Abstract
This thesis is concerned with conceptualizing the Social World of Learning of Australian Indigenous postgraduates to determine the quality of research training provided for them. The learning experiences of a group of twenty Indigenous postgraduates in eight Australian universities across ten campuses co-operatively contributed to the information base of this Study. Indigenous entry into the Australian postgraduate sector of education is a recent event, consequently little is known about the area inasmuch as only one Study exists. I used a Democratic Evaluation process to find the answer to the research focus question which guided this Study: How do Australian Indigenous postgraduates experience learning research?
