About

A narrative about experiences of schooling, higher education study, teaching, and the process of postgraduate study leading to a career in research. The presentation will include personal accounts of challenges and successes.

Presenter

Dr Tracy Woodroffe is a 2024 ACSES First Nations Fellow, Senior Lecturer, and Researcher with the Northern Institute. She is a local Warumungu Luritja educator with extensive teaching experience and an Early Career Researcher. Dr Woodroffe's current research aims to assist education providers in understanding Indigenous engagement with teacher education, resulting in a targeted approach to increase First Nations enrolments in teacher education at CDU and strengthening Australia's capacity in higher education practice and implementation of equity issues. Her research experience and focus are on educational pedagogy, identity, Indigenous perspectives, and the use of Indigenous Knowledge in educational contexts.
