Welcome to the Identity in Aotearoa page, linked to your 202 Assessment sheet
provided to you by your teacher.
A quick way to find out more about NZ gangs, Bill Payne OR Tuhoe Isaac is to do an internet search but remember to think critically about which websites you use. For example, the Te Ara website is probably more reliable than Wikipedia.
Remember you need to produce your own work and say (cite) where it came from. A great tool for this (using the APA referencing style) is BibMe. I have added a YouTube video at the bottom of the page that walks you through this very simple process.
