Indigenous students expectations of higher education

Abstract

We are presenting an advance of the Project “Trainer for professional to and for indigenous education. Challenge for academic des-colonization in the Indigenous Education Program at the UPN”. From qualitative-interpretative perspective and an open questionnaire, forma­tive expectations from students, knowledge and practices from their teachers are analized, from concepts like higher education des-colonization, agency, based on a subject-centered approaches and reflectiveness among peers. Students expect to perform in an active way in their training, develop academic abilities and achieve the effort to recognize themselves as educative subject and their communities.
