- Paper Structure
The paper is focused on three key wāhanga or topics. These are: (1) Te Ao Māori / Māori worldview; (2) Tiriti o Waitangi / Treaty of Waitangi, kaupapa Māori theory and methodology; and (3) Applications of Māori PE and health. In this paper we ask students to:
- Examine perspectives of Māori PE and health
- Consider appropriate applications for Māori PE and health
- Relate theoretical concepts to current issues
This course has a compulsory 'Noho' marae (stayover) experience which is linked to a reflective assessment that is worth 10%. Approximately, an estimated 24 hours of 'course work' happens over this Noho. For this reason we only meet once a week at our one and only lecture (due to the hours we do during the Noho). Additionally, 50% of the assessments are via group-based assignments including a Group essay (25%) and a Group presentation (25%). Much of the planning and conversations for this group-based work occurs during the one lecture that we have. So, attendance at lectures is essential to your Group-based work and cannot be 'caught up' by watching the lecture on-line at a later time.

By the end of this paper students will have had:
- An opportunity to engage with some of the theoretical constructs of a Māori worldview
- An understanding of the relevance of the Tiriti o Waitangi for Māori PE and health
- An introduction to kaupapa Māori theory and methodology and acquired tools, which will help you in "practice" with Māori
- An improved understanding of the platform of your thinking for Māori PE and health
- An ideas in relation to a contemporary Māori PE and health issue in a group
- An understanding of course material through noho marae
