of Davenport Adult Education centre, Reports of the Department
of Further Education and a research project carried out on

Relevant documentation, specifically referring to the life

of Aboriginal people in the Adelaide area, is found chiefly in the
writings of Gale, (1964, 1972),. Gale and Wundersitz, (1982), Inglis, (1961,
1962), accounts of the aims and objectives of the Aboriginal Community
College, and of the South Australian Institute of Technology Task Force.

(2) Interviews with urban reality definers

Interview questions*were designed to provide
information to map the worlds of Aboriginal people. Questions
concerning the structure of groups were based in the writing of
2

Sorokin . Further questions were designed to stimulate rudimentary
theorizing: theorizing about Australia as a multi-cultural
society, the relationship of Aboriginal people with mainstream
society, the formation of Aboriginal groups; theorizing about
identity, success, schooling, deviancy, delinquency; theorizing
about the meaning of self-determination and the future of
Aboriginal people.

(3) Interviews with non-Aboriginal school staff

In addition to the questions asked of reality-definers, (who
included Principals and school counsellors), a second series of
questions was addressed to Principals and counsellors. The questions
related to the theorizing of the school about Aboriginal identity,
about efforts made to foster the structuring of Aboriginal identity
by the school and theorizing about Aboriginal juvenile delinquency.
