Education researchers look abroad to improve NZ
Fulbright New Zealand and the Cognition Institute have selected two researchers from different branches of the education sector for exchanges to the United States of America in 2011 – one a practising teacher and the other a university academic. Ngaire Addis from Havelock North High School and Dr Veronica O’Toole from the University of Canterbury are the two recipients of Fulbright-Cognition Scholar Awards in Education Research for 2011, and will each spend several months in the US conducting research aimed at improving aspects of the schooling system in New Zealand.
