    The intertwining of western and indigenous worldviews in education – An Aotearoa New Zealand case study in marketing education
    (2025-11-05) Tangiora, Hiraina; Arbouw, Paula; Vidwans, Mohini
    This study explores the integration of Te Ao Māori (the Māori worldview) and kaupapa Māori (Māori ideology) in education practice, using the case of the marketing discipline. The marketing academy acknowledges that a greater integration of Indigenous knowledge and worldviews is needed (Love & Hall, 2022). Specifically, Love and Hall (2022) call for cultural control, non-appropriation and participatory approaches. The well-known work of Smith (1999) in Decolonizing Methodologies provides guidance around conducting kaupapa Māori research, and Indigenous frameworks that acknowledge the value of drawing together two different knowledge streams, such as, He Ara Whiria Braided Rivers (Macfarlane, Macfarlane, & Gillon, 2015) and Two Eyed Seeing (Marshall & Bartlett, 2004), offer useful starting points. But practically implementing this in a way that is respectful of both (and indeed, all) worldviews, and puts the students first, remains a challenging endeavour for Indigenous and non-Indigenous educators alike. The authors’ empirical investigation on marketing practitioner’s perspectives on the use of Māori cultural elements highlighted a gap in existing education offerings, which saw the development of a bi-cultural marketing course at Lincoln University. However, scaling this in a way that is respectful and student-centric remains a challenging endeavour. This study seeks to draw out practical insights for those wishing to bring together differing, but complementary, knowledge streams in marketing education and beyond

    A global review of the trends and themes in polar tourism scholarship
    (CABI, 2024-12-23) Stewart, Emma; Liggett, D; Senigaglia, V; Botelho, LL; Badhe, R; Caymaz, E; Goh, HC; Gunnarsdóttir, GP; Inagaki, O; Lamers, M; Roldan, G; Simunaniemi, AM; Varnajot, A; Yermakova, Y; Zhang, M; Varnajot, A; Vereda, M; Ioannides, D
    In recent years, we have witnessed a proliferation in the scholarly output related to the study of polar tourism. Having made a first appearance as an area of research in its own right almost five decades ago, scholarship on polar tourism has undergone a significant transformation and is now more likely to be underpinned by empirical, multi-disciplinary, multi-authored and theoretically situated research than in the past. Updating previous reviews, this chapter systematically reviews 626 journal articles published on polar tourism (1974-2022) and identifies key research trends and themes. Following Stewart et al. (2005, 2017), a database of journal articles was updated through a keyword search of two online scholarly databases (Scopus and Google Scholar) and other regionally relevant search engines and compiled into a spreadsheet for analysis. The chapter extends the previous reviews by including articles published in languages other than English (22 languages). By doing so, this review presents, for the first time, a comprehensive overview of scholarly output on polar tourism, benefiting from the international research efforts that have been undertaken. While the chapter reports a dominance of anglophone articles (almost 75% of all papers), there is an upswing of scholarly work outside of the anglophone literature. This linguistic diversity stands us in good stead to advance our understanding of polar tourism in its many guises

    Quantifying nutrient harvest indices and uptake patterns for six hard spring wheat genotypes grown under contrasting nitrogen supply
    (Taylor & Francis Group, 2025-01) Chakwizira, E; Teixeira, Edmar; Moot, Derrick
    Wheat nutritional quality can be characterised by nutrient concentrations in the grain. This is the sum of nutrient uptake by the roots and re-translocation from other organs during grain filling. It is quantified by the Nutrient Harvest Index (NuHI: the fraction of total accumulated nutrient that is allocated to the grain). In contrast to nitrogen (NHI), there has been little quantification of NuHIs among modern hard spring wheat genotypes, when grown under contrasting N supply. We investigated NuHIs for six macro- and four micro-nutrients among six hard spring wheat genotypes, both under field and glasshouse conditions. There was consistency in element-specific NuHI values between experiments and amongst genotypes. Values ranged from 0.09 to 0.86, with highest NuHI found for phosphorus (P; 0.86) and N (0.82) and lowest values (<0.25) for calcium, copper, iron and potassium. NuHIs were higher under low N supply for all elements, except P, manganese and zinc, which were unaffected by N supply. This reflects the greater deposition of carbohydrate in higher yielding (N fertilised) crops. Thus, NuHIs for the hard spring wheat genotypes tested were highly element specific, and decreased with N supply within a given environment. HIGHLIGHTS Nutrient Harvest Index (NuHI) was similar between field and controlled environment NuHIs were consistent across six modern spring wheat genotypes NuHIs were in large element-specific ranging from 0.09 for potassium to 0.86 for phosphorus Limited N supply increased NuHIs mainly through reduced grain yield

    Cycling networks in urban areas: A longitudinal study of New Zealand's major cities
    (2025-09-08) Dyason, David; Coetzee, C; Kleynhans, E
    As cities grow, they increase in complexity, requiring the urban environment to adjust and respond in ways to effectively use land resources. In order to support city development, cycling is generally regarded as an alternative to motorised transportation that contributes to sustainable cities. In many cities worldwide, a common concern associated with investing in cycling infrastructure is the cost-use nexus. In other words, does the investment and economic cost associated with developing this infrastructure influence its use? This study considers the three largest cities within New Zealand namely Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington and use daily cycling counts that captures cycling volumes on designated cycling routes. New Zealand has historically had a high share of personal motor vehicle ownership and use, and the development of new cycling networks is often met with opposition from local businesses and property owners. We use a Geographically Weighted Regression which includes a continuous longitudinal dataset stretching between January 2018 and June 2024 with daily cycling counts to assess bicycle volumes at a country and city level. In general, these results indicate that cycling volumes for utilitarian use (that is to get to work) have a lower sensitivity to changes in distance compared to variations in weather conditions. At a city level, there are notable intercity differences in weather sensitivity. The results suggest that, although distance and precipitation have general effects, local factors, such as infrastructure quality, topography, weather adaptation measures and cultural attitudes toward cycling, play a critical role in modulating these relationships. The findings highlight the importance of city size and localised factors when planning urban cycleways in cities which will influence the transition from motorised to non-motorised transport

    Code classification as a learning and assessment exercise for novice programmers
    (NACCQ in cooperation with ACM SIGCSE, 2006) Thompson, E; Whalley, Jacqui; Lister, R; Simon, B; Mann, S; Bridgeman, N
    When students are given code that is very similar in structure or purpose, how well do they actually recognise the similarities and differences? As part of the BRACElet project, a multi-institutional investigation into reading and comprehension skills of novice programmers, students were asked to classify four code segments that found the minimum or maximum in an array of numbers. This paper reports on the analysis of responses to this question and draws conclusions about the students’ ability to recognise the similarities and differences in example code. It then raises questions with respect to an approach to teaching that uses variations in code examples
