Postsecondary Education for American Indian and Alaska Natives: Higher Education for Nation Building and Self-Determination
Author: Bryan McKinley Jones Brayboy
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1118338839
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
After decades of national, state, and institutional initiatives to increase access to higher education, the college pipeline for American Indian and Alaska Native students remains largely unaddressed. As a result, little is known and even less is understood about the critical isues, conditions, and postsecondary transitions of this diverse group of students. Framed around the concept of tribal nation building, this monograph reviews the research on higher education for Indigenous peoples in the United States. It offers an analysis of what is currently known about postsecondary education among Indigenous students, Native communities, and tribal nations. Also offered is an overview of the concept of tribal nation building, with the suggestion that future research, policy, and practice center the ideas of nation building, sovereignty, Indigenous knowledge systems, and culturally responsive schooling.
