Research
Tangiwai's research interests include te reo me ngā tikanga Māori, Māori Education and Māori Pedagogy. In 2006 she completed her Master of Indigenous Studies which looked at the impact and implications of Ministry of Education legislative changes to teacher qualifications (effective 1 January 2006) on and for teaching staff in a small sample of Kura Kaupapa Maori in the South and North Islands of New Zealand. A copy of this thesis can be accessed at the following link: http://eprintstetumu.otago.ac.nz/96/. In July 2009 Tangiwai undertook case study interviews with seven mainstream schools in the North Island about Māori pedagogy use in their schools. This provided the material to write her book chapter, Māori Teaching Pedagogies-where to from here?(see Research Outputs below). This material will also become part of the discussion chapter in her PhD thesis. Tangiwai has been enrolled part time in her PhD investigating intergenerational knowledge transmission and pedagogy from the late 1800s until the present, and their place in today’s learning environments; particularly from a Waikato Tainui perspective about practices associated with the Kīngitanga(King Movement).
