Weaving kaupapa Maori and e-Learning

This paper describes the creation and design of an online professional development course that aims to help educators in New Zealand to weave kaupapa Maori and e-Learning approaches together. The team sought to model weaving of kaupapa Maori and e-Learning approaches in how they worked together and the educational design for the material. The authors propose that educators with these skills are crucial if we are to effectively meet the needs of Maori learners, more than that, of all New Zealand learners, in the 21st century.
