FALE Samoa [Samoan House] - Samoan
Courses Description
Head of Pathway: Matua G. Rudolph.
This Module invites you on an immersive journey into Samoan literacy, using the metaphor of the Fale Samoa (traditional Samoan house) as a framework. Just as the Fale Samoa is built on a foundation of community and shared knowledge, so too is Samoan literacy. We will use the Fale Framework to examine and reflect on our well-being and its connections to aiga (family), si’osi’omaga (environment/surroundings) and fa’asinomaga (identity). We will also study parts of the Fale and its social and cultural significance.
