Having a good conversation | Te whai whakawhiti kōrero pai

We want to hear your voice. We want to help you have a good conversation

We want to help New Zealanders have conversations about the future of education and learning wherever they feel most comfortable. Maybe it’s with the people you work with, your classmates, or with a community group. It’s over to you.

Tools to help your conversation | He taputapu hei āwhina

We’ve produced 3 tools to help you do this:

Informal conversation tool, designed for up to 5 people, taking 30 minutes to 1 hour. This tool includes a set of Conversation Starter Cards.
Small group conversation tool, designed for up to 20 people, taking about 1 hour. This tool requires you to access the videos of speakers at the Education Summit events.
Co-design workshop tool, designed for about 80 people, taking 2-3 hours. This tool requires you to access the Summit speakers’ videos and the Voices of the Future audio recording. It includes guidance about hosting and facilitating a workshop.

The guides on hosting and facilitating a workshop are also available separately.

Te reo Māori

Kei te hiahia mātou kia mārama, ā, kia rangona hoki ngā reo, ngā moemoeā me ngā mahi a Ngāi Māori mō Kōrero Mātauranga. Kei te hiahia mātou kia mōhio ki ngā whakaaro o ngā whānau, ngā hapū me ngā iwi mo te mātauranga. Ko tā mātou e hiahia nei ko te pūnaha mātauranga e tuku ana i ngā tutukitanga pai ake a te Māori, me tōna pai anō kia anga mai ngā tamariki me ngā rangitahi katoa.

Hei mea āwhina, kua whakaritea kia reo Māori ngā rauemi whakawhiti kōrero e toru nei:

Rauemi whakawhiti kōrero ōpaki (tae atu ki te 5 tāngata, 30 meneti ki te 1 hāora).
Rauemi whakawhiti kōrero ā-rōpū iti (tae atu ki 20 tāngata, 1 hāora).
Rauemi papamahi hoahoa ngātahi (tōna 80 tāngata, 2-3 hāora).

Ngā Kāri Tīmata Whakawhiti Kōrero e wātea ana ki te reo Māori. Kei te whai mātou kia oti ngā whakaupoko reo Māori mō ngā ataata kaikōrero.

Ko te tūmanako ka whai whakawhiti kōrero pai koutou ki tō koutou kura, wāhi mahi, hapori rānei, ā, kei te anga atu mātou ki te wā ka rongohia ā kōutou whakaaro.
