8-Ways of Learning Aboriginal Framework Stamps

Tell a story – Make a plan – Think and do – Draw it – Take it outside – Try a new way – Watch first, then do – Share it with others.

The 8-Ways of learning Aboriginal pedagogy framework is expressed as eight interconnected pedagogies involving narrative-driven learning, visualised learning processes, hands-on/reflective techniques, use of symbols/metaphors, land-based learning, indirect/synergistic logic, modelled/scaffolded genre mastery, and connectedness to community however every place, every People, have their own unique pedagogies. 

These 8 simple symbols are merely a starting point for dialogue. Each school engages in a different way and produces its own unique frameworks for Aboriginal education through dialogue with the community about local ways of doing things.

The symbols form such an integral part of the 8 Ways teachings therefore these stamps are a great teaching aid, something that the students will easily identify with.

The 8 Ways framework is a NSW Department of Education initiative. Ownership of Indigenous Knowledge works belong to Individuals and groups. Permission sought from the original source is a requirement, out of courtesy. Examples of work from communities and individuals guided by this framework should be always respected.

Re-Inking

It is extremely important that the correct ink is used when re-inking your stamps or stamp pad. Failure to do so could result in permanent damage to your stamps so instruction on how to re-ink or change your pad are included with the stamp kits. It is also advisable to store your stamps out of direct sunlight to reduce the chance of the ink evaporating & Self Inking machines need the Ink for Stamp Pads.
