Abstract

The quality of educator-student relationships is a cornerstone of successful teaching and learning, especially within the context of adult education. This research explores the importance of building positive, trust-based relationships between educators and students through the application of the Kaupapa Wananga Model of Practice (KWMP). The aim of this study is to foster stronger communication channels and more meaningful connections between educators and their future adult learners, ultimately enriching the educational experience. Conducted as Classroom Action Research (CAR), the study progressed through five phases: planning, implementation, observation, reflection, and evaluation. Each phase was meticulously documented, ensuring comprehensive data collection from various sources, including classroom observations, students' practicum work, and final presentations of their teaching philosophies, grounded in the Ako-Based Practice Framework.
