title: Ko au tēnei

authors: Temara, Pou

subjects: Tuhinga auaha

abstract: He puha tēnei, he momo rotarota. E kōrero ana tēnei puha mō te pepeha o Tūhoe, arā, ko Maungapōhatu te maunga, ko Waikare te awa ko Tamakaimoana te hapu, ko Taiturakina rāua ko Pōhokorua ngā tāngata, ko Tūhoe te iwi.

Kua roa tēnei pepeha e mau ana i ngā kākahu Māori o nehe, ā, nō ngā rautau ki muri te tawhito o te pepeha nei. Kua mate noa atu te hunga nā rātau i waihanga. Ko rātau e mōhio ana ki te horopaki i titoa ai ā rātau pepeha. Taka iho ki nāianei kāore anō kia rerekē ngā kupu o te pepeha.

Engari kua rerekē te ao me tōna tai, he whakatipuranga hou kua hua ake hai noho i te whenua. He rerekē ōnā whakaaro, he rerekē te ahurea. Kua roa e noho tahi ana ēnei whakatipuranga me ngā iwi huhua o te ao, he rauiwi te ahurea. Kua whakatōria hoki te whakaaro o aua ahurea maha ki te hinengaro o te Māori. Kua riro ngā whakaaro i te ao whānui koia nei kai te tohutohu i te whakaaro o te Māori o ēnei rā.

Me pēhea te whakauru atu i te whakaaro o mohoā nei ki te whakaaro o ukiuki, kia whai tikanga ai ki te ngākau o nāianei ki te pepeha o mua? Kua tawhito o rātau kākahu. E hia ngā kaupapa, ngā pakanga, ngā kaikiritanga, ngā mamae i roto i taua wā. Kua tae ki te wā hai whakamautanga mā ō nāianei Māori i ngā kākahu o ēnei rā ki ngā pepeha o mua, kia whai wāhi ai ki te ahurea me te whakaaro o ēnei rā.

Ehara i te mea me whakaae te iwi katoa ki ngā whakaaro kua tāpiritia ki te pepeha nei. Engari hai aha mā wai? Ko te rotarota he kupu nā te kaitito, he kupu motuhenga nō tōna ngākau, hai tohu i tāna titiro ki te ao, ā, kia uru atu ai ia ki te ao me ngā whakaaro o mua.

title: The Māori health data governance model: A planning and protocol checklist

authors: Kremer, Lisa

abstract: Māori health data (MHD) governance is a critical enabler of achieving health equity for Māori. The Māori Data Governance Model (the Model) provides a framework for all stages of Māori data handling but has yet to be meaningfully implemented within health settings. This study aimed to meet the need for health-specific guidance by adapting the Model to create an MHD governance checklist. This checklist can be used by health researchers and agencies to develop and embed their own MHD governance protocol (e.g. embed within study protocol).

title: Advancing Scholarship /scholarship in geography classrooms

authors: Chalmers, Lex

abstract: The Scholarship examination is a longstanding feature of secondary school assessment. Scholarship is available to our “brightest and best” students in geography, and it is designed to recognise excellence and thereby enhance access to the tertiary education system. It is surprising, therefore, that geography Scholarship in New Zealand secondary schools has received little attention. Perhaps this is because Scholarship is a must-have feature of an education system shaped by meritocracy: it is hard to imagine a secondary education system that did not encourage students to think, act and perform independently at the highest level. Yet Scholarship is largely hidden; it has a publically available assessment specification and achievement standard, but it affects only a small proportion of the student population and teacher involvement in preparation for Scholarship is often modest, especially if low numbers cannot sustain a regular timetable slot. I will argue that while the intent of Scholarship is positive, the mechanism is crude: some very good students don’t enter Scholarship geography, some of the best don’t do themselves justice on the day, and not all forms of scholarship are revealed.
The first substantive section of this chapter looks at the use of the word ‘Scholarship’ (capitalised) to describe the outcome of an assessment process in secondary schools. This section is followed by a commentary on ‘scholarship’ (lower case) as a broader description of learning, teaching, research and intellectual developments in a discipline. The initial focus is thus on geography Scholarship as a prescription in the secondary sector, the second on scholarship as a career aspiration of those engaged in geography in the tertiary sector: two different uses of the word underpinning a commitment to lifelong education. While there are clear connections between school geography Scholarship and the development of tertiary scholarship in geography, retaining them as discrete, item-bound entities is artificial. In the concluding sections of the chapter I argue that the opportunities provided by the particular nature of the Scholarship experience at Year 13 can build into intellectual futures that include broader definitions of scholarship. Central to this argument is recognition of the scholarly functions of secondary teachers of geography.
