“This kit had some excellent resources and ideas for teaching racism. Although we did not manage to get through all the resources due to Covid the ones we used were suitable and enjoyable for students. They enjoyed the hands on nature of the kit as well.”

The materials seemed designed to encourage students to become outspoken on social media, which is good, but in the time I was able to use them I thought there could have been more meat to ensure the students had a good understanding of what was meant by r

How effective was the use of social Media for Fighting Social Injustice I had not realised that use of Instagram would be part of the kit, and I find specified social media such as that somewhat limiting and also sometimes inappropriate for some of my students. The idea of creating online campaigns was interesting.

In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? I did not engage with the journal as much as I should have. However, I thought that it was a good idea to really get teachers to consider their understanding of the topic properly, instead of just passing on information without their own engagement. I fel

“It is difficult to rate this kit as I was jsut beginning to get into the materials when we went into Alert Level 4. Most of the materials looked like good starters and introductions, but less like ideas for what to do with the materials than other kits I have ordered.”

In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? I was already fluent in the ways that racism occurred and was already convinced but the resource furthered the discussion into deeper reflections for myself and the class

“Students enjoyed the conversations that this resource created. The activities were at times somewhat confusing to follow but when completed, it provided a good avenue for some great discussions in unpacking racism”

How effective was the use of social Media for Fighting Social Injustice Worked with/for some of the students. Some were really keen, some will do whatever work we ask them to but did it well. Instagram is less of a social media focus for most junior students than it might have been two years ago

In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? Gave me some valuable points to think about when framing activities, especially as a non POC. Good conversation points as a teaching team too

“Awesome resources and some really good activities which helped open dialogue and have effective discussions around a often difficult topic. Lots of ongoing conversations that related to previous topics and have continued to do so. Would have been good to get the kits and access to the whole online teaching guide a lot earlier than we did. Some of the guidance for teachers was a bit vague. Instagram isn't the social media hook it might have been 2 years ago.”

In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? I had to stop and think hard about some of these prompts but made me become more aware of how everyday thoughts can be an unconscious bias.

“This was incredibly thought provoking. It was shared with our staff in our PLG which focuses on normalising Te reo in kura. Some found it confronting but they particularly liked the stereotype Pictionary activity. With my students that need support we described what these stereo types might look like… including the clothes they wear. This was really interesting.”

“Some of the resources are fantastic and others overbearing. My biggest problem is they are not available when I need them to plan ahead. The system is set up like Facebook- drop feeding, cheering on, keeping people engaged but not like an educational program where the teacher makes decisions before they commit to a course of actions. I would want all resources available from the beginning, so that I have agency for my students and ultimately my program.”
