SCS701 Engaging Effectively with Aboriginal People. Additional Information: Referencing (in the correct Harvard style, and including page numbers for paraphrasing as well as direct quotes) is essential and is weighted heavily in this assignment, along with the quality of your analysis of the reading and overall argument. Try to use the given articles as much as you can. Structure is very important and have a look on Rubric. Question: How does racism in all its forms and white privilege prevent social justice and respect for Aboriginal people, and what could you do to address these forces? Things to remember Always capital ‘A’ for Aboriginal or non-Aboriginal. Aboriginal is not a noun, it is an adjective. Don’t use ‘the Aboriginals’; use Aboriginal people. Always use ‘white’ in single quotes except for white privilege or whiteness – not all non-Aboriginal people are ‘white’ and ‘race’ is a social construction. Avoid generalizing – e.g. non-Aboriginal people believe Aboriginal culture is primitive and dysfunctional. Use many, often, some, may, can, etc. to qualify statements. Major general problem – lack of adequate referencing – most papers needed more even when there were some provided. Also use more sources You MUST use page numbers in in-text references for this course. For paraphrasing as well as direct quotes: only exception is when a website which can’t be accessed as a .pdf and therefore doesn’t have page numbers. Don’t use pages 6-20 or 330-350 – use specific pages that actually contain what you are talking about. Avoid use of ‘this week’s readings’ wherever possible and use of “the article’ or the title of the article: ‘It’s enough to make you sick”: the impact of racism of Aboriginal Australians … ‘ use Larson et al (2007). Don’t write ‘In the reading by Cox’ just write Cox (2007: page #) argues that …. Don’t list five or six authors of one article in in-text referencing. Use et al. Don’t use et al. if there are only two authors. Don’t put journal name or other unnecessary info in your text, that’s what the bibliography/reference list is for, and why it has to be in full and correct. Don’t use initials in in-text author reference, only use the surname. Common problems with sentence structure: lots of long, multi-part sentences that lose their meaning, become disjointed and confusing because they lack the grammatical structure to sustain them. Use short, clear sentences to avoid the problem. Remember to be critical of the reading, the lectures, David, and yourself. By critical I mean – identify what is being argued, on what basis/evidence, using what theories or concepts, how persuasive or useful is it, what is left out or downplayed, what alternative interpretations are available, what are the implications of the argument e.gfor professional practice or personal ethics. It’s usually not enough just to say Briskman ‘says’ without comment.
