Culture Speaks: Cultural Relationships and Classroom Learning (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781869692797)

This book focuses on what it is like to be a young Mâori person in a New Zealand secondary school classroom today. It presents and discusses narratives drawn from the voices of Mâori secondary students, their whânau, principals, and teachers.

Whether you are a student, a parent, a principal, or a teacher, this book will help you to examine your own explanations for the educational achievement of students and begin to develop effective responses to the challenges it raises. The book proposes strategies for teachers to increase their effectiveness in the teaching and learning of students from Mâori and Pacific origins.
