This action research project exploring successful teaching pedagogy for Pacific students in New Zealand was a collaboration of Whitireia Community Polytechnic, Unitec Institute of Technology and Massey University. The primary aims of the project were to: contribute to improved completion and success for Pacific students engaged in tertiary education through the articulation of a pedagogy of education that would enhance the likelihood of their success; provide a critique of institutional educational barriers that makes completion and success difficult for Pacific students; articulate a pedagogical framework for successful achievement for Pacific learners; work with collaborative partners/teaching teams to identify and articulate the systemic barriers to Pacific student success and demonstrate the effective transfer of knowledge embedded in a transformational pedagogical approach; and demonstrate leadership in the promotion of Pacific student success.
