New Zealand projects
Purpose
These curriculum projects are developed under the auspices of the Fulbright-Hays Seminars Abroad program. The projects are designed for the United States
curriculum to educate about aspects of New Zealand.
The projects express the opinions of the author and do not necessarily
reflect the opinions of Fulbright New Zealand.
Terms of use
Although designed for the United States curriculum, these projects
can be shared with the larger international education community and
adapted for individual use in institutions, schools, classrooms, and
communities.
