This course explores, examines and analyses Maori pedagogical epistemologies, tools, approaches and strategies to enable teachers who teach te reo Maori through the medium of Maori across the curriculum to incorporate Maori ways of knowing or Matauranga Maori into their teaching and learning programmes. It supports teachers to normalise viewing the world from Maori eyes as an underpinning philosophical and theoretical base. As Mason Durie succinctly states, 'to be Maori, to live as Maori and to participate as citizens of the world'. Students are required to use kaupapa Maori approaches and principles to become action researchers in the communities in which they teach.
On the successful completion of this course, students will be able to:1. Demonstrate advanced knowledge about tangatawhenuatanga (iwi place-based) oral traditions 2. Engage in rigorous intellectual analysis of tangatawhenuatanga, mātauranga Māori and mātauranga-ā-iwi including selected oral narratives3. Critically evaluate and apply the literature and research on Māori and indigenous epistemologies as a pedagogical base 4. Use the literature and research about tangatawhenuatangata, mātauranga Māori and mātauranga ā iwi to design, apply and implement a tangatawhenuatanga, mātauranga Māori/ mātauranga ā iwi grounded curriculum into your school/ classroom 5. Critically analyse, evaluate and apply principles of kaupapa Māori research
