"The papers, in this volume, are the students' assignments from Paper 297404, Koloa'iaAotearoa: Indigenous and Migrant Education III taught in 2015 and 2016. The manuscripts were prepared as presentations on their understanding of the conceptual framework of the degree, namely, FatuLālanga and TalanoaLālanga and their perspective of koloa'ia from their own cultural standpoint. The researched materials were written up, discussed, questioned and presented individually, for half an hour including questioning time. To be fair on the students, they were not coached to rewrite their presentations for publication and therefore I humbly ask the readers to 'hear' the written word, in these pages, as spoken words from the heart of each student while they express their experience of spiritual wisdoms and research knowledges." -- Foreword.
