A Learning Exchange

At the heart of all we do is a learning exchange. By contributing teachers or resourcing, schools are able to enrol learners into any programme in the exchange. Anyone can participate though. Whether school or individual. Everyone is a part of a reciprocal environment. NetNZ leads this environment, ensuring quality learning experiences through partnership with participating schools.

Teachers benefit from a diverse online community, connecting with colleagues across New Zealand while maintaining ties to their local communities.

Students benefit from interacting with peers from different regions, learning to engage constructively online while appreciating the value of local connections.

How Does It Work?

Diverse Learning Community

NetNZ programmes typically include 10-20 learners from 5-12 different schools across New Zealand. This diverse setup allows students to engage with peers from various locations, creating a rich and collaborative learning environment.

Centralised Online Hub

Each course features an online hub using platforms like Google Spaces or Mattermost. This hub serves as the focal point for asynchronous learning and interaction, centralising all activities, resources, communication, discussions, and collaboration. Each school designates a learning support person, known as an eDean, who provides on-site support for learners and acts as the point of contact for the online teacher.

 

Synchronous Sessions

All programmes include a weekly 60-minute synchronous or real-time session where all learners gather with their teacher(s) using Google Meet. These sessions facilitate live interaction and teaching. Teachers also use synchronous technology flexibly, offering one-to-one support or gathering small groups of learners for specific purposes as needed.
