You may choose from the following key discussion points:

- A significant person associated with the area.
- A significant place or institution (e.g. a street or suburb sign that uses an Indigenous word/ place name).
- Contemporary views about that community.
You can include photographs or other forms of digital media; however, they should be relevant to the conversation, and captioned.

The Case Study must include reference to Indigenous voices/perspectives2 . The reference list is to be included on a separate page.
