Purpose and Scope
To
provide a framework for communicating knowledge within the state
of compassion. Every human being shall know they are born
scientists.

Effective Pedagogy
Effective pedagogy
occurs when teachers reflect science in their lives. In this state
they bring vitality to any subject they teach.
It is what a
student does and the compassion they evidence and not what they
say that provides meaningful assessment of learning
activities.

School Curriculum:
Design and review
This document was
created in response to perceived flaws in the official 2007
New Zealand Curriculum and attempts to promote a more
sustainable framework. It is especially designed to enhance
awareness that science is an inclusive state common to all human
beings and it is founded in ethics.
