Description
The history of Aotearoa New Zealand has many perspectives, some lesser known than others.
We present some here, and we welcome yours.
Sharing knowledge and hearing different perspectives gives us an opportunity to learn more about the history of Aotearoa New Zealand, the nation’s identity, language and culture, and to help shape the future.
The Tuia Mātauranga app explores the dual heritage of Aotearoa New Zealand through educational augmented reality (AR) activities and a waka hourua virtual reality (VR) experience from the epic journey navigated by Pacific voyagers, the challenges and highlights of the meeting of cultures to the present day.
The app accompanies the Tuia Mātauranga experience and booklet, exhibited in communities across the country and available online at www.tuiaeducation.org.nz.
The Tuia Mātauranga experience is delivered to encourage children and young people to take a leading role in their communities, learning about the past to shape the future they want to live in.
The Ministry of Education would like to acknowledge the contribution of iwi, the waka community, historians, National Library, Land Information New Zealand, Geocaching® volunteers and resource collections in Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand, Te Papa, and NZ History.
