We encourage you to show our introductory promo image and video (provided in the next section) during the first class of the semester. This can be an excellent icebreaker and works best if you recruit your Class Representatives during this initial class or, at the latest, within the first three weeks of lectures. Further down the page, you’ll find a list of the benefits students gain by engaging with the programme.
Teaching staff are responsible for requesting that at least one student from each paper volunteers as a Class Representative. For large classes, we recommend a ratio of no fewer than one representative per 40 students. Students can self-nominate, and the more representatives per class, the more effective the system becomes, as responsibilities and workload are shared. Unless there are objections, all volunteers should generally be accepted as Class Representatives, as this role offers valuable opportunities for developing co-curricular skills.
Please allow your Class Representatives a few minutes to introduce themselves to the class.
Te Tira Ahu Pae will coordinate the programme and provide training for the Class Representatives.
Class Representative training will take place in Week Three of the semester. Please ensure your Class Representatives have registered well before this date, so they receive an invitation to the training session.
If you are unable to recruit a Class Representative, please let the Class Representative Administrator know.
