“The kit was helpful to get started with Aotearoa Histories and I liked the way it is open ended for the students. I ran out of time to do as much of it as I would have liked just due to time constraints and the nature of the classroom.”

How has this kit impacted your confidence in delivering the new Aotearoa NZ's histories curriculum content? This has given me more confidence delivering aspects on Aotearoa Histories I was unfamiliar with.
How has this kit motivated you to explore the history or your local area? Could you use this model? We mostly look at local history in our courses. Unfortunately the resources provided do not cover our local area.

“Such a cool visual home screen interface, and I loved the thematic/place-based arrangement of resources. Feedback from students was that the pages that show up (after answering the pepeha) felt visually overwhelming, making it difficult for them to decide where to go (or feeling like there was too much to do that they were reluctant to start). I wonder what it could look like if the different scaffolded routes went to new pages? I didn't use this resource with the whole class but rather shared parts with different Year 10 studenst as extension opportunities; personal/family things that came up for me prevented a whole-class roll-out.”
