarked on a research project, designed to be a learning experience, which could generate further understandings of concepts within Child Development, Child Learning and Sociology. The project focused on the child within the five to eight year age bracket.
