  1. Science and Mātauranga Raising Achievement of Māori Marama Pōhatu Te Rangatahi Ltd

  2. Session Goals • Establish knowledge of strategies to support engagement with Māori learners/whānau/iwi/community • Explain how 1) links to raising Māori achievement in science • Recognise what constitutes scientific knowledge • Implement practical strategies for individual classrooms/schools

  3. Tauparapara • Whakataka te hau ki te uru • Whakataka te hau ki te tonga • Kia mākinakina ki uta • Kia mātaratara ki tai • E hī ake ana te atākura • He tio, he huka, he hauhunga • Tīhei mauri ora!

  4. Te Reo Pākeha • Prepare for the westerly • Prepare for the southerly • It will be icy cold inland • It will be icy cold on shore • May the the dawn rise red tipped on ice, snow, and frost; • “THE PROMISE OF A GLORIOUS DAY”

  5. Metaphors, References; concerned with the Universe, Earth, Sea, Sky, Night, Outer Space • 1) Acknowledges the great forces within the environment that are at work – the helpful but constant westerly, as well the bitterly cold southerly winds • 2) Loosening of the harmful; but strengthening of the useful bonds – once a southerly ceases a cold but windless night will follow • 3) Naming a oneness with the Atua - an awe inspiring dawn transforming the icy snowscape

  6. Mihimihi • Acknowledge the geographical features of a tribal area as well as whakapapa (genealogy) • More important than one’s name – often the last piece of information to be shared • Establish links with those present - whakawhanaungatanga • Critical to Māori – to know ones whakapapa is to know one’s identity • Starting platform to explore scientific concepts, processes and knowledge as well as te reo Māori

  7. Purpose • Acknowledging the value and integrity of Māori knowledge and practices • Sharing information about yourself • Evidencing a commitment to Te Āo Māori • Developing effective relationships • Undertaking professional development; evidencing RTC indicators

  8. Success Stories Vision Mātauranga Policy – Success for Māori means success for New Zealand Unlocking the science and innovation potential of Māori knowledge people and resources will benefit all New Zealand M.S.I. (2013) • Colouring in the White Spaces –a secure cultural identity in school connects students’ self and academic learning to the many worlds beyond school — including the international and future spaces. Milne, A. (2009)

  9. Success Stories cont. • Trial and evaluation of different modalities, pedagogies and content. “By me developing my knowledge of, and recognising different world views and ‘ways of knowing’ to support the students make sense of the content, it was clear that students warmly received the use of a different teaching style. They commented on the change and the enjoyment gained from the change. It was also clear that it was not just the Māori and Pāsifika children who would benefit from the use of different teaching pedagogies but that all children would benefit.” MOE (2009)

  10. Success • Ongoing beneficial relationships between iwi, schools and scientists “The power dynamics within research relationships changes when research collaborations are formed between researchers and indigenous peoples. Collaboration is about sharing with and learning from one another”. Cram, F. (2002)

  11. Group Task • Reflect on one Māori learner – past or present who has not achieved Discuss: Possible reasons Management at the time Possible solutions Process to follow

  12. Ka hoki ahau ki taku kura? When I return to my school • Take the first step – pronunciation, developing relationship/s, further research: culturally located learners, content knowledge, evidenced best practice, Te Kotahitanga, Hikairo Rationale – Edu- Cultural Wheel • Contact local whānau/iwi/community – MOE – (ref Human Resources Contacts) • Kia Hiwa Rā! (Be alert) Wider Issue - Science Literacy for Māori learners (NZCER 2010) • Self Review Tool for RTC – Professional Relationships and Professional Values and Professional Knowledge in Practice • Tātaiako Cultural Competencies for Māori Learners • Kiwi Leadership for Principals/Tū Rangatira

  13. Kōrero Whakamutunga • “The culture of the child cannot enter the classroom unless it has first entered the consciousness of the teacher” • Peters, S. (2010)
