The first few chapters address university studies, discussing online learning options, incorporation of non-discipline-specific skills instruction, and resilience and retention factors in recent teaching and nursing graduates. Following that are chapters on the founding of a small regional medical school, fostering student engagement through use of the Pedagogical Content Knowledge model, racial tolerance at the secondary school level, and swimming instruction for primary school students. The last several contributions discuss indigenous education, including a critique of the effectiveness of current targeted programs, exploration of the divide between mainstream schooling and support for indigenous communities, and an analysis of the Design and Evaluation Matrix for University Outreach program.
