Abstract:
Child-centeredness is a pedagogical approach common in US early childhood education, one that advocates young children should direct their own learning and excercise individual choice in activitites. This approach is reflected in national US Head Start policy. Using multivocal, video-cued, and traditional ethnographic methods, this study presents an analysis of interview data collected from three focus groups with American Samoan teachers to argue that the child-centered approach in newly adopted performance standards may not actually be child-centered, particuarly when ignoring the knowledge

We explored the associations of collective self-esteem and parent educational practices with school engagement in a sample of 128 Samoan middle and high school students in an urban school district. Simultaneous regression analysis revealed that each of these independent variables contributed to significant variance in school engagement. Specifically, the overall regression model accounted for 22% of the variance in school engagement. Collective self-esteem was the most significant association, followed by parent educational practices. Implications discuss how we must consider Samoan and other

This chapter tackles the issue of how success was defined and measured in the modernization-diffusion paradigm by focusing on three early projects for using the technology of television for teaching purposes, along with their distinct outcomes. It asks how communication as well as information and communication technologies (ICTs) achieve their goals of social change and how we can demonstrate their success. It also explores the working assumptions of educational technology within the general communication for development (c4d) discourse before discussing the three educational television initia

Abstract:
Novelist, short story writer, and essayist Ann Pancake was born in Richmond, Virginia. Her upbringing in Romney and Summerville, West Virginia—an area sometimes referred to as “the heart of coal country”—lies at the heart of her fiction. But that experience is also filtered through her education at West Virginia University (BA), the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (MA), and the University of Washington (PhD), as well as her experience teaching English in American Samoa, Japan, and Thailand. Her fiction examines class, Appalachian otherness, environmental and social justice, and ecology....
