Klappentext zu „Higher Degree by Research “
This open access book provides insights from Indigenous higher degree research (HDR) students on supervision practices in an Australian context. It examines findings from qualitative studies conducted with Indigenous HDR students from different academic disciplines, enrolled higher education institutions across Australia, and supervisors of Indigenous HDR students. Six types of data and their thematic analyses are presented, to understand the needs and experiences of both Indigenous HDR students and supervisors of Indigenous HDR students. This book also unpacks assumptions and commonly held beliefs about Indigenous HDR students, and shares what Indigenous HDRs report they need to experience success in higher education. It reports the experiences of supervisors of Indigenous HDR students, and explore further opportunities which enhance the higher education experiences of Indigenous HDR students. This book also suggests how successful relationships between Indigenous HDR students, and their supervisors may be fostered, and aims to be a useful resource for Indigenous peoples wishing to pursue higher education, and HDR supervisors in countries with Indigenous populations.

Professor Peter J. Anderson is from the Walpiri and Murinpatha First Nations in the Northern Territory of Australia. His research theorises the understandings of the organisational value of academic freedom in Australian universities and also more broadly in the polar south. Professor Anderson's research areas include organisational leadership, Indigenous peoples' education, and teacher and academic professional development. His research has been funded through Office of Learning and Teaching (OLT) grants. One grant investigated the improvement of initial teacher education providers' capacity to prepare preservice teachers to be confident, competent and culturally responsive to work in remote locations with high Indigenous populations. The second grant examined how to best engage and partner with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander parents and community to improve student outcomes. Professor Anderson is also the lead Chief Investigator on an Australian Research Council (ARC) funded Special Research Initiative (SRI) titled 'National Indigenous Research and Knowledges Network' (NIRAKN). He has recently completed a research project that explored the needs and experiences of Indigenous higher degree by research (HDR) students and supervisors.Dr Levon Blue (Nimki Nibi Kwe) is an Anishinaabe kwe (woman) who is a member of the Beausoleil First Nations (G'Chimnissing) who is originally from Canada and lives on Turrbal and Yugara country in Queensland, Australia.
