Culturally Responsive and Indigenous Language Strategies: Findings From a Scoping Review


Abstract This scoping review examined the existing research to identify culturally responsive and Indigenous language strategies. A five-stage scoping review methodology was applied to a multiple database search, and a web-based literature review software program was used to organize and review sources, resulting in a total of 33 sources. Data were charted from these sources and 38 culturally responsive strategies and 23 Indigenous language strategies were identified. These strategies, which include the highest strength of strategy codes based on source design qualities, are presented in a preliminary evidence map. There remains a scarcity of culturally responsive and Indigenous language intervention research with Indigenous children. Most of the strategies identified through this scoping review lacked strength to recommend their use universally, but they still may be useful and critically important in meeting the needs of Indigenous children and their families. A discussion on strategies, the Indigenous Connectedness Framework, and an abundance model is provided.
