Paper Description

Edit Paper Description Content

This course is intended for students with little or no prior knowledge of the Māori language. The emphasis will be on developing oral and listening skills in the Māori language with reading and writing skills as reinforcement. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to understand language that has a familiar pattern, recognise new words and be able to interact in a communicative way with predictable exchanges. Learners will also develop an awareness of the language learning process. The medium of delivery favours a bilingual approach and the teaching strategies are based on Māori pedagogical practices and communicative language teaching methodology where possible.
