E Moʻolelo Kākou
E Moʻolelo Kākou
E Moʻolelo Kākou was a professional development series offered through a partnership with the Hawaiʻi Department of Education's (HIDOE), Office of Hawaiian Education (OHE) and the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, College of Education's Aupuni Palapala program. The intent of E Moʻolelo Kākou was to use moʻolelo or storytelling as a way to bring community to learn and share with and from each other.
This series was originally developed in 2020 at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic to connect educators, help them adapt to virtual learning and to share resources to strengthen and maintain educator positivity, gratitude, and total well-being during uncertain, changing, and stressful times. E Moʻolelo Kākou hoped to convene HIDOE stakeholders and community to:
Develop and strengthen relationships with educators across our paeʻāina
Strengthen integration of Hawaiian values, language, culture and history into curriculum, instruction, and assessment
Share and learn new knowledge and skills through featured guest speakers and experts
