- Abstract
Āina-based initiatives are not only proliferating in Hawai'i communities, but also in academic institutions where interest in place-based education, sustainability education, and STEM has increased. In an effort to uphold the integrity of āina and promotes its integration into PreK-20 learning settings, this article describes characteristics of āina-based pedagogies as a Hawai'i approach to Indigenous land-based education. This research presents ancestral Hawaiian principles of āina-based pedagogies, along with the learning environments that āina-based education occurs in, common instructional approaches, fields of study, and purposes of application. Findings from this study ground āina-based learning in a Kanaka Ōiwi perspective and may assist others in designing āina-based learning experiences, strengthening their educational initiatives, and evaluating their programmatic outcomes.
