IntroductionThis edition of our annual research publication, 2015 Research
Showcase, focuses on projects across a range of academic disciplines.
Our research remains relevant and connected. Relevant, because it addresses current issues and thinking while looking ahead to the future. Connected, because it links our researchers and their knowledge to communities and stakeholders regionally, nationally and beyond. Importantly, it also links our research with degree teaching.
Two of the studies are culturally significant. Ron Dennis (Te Ūranga Waka) has documented for the first time the design history of Te Ara o Tāwhaki including its links to tribal history and the acquisition of knowledge. Meantime, Associate Professor Steve Gibbs (Toihoukura) has collected data from museums in Europe as part of his research mission to locate, analyse and document the ancient hoe (paddles) taken to Europe by Captain James Cook in 1769.
Another innovative project is Mazin Bahho’s (ideaschool) demonstration of environmental sustainability practices in architecture via a fully restored log cabin. His aim is for the Ōtātara log cabin to become a local showcase for such practices.
The postgraduate student research project featured is that of Philip Shambrook who graduated with a Master of Health Science in April 2016. Philip investigated the use of portable fitness devices to acquire objective information about physical activity levels and tested the reliability of this data when uploaded to the internet.
Keeping abreast of recent technological advances is pivotal to the ongoing research of Dr Emre Erturk (School of Computing) on cloud computing and big data. His recommendations for IT student teaching as well as practical applications for professionals have been very well received. Academics too have to upgrade their expertise with technology in order to deliver degree programmes online as well as face-to-face. Judy Wivell (Social Work) and Stephanie Day (Education Development Centre) investigated the efficacy of blended learning delivery in the Bachelor of Social Science (Social Work) over a two year period. Their research reported on the tools, skills
and techniques that contributed to positive learning experiences as well as ways for further enhancement.
Other applied research studies include two within exercise science. Lee-Anne Taylor (School of Recreation and Sport) has developed from her research a protocol preventing knee injuries in Netball as part of collaboration between Netball New Zealand, orthopaedic specialists, sports medicine practitioners and physiotherapists. The other study was undertaken by Research Professor Bob Marshall and Dr Anne Hiha evaluating a three year physical activity programme established in two urban Hawke’s Bay communities, Maraenui and Camberley.
From our Bachelor of Teaching (Primary) come two research studies, that of Dr Emily Nelson and her research with student voice in the intermediate school classroom and Associate Professor Viv Aitken’s analysis of the use of drama as a teaching strategy in seven New Zealand primary schools.
Research in the field of nursing that appears here is the work of Associate Professor Thomas Harding whose recent publications have canvassed a range of social issues in nursing such as western values within nursing curricula; nursing staffing patterns and men in nursing. The other nursing research is that of Dr Ruth Crawford whose work examined communication involving emotions between nurses and parents of a child in hospital, with a particular focus on the cultural context of the child’s care.
I hope you enjoy reading about these studies. The list of 2015 research outputs also makes for interesting reading. If you would like to discuss a research or evaluation project utilising the expertise of EIT staff please contact us.

Nurses’ Emotional Labour in a Hospital Children’s WardDr Ruth Crawford recently completed her PhD through the University
of Technology Sydney (UTS), which involved 280 hours of observation
in the children’s ward of a New Zealand regional hospital.
Her research examined communication involving
emotions between nurses and parents of a child in
hospital, with a particular focus on the cultural context
of the child’s care.
In the field of inpatient child health nursing, the
nurse relates to both the child who is a patient and
the child’s parents or caregivers. The relationship the
nurse develops with parents is vital in the management
of the child’s care because most parents continue
to parent their child and work alongside the nurse.
There is also an expectation that the parent or
primary caregiver will remain involved in a child’s
hospital care and work collaboratively with nurses.
Using focused ethnography as her research method, Ruth
shadowed nurses as they went about their daily practice,
informally talking with them and with the parents of their
paediatric patients. All the while she amassed copious
field notes which she followed with 20 formal interviews
with both nurses and parents. To help her manage
the volume and complexity of these data, all were
uploaded into a qualitative data management software
program which enabled their classification and order.
Ruth is now in the process of writing papers
from her thesis. She is focussing on the ways that
hospital ward and nursing culture influence and
shape nurses’ behaviour with regard to emotional
communication. Parents of children in hospital
want to communicate emotionally with nurses but
generally nurses choose not to acknowledge or
respond to parents’ emotional cues. Both parents
and nurses experienced difficulty with emotional
communication, leaving parents feeling vulnerable
and isolated and nurses inadequate and stressed.
Nurses tend to protect
themselves against parents’
emotional needs and
the potential impact of
emotional connections.
The current system requires nurses to focus on
the physical aspects of caring for the child.
Ruth’s findings highlight the difficulties faced by
nurses practising in hospitals as they bridge the
unease between organisational demands, the needs
of people they encounter daily and their own
personal vulnerabilities. Her conclusions include the
recommendation that appropriate nursing models need
to be further enmeshed in practice, such as the Family
Partnership model which focuses on interaction with
families and increasing skills of staff to work with them.

The Big Wide World of Cloud Computing and Data ManagementDuring 2015, Dr Emre Erturk’s research focused on cloud computing
and big data, important trends in the world of information technology
and ones which will have significant impact on future curricula for
teaching computing and information systems at tertiary institutions.
Emre’s research interest in cloud computing goes back
several years. He has taught the post-graduate course
“Cloud Based IT Solutions” since 2014. In October 2014,
during the ITX/CITRENZ conference, Emre spoke on
a panel of experts about ways of incorporating cloud
computing into tertiary teaching. In recent years, he
has spent a significant amount of time working on using
open and cloud-based technologies for teaching and
his recent goal has been to investigate the use of cloud-
based technologies by local organisations. This involves
cooperation with the Cloud Security Alliance, Hawke’s
Bay SharePoint User Group, Hawke’s Bay Business
Analysts Group and other industry contacts. From
these contacts and his own past work experience with
database and data warehouse reporting, Emre sees the
need to better understand and inform others about the
recent trend of big data within the broader distribution
and cloud-based information technology framework.
Emre recognises that learning about big data
is useful and necessary for students as well as
experienced database professionals given the
recent increase in jobs requiring skills in this area.
There is a broad range of
database skills associated
with big data, including
database design, analytics and
operational administration.
In particular, Emre and post-graduate student Kamal
Jyoti have investigated a popular big data application
called MongoDB and have developed ideas for useful
practical learning activities that can be explored with
this package. In addition to articulating new content
for future curricula, their recent article in the journal
Engineering, Technology and Applied Science Research,
titled “Learning a Big Data Application: What Database
Engineers and IT Students Need to Know”, contributes
to the newly emerging academic literature in the area
of cloud computing and big data. In the article, Emre
offers recommendations for database engineers and
IT professionals on keeping up with this trend.

Keeping the Education Focus on Student VoiceFor Dr Emily Nelson, an interest in student voice means bringing the world view and perspectives of children into the classroom, involving them in educational debate, design and decision-making and elevating their status and influence alongside educators.
Her key interest is what student voice means for teachers
and how it can be used to bring teachers and students
together.
There are many reasons to consider student voice
in education but Emily’s main motivation concerns
social justice. The UN Convention on the Rights
of the Child includes the child’s right to be heard,
positioning respect for children’s views as a legal
obligation within education. She recognises that, despite
30 plus years of research and pedagogical practice
addressing student voice, the change it evokes in
student status remains problematic and challenging.
For her PhD thesis at The University of Waikato,
entitled, ‘Is this student voice? Students and teachers
renegotiate power through governance partnerships
in the classroom’, Emily engaged a three-cycle action
research model and worked with three teachers and
their year 7 and 8 students within a New Zealand
intermediate school. The teachers each identified
one pedagogical area that their classroom students
saw as relevant to their learning but needing
redesigning for effective teaching. The teachers met
regularly to plan and reflect on collaborations with
their students and to ensure that aspects of teacher
voice were addressed in the process of enacting
student voice. A research group of 12 students drawn
from the three participating classes also provided
ongoing insight into classroom power dynamics.
As an outcome of the research,
teachers and students worked
together in the ‘governance zone’
where decision-making, usually
the sole domain of teachers,
was shared with students. Teachers gained valuable insight into their
students as learners as well as the efficacy of their
teaching from their students’ perspectives.
Emily’s research suggests that student voice in the
classroom is a joint student/teacher practice that requires
building student capacity for decision-making. However,
without parallel consideration of the conditions
that impact on teachers’ autonomy to build student
influence, student voice will remain more rhetoric than
reality. Teachers and students were constrained by
school expectations and accountability demands.
Emily is now considering student voice in
‘modern learning environments’, including digital
technologies. She is collaborating with US academics
on a literature review to establish the research
direction for the American Educational Research
Association Middle Level Education Special
Interest Group regarding digital technologies.

Te Ara o Tāwhaki2015 marked the 21st anniversary of the opening of Te Ara o Tāwhaki at EIT.
Research undertaken by Ron Dennis has documented
the detail associated with this building, including its
location, construction, the carvings and paintings,
so that the knowledge about Tāwhaki is preserved
and available for staff and students in future.
The impetus for Ron Dennis to complete the
research was that elders who knew the history
of Te Ara o Tāwhaki, such as kaumātua, Tuahine
Northover, kuia, Materoa Haenga and Hone Harmer
had passed on. Although they had spoken of the
history and importance of Te Ara o Tāwhaki at
hui and in the classroom, Ron realised that the
detailed knowledge had to be documented while
it could be recalled by him and others. Plus, he was
curious to learn as much as he could about it.
It was Koro Tuahine Northover Ngāti Pārau (hapū-
Waiohiki), members of the Māori Advisory Committee
of that era, and many kaumātua of Kahungunu, who
devised the concept for the design of Te Ara o Tāwhaki,
which means the pathway of Tāwhaki. Tāwhaki was a
demi-god who overcame a series of obstacles as he
climbed to the tenth heaven, where he received a kete
of karakia from Tama-i-waho, which he brought to earth
to help mankind. It was Tāne-nui-ā-rangi who ascended
to the uppermost heaven to collect the three kete of
knowledge and the two mauri stones from Io-te-matua.
Tāne, who is depicted on the apex of the roof (koruru)
of the wharenui, brought these three kete to earth to
help mankind in their quest for knowledge. The journey
of Tāne can be read through the carvings and painting
on the wharenui whilst the links to Ngāti Kahungunu and
other tribes are also highlighted. Throughout, there is
a message to students, staff and visitors that no matter
where you come from you are linked in some way.
Further, that it is possible to overcome challenges so
that knowledge sought on the campus can be attained
and in turn open up new possibilities and pathways.
In order to examine the complexities of the links
between traditional knowledge and the location, Ron
interviewed many involved with the establishment
and construction of Te Ara o Tāwhaki, including carver
Hugh Tareha from Waiohiki, senior staff members of
Te Ūranga Waka, archival material from EIT and ex
students from Te Manga Māori. Ron then took the
different building sections and, with images, told the
story of each so that future readers could understand
how each section is connected to the whole.
Central to this is the actual location of Te Ara o Tāwhaki
at the very front of the EIT Hawke’s Bay campus (Te
Aho a Māui). Here Te Ara o Tāwhaki faces the rising
sun, at the foot of the Ōtātara Pā site and Hikurangi
Maunga, alongside the Tūtaekurī River. Te Ara o
Tāwhaki bids those who come onto the marae ātea
to pursue the pathway of Tāne and Tāwhaki. For the
opening of the marae on 29 October 1994, Materoa
Haenga and Betty Rāwiri wrote the words for the
waiata. The tune was by Hāwea Tōmoana and Joseph
Te Rito. The waiata acknowledges the location as
well as the many people who had contributed to the
marae complex and to Māori Studies over the years.
Nau mai, haere mai rā ki te karanga a Te Ara o Tāwhaki
E tū nei i waenganui i ō tātau marae-kāinga
I raro i te maru ō Ōtātara
I te taha ō Tūtaekurī, ā hī!
E haruru mai rā
Ka mihi, ka tangi ki te hunga
Nā rātau nei i wawata, i moemoeā te kaupapa
Kua whakatinanatia mai nei
Tū mai rā!
Tū mai rā Te Ara o Tāwhaki
Hei whare wānanga mō ngā uri whakaheke
E whātoro ake nei ki te toi o te mātauranga
Hei painga mō tātau katoa

Preventing Knee Injuries in NetballLee-Anne Taylor knows what it’s like to injure her knees through playing
netball so when it came to following a research interest she looked for
ways to help prevent other netball players from doing the same.
She also knew the statistics. Accident Compensation
Commission data shows that the most common
injuries for female netball players are knee and
ankle injuries, with 4383 new claims made by 15
to 19-year-olds between July 2013 and June 2014.
These and the 5880 ongoing claims had an associated
cost that year of more than $8.37 million.
Because of their anatomy, young women are two to six
times more likely than men to rupture their anterior
cruciate ligament (ACL), the most common and
debilitating knee injury in netball. Many who suffer
ACL damage will show signs of arthritis ten years later.
Knowing that young netballers’ injuries are mostly
caused by poor landing technique which could be
improved with targeted exercise, Lee-Anne, in her
role as coach of the under-17s Hawke’s Bay netball
team, trialled a warm-up protocol that was quite
different from those traditionally used. Based on the
‘Prevent Injury and Enhance Performance Program’,
reportedly successful in reducing knee injury rates in
young female football players, the protocol involved
trunk and lower limb strengthening, aerobic activity,
jumping and landing techniques, agility and netball
specific drills. Lee-Anne’s intention was to have her
players adopt good landing technique based on sound
biomechanical principles and to develop the strength
and conditioning needed to help prevent injuries from
occurring. This she achieved, with only one ankle injury
sustained in her team throughout the trial season.
Lee-Anne presented the results of this trial protocol at
the Physiotherapy New Zealand Conference in Auckland
in September 2014.
This led to the development of an
injury prevention collaboration
between Netball New Zealand,
orthopaedic specialists, sports
medicine practitioners and
several physiotherapists.
With that collaborative project well underway Lee-Anne
turned her attention to pre-season conditioning. A
six-week pre-season conditioning programme found
by other researchers to be effective in improving
athletic performance and reducing injuries has been
developed for 13 to 19-year-old netball players in
the Netball Central Zone. This is the second largest
zone in New Zealand in terms of adolescent netball
players and therefore an excellent location for Lee-
Anne to trial another injury prevention strategy.

Activate Maraenui, Activate Camberley‘Activate Maraenui, Activate Camberley’ was a three-year programme
supported by Sport Hawke’s Bay to develop sustainable physical
activity in two Hawke’s Bay urban communities through the training and
mentoring of leaders and the delivery of sporting and other events.
Professor Bob Marshall and Dr Anne Hiha from
EIT were contracted to evaluate the programme
and regularly report on its progress. When the
programme was completed in 2015 it was deemed
a success, having provided a welcome boost
to the Camberley and Maraenui communities.
In addition, each community had developed a
sustainable hub to help keep its members active.
In Maraenui, the hub is a recognised and respected
group of Maraenui Motivators who took on
administrative responsibility for the Maraenui
Community Groups’ monthly calendar, providing a
reference for groups planning events and providing
information for the Maraenui community. Maraenui
now has a network of leaders from within the
ranks of the Maraenui Motivators but also from
other community groups and organisations.
The hub in Camberley is the newly enlivened
Camberley Community Sports Club, which was
incorporated in 2014. Recognised leaders in Camberley
have developed their leadership capabilities
and support active lifestyles in their community
through involvement with this sports club.
As part of the ‘Activate Maraenui, Activate Camberley’
programme new sports coaches were trained and
accredited, regular sporting events and other activities
were held, and a dedicated group of locals in each
community undertook to be responsible for running
activities and projects. For example, in Maraenui the
‘Stay at Home Mums’ waka ama crew qualified as
coaches and now coach in local schools. The Camberley
Community Sports Club organised coaching clinics
that increased the number of coaches in netball and
volleyball, also benefiting a number of schools. Leaders
gained organisational and management skills and now
independently run events. After another successful Iron
Camberley Duathlon, the Iron Māori organisation has
agreed to assist in the organisation of this flagship event.
Each community has made a commitment to continue
with activities that encourage their residents into
more active lives and increased engagement with
others. At the end of the ‘Activate Maraenui, Activate
Camberley’ programme both communities recognised
that they cannot remain sustainable without the
support of others. Maraenui Motivators are building
an interactive network of groups, organisations
and businesses. The Camberley Community Sports
Club is committed to building a strong sports club
with an effective administration that will enhance
residents’ positive identification with the Camberley
community. Both hubs have maintained relationships
with Sport Hawke’s Bay and local council staff.

Blended Learning in the Bachelor of Applied Science (Social Work)In 2011, the Bachelor of Social Science (Social Work) ‘went blended’.
Precipitated by the merger of EIT’s two campuses,
going blended meant that the teaching of the BASS
degree, like several other EIT programmes before it,
was delivered to students through a combination of
face-to-face and online contact. Considerable upgrade
of technologies and support infrastructure were
required to ensure that the student cohorts on both
campuses received the degree delivery equitably.
Blended learning also required the BASS lecturing staff
to redesign their courses for a seamless integration of
online and face-to-face delivery, to develop skills in
teaching technologies and to learn new processes for
cross-campus teaching. Partly to examine the demands of
this curriculum change and to assess and monitor the new
learning process, Judy Wivell and Stephanie Day worked
together to capture the experiences of the staff and
students involved in the BASS blended delivery. Their
research considered the tools, skills and techniques that
contributed to positive learning experiences and how
these might be enhanced. They also explored the use
of pedagogical principles in the development of BASS
courses and appraised whether or not critical thinking
could be effectively developed in a blended context.
Over a two-year period, BASS staff and students on both
campuses were invited to participate in online surveys
and focus group discussions. Four staff focus groups were
conducted and seven student groups, each consisting of
students from a single year and involving 30 students in
total. Forty-two students completed the online survey.
Judy and Stephanie discovered it was sometimes
difficult to sort out whether the comments being
expressed by staff and student were responses to the
challenges involved in merging two geographically
distanced institutions or were specifically about
delivering the blended BASS programme. Clearly
the experiences were intertwined. However, staff
highlighted the challenges of designing effective
teaching and learning materials for delivering complex
concepts online. They also commented on their
increased awareness of the role of critical thinking in
an online environment where interactive activities
are needed for students’ cognitive development.
Some results of Judy and Stephanie’s research are soon to
be published in the journal, Advances in Social Work and
Welfare Education. Their paper presents the following
themes: pedagogical shifts, changes and challenges; the
significance of time and space; engagement in learning;
technological practicalities; student orientation to
blended learning; and developing relationships. Their
insights are largely congruent with the burgeoning
literature about online teaching and learning.

Design for Behaviour Change: Restoring the Ōtātara Log CabinMazin Bahho is currently restoring the old log cabin on the hill
above the EIT Hawke’s Bay campus, which was once part of the
Ōtātara Art Centre, the historic home of EIT’s ideaschool.
He has a specific goal for this project, however,
which is greater than merely saving the building
from disintegration for its historical merits. Mazin is
using the restoration process to demonstrate simple
environmental sustainability practices in architecture.
His aim is for the log cabin to become a showcase
of these practices and to be a place where schools,
community groups and interested individuals can learn
and be inspired by practical and easily maintained
solutions to sustainable building. Mazin’s interest is not
so much in ‘intelligent design’, instead he is focusing
on solid passive design fundamentals such as weather
tightness, insulation, sustainable solar energy and water
conservation. A planned green house addition will
play a part in effluent management and recycling.
This renovation project is pivotal to research for Mazin’s
PhD, in which he is enrolled at Victoria University
of Wellington’s School of Architecture. Alongside
the laborious building and repair process, Mazin
is investigating the relationship between practical
engagement and behaviour change. While research
focusing on behaviour change may be commonplace
in other disciplines it is rarely done in architecture,
particularly concerning environmentally sustainable
building and lifestyle behaviours. There is no other
architectural demonstration project of this kind in New
Zealand and Mazin is interested in the question, do
demonstration projects work to empower behaviour
change toward more sustainable practices?
Mazin has engaged EIT students in the project and
has conducted focus group discussion and surveys
with them, including pre-engagement and post-
engagement interviews. From these he has been able
to track the development and increased complexity
of students’ understanding of environmental
sustainability issues and observe possible changes
in their attitudes towards sustainability.
In addition to having ideaschool students work on
the concept and branding design, Mazin has been
assisted in the restoration project by many others,
including staff and students from the School of Trades
and Technology and from the companies TUMU
Group and Gemco Group Holdings Ltd. Mazin’s
neighbour, a retired builder, has given him a hand and
one of EIT’s research professors has also been seen
wielding a hammer on the site. EIT chief executive
Chris Collins has been particularly supportive.
In September 2015, Mazin presented a paper
on particular aspects of his project to the 31st
International Conference of Passive and Low Energy
Architecture (PLEA) which was held in Bologna, Italy.

The Reliability of GPS Devices for Collecting Exercise DataPhilip Shambrook graduated from EIT with a Bachelor of Recreation and Sport degree at the March 2014 Graduation ceremony where he delivered the valedictory address.
In April 2016 he will graduate with a Master of Health
Science degree from EIT. He had previously completed
Bachelor of Aeromechanical Systems Engineering and
Master of Business of Administration degrees during 21
years of service in the British Armed Forces. He arrived
in New Zealand in 1997 fresh from three years cycling
the world on a tandem with his wife, eventually moving
to Hawke’s Bay to begin studying at EIT.
Philip’s Master of Health Science research investigated
the use of portable fitness devices to acquire objective
information about physical activity levels and tested the
reliability of this data when uploaded to the internet. He
had observed that epidemiological studies investigating
the relationship between people’s health and physical
activity often used self-reports and questionnaires which
were not always reliable. The principle aim of Philip’s
study was to investigate the reliability of data flow from
a range of Global Positioning System (GPS) devices from
which information could be accessible to third parties via
the internet.
The 15 volunteers in Philip’s study each undertook four
running trials of two laps around a 2350 metre outdoor
track. Because of the timing of Philip’s master’s study,
these trials took place during winter and frequently
in weather Philip described as “most foul” in his
appreciative acknowledgements to his participants. The
GPS devices they wore on their wrists recorded distance,
time and elevation change.
When comparing these downloaded data points, Philip
found no significant difference between the recordings
for distance and time, but significant differences amongst
the recordings for both elevation loss and elevation gain.
He was able to conclude that publicly available data from
GPS-enabled portable fitness devices reliably report
distance and time recordings but not elevation changes.
Philip is now in Australia doing his PhD at La Trobe
University where he received a La Trobe University
Postgraduate Research Scholarship. His PhD research
takes a slightly different turn, being principally about
the efficacy and effectiveness of intermittent exercise on
cardio-metabolic health.
With the worldwide growth of obesity, diabetes and
other diseases related to compromised cardio-metabolic
health being closely associated with low levels of
exercise, Philip’s research aims to identify a format
that might encourage more people to increase their
exercise levels. Philip believes that low-intensity, low-
volume intervals of exercise that could be more readily
incorporated into an individual’s day to day life might
provide a suitable incentive.

Social Issues in Nursing
ResearchAssociate Professor Thomas Harding is the recently appointed Head of the
School of Nursing. He came to EIT as a New Zealander returning home from
his previous academic position at Australian Catholic University in Sydney.
Thomas describes his research history as being
somewhat eclectic because, he says, everything
in nursing is interesting. Nevertheless, there are
three main threads to his work: nursing workforce
development, gender issues and nursing history.
His interest in nursing workforce development
includes an analysis of cultural safety and nursing
ethics in light of the globalisation of nursing and
internationalisation of nursing education. This has
embedded nursing curricula with western values in
nations where cultural values may be based on very
different philosophies. Thomas draws on the experiences
of Chinese nursing students to highlight the need to
deconstruct current thinking around ethics in nursing.
Other research has looked at nursing staffing
patterns, skills and patient movement in hospitals
to highlight staff shortages and inadequate skill mix.
More recently Thomas and colleagues gathered
data from focus groups to understand the discourse
amongst final-year health professional students,
including nurses, talking about nurses and nursing.
Thomas’s interest in gender issues stems from his
PhD research. His thesis, ‘The construction of the
other: On being a man and a nurse’, researched at
The University of Auckland, was a critical discourse
analysis of gender and the social construction of
men as nurses. It questioned why nursing has been
reified as women’s work and challenges the myths and
stereotypes of men, masculinity and caring, including the
construction of men who are nurses as gay. His analysis
is informed by masculinity theory and queer theory.
The background to Thomas’s discourse analysis comes
from his interest in history, particularly men in nursing
history. Describing men as an invisible force, Thomas
documents accounts of men in roles such as orderlies
and stretcher bearers in battlefields of old where they
cared for the wounded. He traces the influences of
warfare and Christianity in the evolution of modern
nursing and men’s involvement in the care of the ill. He
also traces cultural origins of terminology associated
with gendered roles in nursing, such as the notions
of chivalry, service, protection and dichotomies that
cast female nurses as either sex agents or angels.
With several others in the School of Nursing, Thomas
is currently working on a project to document the
35-year history of nurse education in this institute.

Education Through DramaAs a recently appointed Associate Professor in the School of Education,
Dr Viv Aitken brings to EIT her interest in the Arts and their place in
Primary School education. This interest follows two trajectories, education
in the Arts and education through the Arts, particularly drama.
Viv teaches in the Bachelor of Teaching (Primary)
and advocates for the Arts as central in childhood
learning. Even before children begin school, the Arts
are their central means of exploring their world.
Viv writes, “Young children spontaneously dance,
build imaginary worlds, take delight in colour, shape,
textures, and play with sound and rhythm”. Such
playfulness in early childhood learning, however, can
sometimes be disrupted by a school’s focus on linear
progress and an emphasis on literacy and numeracy.
Viv is particularly passionate about drama as a
way to get learners excited, curious and inspired
about learning. Her research focuses on education
through drama (sometimes called process drama,
or drama for learning) which she says has a unique
capacity for bringing learning alive and shifting the
traditional power relationships between teachers and
learners. In the past she has researched the impacts
of teaching in role and she has worked extensively
in drama with adults with intellectual disability.
Viv’s current research focus is Dorothy Heathcote’s
‘Mantle of the Expert’ approach. This uses drama as
a teaching strategy to increase student engagement
and learning right across the curriculum. It does so
by bringing the real world into the classroom via the
imagination. Participants are invited to act as if they are
a team of experts fulfilling a difficult job for a high status
client. The process is sustained over several weeks and
although the situations are imaginary the learning is very
real. Children master skills and solve problems as they
move in and out of role, explore multiple perspectives
and shift through time and context to pursue their
goal. As they do so, they develop both curriculum
knowledge and wider learning about values, ethics,
consequences and social justice issues. Viv has supported
teachers in a number of schools around New Zealand
to learn about and implement this approach and she
convenes the website www.mantleoftheexpert.co.nz .
Viv was part of a team of researchers who explored
Mantle of the Expert and other Arts-based integration
approaches, working alongside teachers in seven
New Zealand primary schools. Key findings from this
study were a marked increase in student engagement,
improved achievement and higher order thinking
and enhanced social health within the class. The
impact on student written work was particularly
striking. Viv is currently writing a book about planning
in Mantle of the Expert with two international
collaborators, due for publication late in 2016.

Te Hoe Nukuroa - Ancient Paddles that are Still Traversing the GlobeAssociate Professor Steve Gibbs’ research journey has followed the passage
to Europe of ancient hoe (paddles) which travelled with Captain James
Cook when he returned from his first visit to New Zealand in 1769.
On a recent hikoi to Europe Steve visited museums
in England, Scotland and Germany, where some
of these hoe are currently housed, to find and
document them as part of Cook’s collection. The trip
followed six years of research to locate the hoe and,
so far, Steve has viewed ten of them and become
aware of a further eight in Austria and Italy.
This project, Te Hoe Nukuroa, forms part of Steve’s
PhD study at Massey University which is to locate,
analyse and document the design systems of the hoe.
Carved and painted, they are the oldest examples of
kowhaiwhai painting in the world. The painting of hoe
progressed to the painting of interiors in Māori meeting
houses. Steve’s visual analysis of the hoe contributes
to understanding the history of Māori painting and
design systems, as connected to those who created
the hoe. Thus they are stories about the people, their
origins, indigenous voices and the intellectual processes
of creativity. They are very much a visual language.
Steve has a special interest in te hoe, which Māori traded
with Cook when he was becalmed off Whareongonga,
as they were carved and painted by members of Steve’s
mother’s Ngai Tāmanuhuri and Rongowhakaata whānau.
When Steve visited the museums which currently house
them the curators were generally enthusiastic about his
interest, seeing him as the face of the creators. He was
there in many capacities, however - as a researcher from
Toihoukura, an iwi representative of Ngai Tāmanuhuri, a
Tairāwhiti Museum board member and an artist. While
the museums were happy for Steve to look at the hoe,
they were less enthusiastic about having him touch them.
Steve’s ultimate vision is for all of them to be returned
permanently to New Zealand but he acknowledges this
is unlikely and is hopeful that some may be loaned for
commemorative exhibitions. In the meantime, he sees
digital repatriation as a do-able short term option, using
technology to establish the genealogical connection
and allowing people here to experience their beauty.
Steve’s ongoing creative practice is inspired by te
hoe. He is working on a series of art works based
on his analysis of them as exquisite objects of art
as well as functional tools and cultural statements
about old technologies. It is their creative magic that
captures him most and drives his interest in sharing
the mystique with the people to whom it belongs.
