Webinar with Professor Russell Bishop
In this webinar, Professor Russell Bishop will discuss his research into how Māori and other marginalised students – such as the children of migrant, refugee, and faith-based groups and neuro- and gender-diverse children – can benefit from a pedagogical approach that combines strong relationships with effective instructional practices. He will also discuss how leaders can develop the practices and culture in their schools that ensure teachers are able to implement and sustain this effective pedagogical approach.
Professor Russell Bishop (Tainui, Ngāti Pūkeko) was foundation Professor for Māori Education at the University of Waikato, and the initiator, lead designer and developer, and for the first twelve years, Project Director for Te Kotahitanga. He is the author of 7 books and 80 other publications which focus on the promotion of equity and self-determination in education through the application of kaupapa Māori principles and practices.
A recording of this webinar will be available after the session.
