title: Nutrient budget and water balance for Lake Ngaroto

authors: Beaton, Rowena

subjects: Lake Ngaroto

abstract: The objectives of the present study were to provide an indication of tributary nutrient and sediment levels, and the lake water quality for Lake Ngaroto over a period of summer sampling from December 2006 to February 2007.  The measurements were designed to provide a foundation for a comprehensive water balance and nutrient load assessment for the lake in a future study, and to ultimately support informed decision making related to lake management.

title: The Library Consortium of New Zealand's Shared IRR Infrastructure

authors: Brown, Allison

subjects: institutional repositories

abstract: The Library Consortium of New Zealand has run an Institutional Research Repository Project for three universities and one institute of technology in New Zealand since 2006. After a brief introduction to the context in which the project operates, this document describes the Institutional Research Repositories that are part of this project and their shared infrastructure. Particular emphasis is placed on advantages and challenges created by the shared infrastructure.

title: Putting it in there: "PSYC575 Indigenous Psychologies" as a for-credit university paper in New Zealand

authors: Waitoki, Waikaremoana

abstract: Over the past 30 years, scholar advocates have sparked the emergence of indigenous psychology as an important contribution to understanding the experiences and challenges faced by indigenous peoples. Part of this exercise is to also bring indigenous knowledges to the learning table as critical information for meaning making and resolving psychological challenges. Increasingly, academics are writing and teaching papers in the fledgling field as important and legitimate contributions for undergraduate and graduate degree credit. Previously, students and academics were confined to the more flexible research driven, directed-learning, study options rather than papers explicitly advertised and institutionally promoted. In this paper, we discuss how we are going about writing the curricula for a graduate level paper called "Indigenous Psychologies" to be offered in 2016 at the University of Waikato, New Zealand. We discuss a) principles that guide curricula decision-making; b) the programme of lecture topics developed; and c) finding and developing supporting resources. We welcome conversation and resource sharing.
