End of Introduction

I feel that the question were based more on people currently working in the education system and
as I am a current student and not working in a school it was rather difficult to answer these question.
I have worked in the hospitality trade for many years and working with many different people and
cultures including indigenous people. Doing so has helped me better understand the culture but
from the perspective of indigenous adults not adolescents. This perspective is what I am hoping to
learn and achieve from this module.
