This course explores pedagogical approaches to teaching the Social Sciences in the primary school, with a focus on people, place, and identity in Aotearoa New Zealand. Students engage with key Social Sciences concepts and social inquiry to examine histories, geographies, cultures, belief systems, and economic contexts, and the relationships between local and global communities. Emphasis is placed on Te Tiriti o Waitangi, mātauranga Māori, and culturally sustaining practice. Through inquiry, field-based learning, and curriculum design, student teachers develop the capability to plan coherent, inclusive Social Sciences learning experiences that support diverse learners and communities.
