Learning Assessment Tool for STUDENTS - Te Whaihanga - Ako Aotearoa National Project

Participant Information Sheet

The following survey takes a few minutes to complete. It is designed to assess your understanding of 3 Māori values. Participation is voluntary and the results are anonymous.

Students taking part in this online survey are assured that neither grades nor academic relationships with your School, Department or teachers will be affected by your decision to take part or not.

The Te Whaihanga project aims to ensure that future generations of architects, planners, engineers and landscape architects are better prepared to work with Māori professionals, iwi representatives and community economic development organisations and papakāinga developers in their day-to-day work.

Students studying in these fields need to learn why and how it is important to engage effectively with Māori. Built environment professionals effect change to the spaces and places in which communities live.

This Online Survey will help evaluate some of the skills and knowledge professionals need in working with Māori. Survey data will be disseminated through working papers and publications in the fields of teaching and learning in the planning, architecture, landscape architecture and engineering disciplines. As the survey is anonymous participants cannot identified in any report or publication.

Participants Right of Questioning: At anytime throughout the online process participants may address relevant questions to the Principal Investigator Dory Reeves via email.
