关于此电子书
The book progresses chronologically, starting with pre-colonial MÄori society and its knowledge transmission methods, then moving through missionary-led education and the subsequent state-controlled policies. A key insight is how early missionary schools, while introducing literacy, also served as tools for cultural assimilation.
The later chapters focus on contemporary MÄori-medium education, analyzing the successes and challenges in revitalizing the MÄori language and culture through initiatives like kura kaupapa MÄori and wÄnanga. By drawing on historical documents, oral histories, and contemporary data, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of MÄori education.
It culminates in a discussion of culturally responsive educational practices, advocating for policies that empower MÄori students and promote equitable outcomes. This approach offers valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and anyone interested in indigenous education and cultural preservation.
