About this ebook
Coast Schools Merge delves into the integration of traditional indigenous knowledge with modern education in Maori coastal communities. It highlights the critical need for educational models that honor indigenous perspectives, promoting both equity and cultural identity. The book reveals how weaving, carving, and traditional storytelling are incorporated into the curriculum, alongside experiential learning and mentorship from elders. This approach challenges Eurocentric educational norms by valuing Te Ao Maori worldview and tikanga customs. The book argues for a genuine partnership between schools and tribal communities, embedding Maori language, culture, and values within the curriculum. It begins by outlining the historical context of Maori education, including the impact of colonization, and then examines case studies of coastal schools. The later sections evaluate academic performance, cultural identity development, and overall student well-being. This academic history provides insights into culturally responsive teaching and curriculum development, offering valuable lessons for scaling up such models in other indigenous communities.
