Āhuatanga Māori is at the forefront of an education students can expect to receive at a Māori tertiary organisation. Mainstreaming e-Education involves normalising electronic modes of teaching and learning into a conventional face-to-face teaching and learning tertiary environment. Conscientisation, resistance and transformative praxis are processes or stages that conventional teachers experience when faced with new electronic modes of course delivery. In a Māori tertiary organisation the conscientisation and resistance processes are amplified as a result of ako, the traditional Māori andragogical and pedagogical concepts of teaching and learning.
