Mātakitaki i a Kiritina Johnstone, Te Kaiwhakahaere o Te Rōpū Reo Māori ki Te Tāhuhu o te Mātauranga e kōrero ana mō tēnei rāuemi Rapua Te Ara Tika

Rapua Te Ara Tika

Ko Rapua te Ara Tika he Rauemi Whakamahere Marau i takea mai i ngā whakahaere o nehe, me ngā tikanga tuku iho o te wānanga. I roto i tēnei whakaaro mō te wānanga, ka whakatītina ai te Kāhui Ako kia tirohia Te Ao Māori me ērā āhuatanga ōna e whakaawe nei i tēnei mea te ako ki tā te Māori titiro.

Whakamahi ai a Rapua te Ara Tika i te tukanga wānanga i roto i tētahi takiwā mariko. Ko te takiwā mariko nei he wāhi ka tūhuratia, ka tohatohangia, ka matipakitia, ā, ka waihangatia ngā whakaaro i runga i te hiahia kia whakaumutia te mahi akoako, kia arotahi hoki ki te Mātātaki Paetae nā ngā Kāhui Ako anō i whakarite. Ko te huarahi ka whāia e koutou he mea whakaata i ngā tikanga Māori mō te uru ki te Whare Wānanga.

Te Whare Wānanga

I tīkina tēnei kōrero mō te whare wānanga hei whakaahua i ngā mahi e pā ana ki te wānanga. Nā, i te nuinga o te wā ka tū ngā wānanga nei ki runga marae ātea, ki roto i te wharenui, whare tupuna rānei. Nā konei e kīia ai he whare wānanga. Ko Te Whare Wānanga e kōrerotia ana i konei, ko te wāhi e tū ai te wānanga.

Te Herenga Tāngata

He nui ngā herenga tāngata o ngā kaiako, ngā kura me te Kāhui Ako. He mātua, he kaumātua, he marae, he rūnanga, he hapū, he iwi, he pakihi rānei. Arā noa atu ngā momo herenga tāngata. Ko te tikanga o tēnei rauemi he ārahi i tō kura, i tō Kāhui Ako ki te āta kōrero mō te momo herenga ōna ki a koutou. Ā, kia raua aua ingoa ki tētahi rārangi whakapā mā te kura anake, mā te Kāhui Ako whānui rānei.

He Akoranga Rangatira

I tīkina tēnei whakatauākī a Kīngi Pōtatau Te Wherowhero hei ārahi i te kura me te Kāhui Ako ki te hoahoa Akoranga Rangatira. “Mā te Kōrero ka Mōhio. Mā te Mōhio ka Mārama. Mā te Mārama ka Mātau. Mā te Mātau ka Ora” Ko te tikanga o te Kōrero i roto i tēnei whakatauākī e tohu ana kia aro ki ngā tairongo o te tangata arā ko ngā rongo ā-tinana, ā-hinengaro, ā-wairua, ā-whānau hoki. Ka taea e ngā Kāhui Ako te whakarangatira i te ako mā te whakarite i ngā momo huarahi mā ngā ākonga hei whakamahi, hei whakatupu hoki i ngā āheinga whai tikanga e ai ki tō rātou whānau, ō rātou tātai hapu/iwi, tō rātou hapori, ki tō rātou taiao hoki.

Te Ara Tika

Mā te Kāhui Ako| Community of Learning, e whakarangatira i ngā ara whakaako mā te mātua whakarite i te mārama me te ukiuki o te whakaako mā te ākonga, puta noa i ngā tau, whakawhiti katoa i ngā whakaritenga.
