“As teachers we need to recognise that classrooms have the most power regarding the minimisation of cultural assumptions. By embedding Indigenous perspectives in the classroom, the opportunity to exoticise is removed because Indigenous culture is experienced by students as a natural part of learning. Additionally, familiarising one-self with the ongoing effects of colonisation is another step towards creating effective and equal partnerships. By understanding one’s own cultural position with regard to Indigenous Australians, cultural barriers can start to dissolve...” (p. 68).
Personally, I believe the classroom has the most power regarding the minimisation of cultural assumptions where everyone can understand a wide variety of national culture by textbooks, Internet and more others, even learn together with students from different cultural backgrounds. The interactivity is a relatively broad concept, and its meaning is different in different areas. So when we understand other cultures in depth such as the cultural background, local conditions and customs, way of thinking and more other not belong to theindigenous culture through the study of cultural knowledge and continue to contact and understand the cultural differences of other countries and connotations and use it, a kind of culture interactivity can be formed.For example, we must consider that the Oriental culture and western culture is different in our communication. To the people in western countries, it is likely to be considered impolite, unfriendly and poor upbringing when personal questions are asked such as “how old are you?” and “how much do you earn a month?” but to be appropriate to the oriental. Generally speaking, the westerners start a conversation like this sentence "What's the weather like?"
Because of the different cultural background, living environment, people's customs and way of thinking also exist certain differences. By embedding different cultural ideas in the classroom, the barrier between different cultures can start to dissolve.As teachers, we must improve our cultural literacy. We should through a variety of channels take the initiative to learn each country overview and cultural background to enrich our cultural knowledge and to improve our ability to distinguish between cultural differences. Ultimately, wecan achieveto understand the differences between different cultures and to interpret them for learners.As learners, we should learn cultural knowledge actively and continue to touch and learn about other countries connotation and cultural differences, so as to achieve a in-depth understanding of cultural background, customs, ways of thinking. What’s more, we should enhance the ability to use language through a variety of ways and ultimately form the cultural interactivity.
To do so, as a teacher, I need to improve my cultural literacy, and understand differences between Western culture and indigenous culture to explain to learners in class.

What is the meaning of inclusive?If you describe a group or organization as inclusive, you mean that it allows all kinds of people to belong to it, rather than just one kind of person.If a price is inclusive, it includes all the charges connected with the goods or services offered. If a price is inclusive of shipping and handling, it includes the charge for this.I believe anyone is a combination of the innate and acquired education.As Jacques Lacan's mirror stage described, when a person is a child, at 0-6 months of age, you were dominated by a chaotic mix of perceptions, fee
