Kōkiri: Academic Skills for Indigenous Studies - MAORI100 (2024)

This paper introduces academic skills that are directly useful for the rest of your university studies but will also provide a foundation for critical thinking and clear communication beyond the university. We focus on academic conventions in relation to Indigenous Studies: understanding the Indigenous and colonial contexts of tertiary study; the politics and practices of reading, writing, citation and oral presentation; key critical terminology; and an introduction to Maori, Pacific and Indigenous research methods.
