title: There must be a better way - The case against the New Zealand Literacy Strategy and some examples of how we can help students who fall by the wayside

authors: Dymock, Susan

abstract: Literate cultural capital is a phrase used to describe the literacy knowledge and skills children have on school entry (Prochnow, Tunmer & Arrow, 2015; Tunmer & Nicholson, 2011). Literacy knowledge and skills include oral language, vocabulary, an awareness of how books operate, letter name knowledge, letter sound knowledge, phonological awareness, and invented spelling (Prochnow, Tunmer & Arrow, 2015). Children who commence school with a good level of literate cultural capital are advantaged and are more likely to develop age-appropriate reading skills as they progress through school compared to children who commence school with little literate cultural capital.

title: The role of a weed management Agency – a smart approach to delivering innovative biosecurity services

authors: Mole, David

abstract: Over the past year, Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) has taken a new approach to biosecurity as a result of significant external factors and a new, organisation-wide 10 year vision. We have reviewed our biosecurity aims and goals, and re-examined the tools and processes that determine our ability to fulfil these overarching outcomes and objectives.
Our new thinking about biosecurity has been informed by what we call SMART procurement, and this approach has encouraged innovation, ensured a better focus on outcomes, and laid the foundations for a truly strategic partnership with our suppliers. This
presentation will outline our SMART philosophy, and offer some thoughts on its benefits over traditional models of biosecurity management, focusing in particular on our aquatic weed control work.
