NZARE Conference 2019

The NZARE Conference is three full days from Monday 18 to Wednesday 20 November, hosted by University of Canterbury, Te Whare Wananga o Waitaha. Our theme, “Te ha o te Takata”, challenges researchers, educators and stakeholders to critically engage with questions about ‘what is working’ and ‘what is not’ in the many facets of education that impact on our tamariki (children) and rangatahi (adolescents) in centres, schools and tertiary learning, both within in Aotearoa/NZ and internationally.
Our ancestral peak, Aoraki Mauka (Mount Aoraki), situated in the beautiful Southern Alps of the South Island, calls us to aspire to the highest peak as we collaboratively work together to revision teaching and learning to support every learner. Quintessential to this, is that within Aotearoa New Zealand, and internationally, the bicultural and multicultural nature of society necessitates culturally responsive and inclusive practices where culture and language are respected and situated in learning.
We are excited to present a range of highly respected keynote speakers who will provoke our thinking and practice. Join us for three days of research presentations, discussions and collaborative reflection
