Week 31- Indigenous knowledge and cultural responsiveness in my practice

Activity 7: Indigenous knowledge and cultural responsiveness in my practice
Ko te kaupapa i tēnei wiki e hāngai ana ki te ahurea, me te hononga ki te taha whakaako.
I te mea kei te mahi ahau ki tētahi kura Māori ka wareware ahau he rerekē ia tamaiti, ā, i ētahi wā
he wero māku kia Māori ake ōku whakaaro i ahau e whakaako ana.
Taumata 1: Taku mōhiotanga mō te ‘cultural responsiveness’.
E ai ki a Milne (2017), he mea whakahirahira te ahurea, ā, me whai wāhi te kura me ngā kaiako ki
te whakanui ia rā, ia rā i roto i ngā marau katoa e whakaako ana i roto i te kura. Ko te mea nui ka
whai wāhi ngā ākonga me ngā whānau ki te tuku i tō rātou puna mātauranga. I tēnei wā kei te
whakaako ahau i ngā ākonga rima tau te pakeke. He maha ngā pātai me ngā whakaaro ka puta
i a mātou e ako ana. Ko taku mahi he whakarongo noa ki ngā kōrero, kātahi ka warea i ērā kōrero.
Kei te ako tonu hoki ahau ki te whakamahere i ngā mahi i te taha o te whānau. I te wā ka kite ahau
i ngā tuhinga e pā ana ki te ‘cultural responsiveness’, ka whakaaro tētahi kei te pai ngā kura Māori
i te mea, kei te mahi i te karakia, te powhiri, me ērā atu mahi a te Māori. Heoi, kei te ngana tonu
ahau kia tae mai ngā mātua ki te kura kia uiui ki ngā kaiako.
Taumata 2: Te arotake i aku mahi whakaako
Ka tirohia ahau ki ngā kōrero a Milne (2017), ā, ka whakaraupapa i ngā āhuatanga o te
‘school wide activities’, me te ‘decision making’.
He aha te āhuatanga i roto i tōku kura?
Ka mahi ahau ki tētahi kura Māori nōreira he mea nui kia aro ki te mātauranga Māori, me ngā
tikanga Māori. Ka whai mātou i ngā mātāpono kia here i ngā taha e whā o te tangata, arā, te
wairua, te tinana, te hinengaro, me te whānau. Ko tētahi āhuatanga e kaha kite ana i roto i te kura,
ko ngā kaupapa ā kura. Hei tauira, i te wā ka tae atu ki te kura ka kaha kite i te powhiri, te kapa
haka, te whakairo, me ngā manu kōrero. Nōreira, e whai wāhi ana te tamaiti kia noho Māori i te
kura. Ki te kuhu atu ki te akomanga, he Māori katoa ngā tamariki me ngā kaiako, ā, ko te reo
Māori te reo matua e rangonahia ana i te kura. Kua kite ahau kei te noho wehewehe tonu ētahi
kaiako, me te whakaaro ko te pānui me te tuhituhi te mea nui o te ao. Engari, kei te ngana mātou
ngā kaiako i te kura ki te tirohia ki te katoa o te tamaiti, kia poipoi i ngā taha e whā kia eke ki te
kounga o te ako.
Taumata 3: Me aha inaianei?
Kua kite ahau i ngā whāruarua i roto i tōku ake mahi whakaako. Ka mōhio ahau he rerekē ia
tamaiti, ā, me whakanui i a rātou me a rātou pūkenga. Ko tētahi wero māku he whai wā ki te kōrero
ki ngā ākonga, ngā whānau, me te whakarite i ngā mahi e hāngai ana ki ngā tamariki. Kua kite
ahau i te painga o te whakanui i ngā tamariki nō ngā moutere me te whakamahere i ngā momo toi,
kanikani, me ngā pūrākau e pā ana ki a rātou. Ahakoa he Māori katoa ngā tamariki i te kura, me
aro ki ngā āhuatanga motuhake o ia iwi, ahakoa Hāmoa, Ngāti Toa, Kuki Airani rānei. Kua kite
hoki ahau i te aronga o te tamaiti inā ka tae mai tētahi o ngā mātua ki te pānui pukapuka, ki te
whakaako waiata rānei. Nōreira, ko tāku inaianei he whakapā atu ki ngā whānau, te hapori hoki
kia whakamahere kia whai wāhi ngā tamariki katoa i roto i ngā mahi ako.

Week 28- Influence of Law and Ethics in Practice

Create a reflective entry where you first identify an ethical dilemma that you either have faced or might face in the future, in your own practice that is linked to digital or online access or activity. This is an interesting topic and in my experience of teaching have seen many scenarios arise, especially before digital citizenship was introduced in school. For the purpose of this activity I will be following Rolfe et al.s’ (2001) reflective model. Step 1 (What): An ethical dilemma that I have faced involved a student, her parents, and a teacher. The teacher involved in the incident was an experienced teacher who taught for many years. The student was upset by the teacher for telling her and two other students quite firmly to go outside as all the other children were playing outside. The student was upset by the way the teacher spoke to her. The student later told her mother that the teacher was being mean to her and that she was a mean teacher. The parent later posted on...

Wiki 18- Future-oriented Learning and Teaching

1. I tēnei wiki ka tirohia ahau ki Theme 1: Personalising learning e ai ki (Bolstad, Gilbert, McDowall, Bull, Boyd & Hipkins, 2012) . Ka whai ngā tamariki i a rātou ake whāinga ako ia rā. Hei tauira, mō te pānui- ka mahi te tamaiti i ngā ngohe e hāngai ana ki tana whāinga ako. He aha tēnei āhuatanga i roto i te akomanga? Ehara i te mea ka waiho ngā tamariki kātahi ka mahia te mahi. I te mea he kohungahunga tonu rātou (5y.o), ka whai mātou i te Station Rotation Model kia āhei te kaiako te whakaatu me te whakatauira i tētahi pūkenga. Ko te wāhanga i runga i te ipurangi ko te ngohe i whakaritea ki Seesaw, ā, koia hoki te mahi motuhake e hāngai ana ki te tamaiti. 2. I te tīmatanga o te panonitanga i te akomanga, i te tino hiamo au ki ngā mahi me te wero. I kaha whakarite au i ngā āhuatanga o te akomanga rautau 21 pērā i te taiao  o te akomanga- kia whai wāhi ngā ākonga te mahi tahi (collaboration), me te whakawhiti kōrero ki ētahi atu (skilled communication). Ko te raru k...

Wiki 20-Choosing a topic for your teacher inquiry

Topic Area Blended learning models and student engagement I would like to focus on a blended learning model and how that impacts on student engagement. I have found it difficult to engage students in my new entrant classroom (Māori immersion), with little reo Māori. I think it is important to provide an inclusive environment at kura, however, it is difficult when there is a language barrier to hook those students into the mahi.
