Extract

The Northern Territory Department of Education was given a unique opportunity to implement an Aboriginal Schools Curriculum Materials Project (ASCMP) with funding from the Department of Employment, Education and Training (DEET) and the implementation of the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Education Policy (NAEP). One package of resources that has resulted from this initiative is known as Getting Going with Genres. A feature of the development of these resources was the involvement of large numbers of Aboriginal people in writing workshops in Northern Territory Aboriginal communities.
