This article argues that the success or otherwise of language immersion programmes, in particular within Māori-medium educational settings, depend as much on the skills and strategies of the student as on those of the teacher. Raising the language-learning skills of the students in non-immersion Māori language programmes would likewise be beneficial. A strategy, called the deliberate acts of language learning (DALLs), is presented as a solution. Downloads Download PDF Citation Lowman, C. (2019).
