"Kia hiwa ra" literally means "to be alert." This book is intended
to alert teachers to models of good teaching in diverse classrooms
and to encourage them to be alert to the various cultures that are
represented. If we want to extend academic achievement for M ori
students, we need to create a strong foundation for their learning.
This foundation includes building upon students' cultural and
experiential strengths to help them acquire new skills and
knowledge. This book records the work and thoughts of
culturally-relevant teachers, all of whom demonstrate connectedness
with students and who see their classrooms as places where they
"listen to culture" in order to forge meaningful relationships that
enhance the quality of the learning environment. Kia Hiwa Ra is a
book which can help all teachers to become "educultural" helping
them to understand themselves, their culture, and the culture of
others - and to be more successful with all students.
