However, the new version is on the framework. We’ve finished working on the new assessment standards. but they won’t be available until later this year. In the meantime, it’s time to start thinking about what the redesign of our course will look…

Should NZCALNE (Voc) Candidates write a report for their first assessment in the new qualification?
Please Vote In the existing version of the qualification – the NCALNE (Voc) – we have the option to include various electives. The one that we have used the most is Unit Standard 9685. This requires people to write an analytical report for their first assessment. This has worked well for us, because it allows…

How important is it that we also focus on ESOL learners in the new NZCALNE qualification?
Please Vote The new version of the adult literacy and numeracy education qualification includes a focus on English language learners. This increases the relevancy of the qualification for tutors who teaching English to speakers of other languages (ESOL). We’ll build this content in regardless, but what I’d like some feedback on is how important this is to…

Which Pasifika framework should we use for adult literacy and numeracy in the new NZCALNE (Voc)?
Please Vote This is new to the qualification. Unlike the Maori frameworks, Pasifika frameworks are less well known. Another issue is that there are frameworks that are specific to particular cultures and language groups. For example, I haven’t listed the individual frameworks in the poll, but they exist for Tokelauan, Cook Island Maori Tongan, Samoan,…
-
Which concepts from Te Ao Maori should we focus on in the new NZCALNE (Voc)…?
Please Vote Here’s another thing that I’d like some feedback on. In the new NZCALNE qualification, we have some flexibility over which concepts and approaches from learner-centred adult teaching. The range statement in the new unit standard is listed above in the poll. If you think they’re all equally important, then tick them all. Otherwise,…

Which frameworks from Te Ao Maori work best for adult literacy and numeracy?
Please Vote The new NZCALNE qualification allows for a more explicit focus on the different frameworks that should underpin our teaching. This includes frameworks from a Maori worldview perspective. One of the easiest Maori frameworks to communicate is Mason Durie’s Te Whare Tapawha framework. This got removed from the previous update to US21204, but we…
-
Which definitions should we use for literacy and numeracy in the new NZCALNE Course?
Please Vote Here’s another thing. Currently, we use the existing definitions published by the TEC for literacy and numeracy. We could change this and make use of other definitions. For example, the OECD have their own definitions. Let me know what you think? Chime in, in the comments, if you have more to say.

What’s going to replace the NCALNE? And do you want to help me design the new NZCALNE?
Please Vote We have some flexibility around how we structure the new version of the NCALNE (Voc) qualification. The new qualification, which will replace the old NCALNE over the next few years, is called the New Zealand Certificate in Adult Literacy & Numeracy Education (Vocational) – or NZCALNE (Voc) for short. The new unit standards…
