Our perception of the world is filtered through our experiences and culture; influencing how we think, what we do and how we communicate. Using culturally responsive pedagogy is especially important as it has been shown to raise student achievement for individuals from all backgrounds.
From building relationships with whānau to incorporating te reo into the classroom – SLEUTH provides teachers with culturally responsive teaching strategies and local research that enables ākonga to learn within the context of te ao Māori.
SLEUTH supports New Zealand educators to redefine expectations and success through their students’ worldview, and offers effective teaching methods that make learning relevant and engaging to ākonga Māori.
