Table of Contents: 

Definitions of culture -- Some examples of mis-communication (From Metge) -- Some commonly held viewpoints of Pakeha teachers of Maori children that can be barriers to effective communication -- a) The cultural deprivation view or 'deficit' view -- b) The 'cultural difference' viewpoint -- c) denial of cultural differences -- References.

Content Description: 

"The object of this paper is NOT to provide a formula for effective cross-cultural communication. (It would be arrogant of me to suggest that i could provide such a formula). Rather the intention is to highlight some of the factors that can influence the effectiveness of cross-cultural communication and involves dealing with such questions as: Who wants to communicate whith whom? Why? For what purpose? What are some of the barriers to effective cross-cultural communication?"

Content Description: 

"In 1990 it may be relatively easy to set up state-funded schools in New Zealand which do not teach in English. Although many countries have parallel school systems teaching in different languages, somehow, in Australia and New Zealand the idea seems strange. What are the facts about going to school in a language which is not the major language? Does it hurt?"
