Fiona Nicholl has adopted a different approach to teaching race relations or indigenous studies in the classroom. She calls it critical whiteness theory and the focus here is on “exploring whiteness as a problematic, critical whiteness theory reverses the tendency of white academics of every political persuasion in Australia to focus investigation on Aboriginal ‘issues’ or ‘problems.” (Nicholl, 2004). This seems to fits a ‘culturally responsive form of teaching where the focus is not on the other but includes a study of white culture and values in the context of humanity and places all subjects on an equal footing where they look at one another to gain a greater understanding of one another.
