Education, 1990, will provide the required skills reference for teachers and students.
2 The context of the inquiries is limited to local rohe/takiwā. Where local rohe are also occupied by a number of other iwi/hapū, the tangata whenua/mana whenua view will take precedence. However other iwi/hapū views should not be excluded. Different views enrich and enhance understanding of key Māori geographic concepts and practices. Issues associated with defining a Māori view can also be identified and described. Tangata whenua authorities are an important part of the moderation of these unit standards.
3 Descriptions and explanations can be presented in a number of ways, eg oral, visual, written, whakaari, and waiata.
