Cultural Influences in Education
(HCIE) is a collaborative study by Kamehameha
Schools, the Department of Education, and
Nä Lei Naÿauao –alliance of Hawaiian focused
charter schools. HCIE examines relationships
among culture-based educational strategies
and socio-emotional development and educational
outcomes of students.
What is Culture-Based Education?
Culture-based education is the grounding
of instruction and student learning in the
values, norms, knowledge, beliefs, practices,
and language that are the foundation of
a(n indigenous) culture.
At the state, national, and international
levels, culture-based educational strategies
are increasingly being seen as a promising
means of addressing educational disparities
between indigenous students and their peers.
