  • A Community Approach to Introducing Young Children to Early Mathematics: a Study of Kosraean Preschool Children in Their Homes
    A COMMUNITY APPROACH TO INTRODUCING YOUNG CHILDREN TO EARLY MATHEMATICS: A STUDY OF KOSRAEAN PRESCHOOL CHILDREN IN THEIR HOMES A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN EDUCATION DECEMBER 2014 By Tulensru Waguk Dissertation Committee: Neil Pateman, Chairperson Sandy Dawson Betsy Brenner Tom Craven Jerry Lipka ABSTRACT This study seeks to determine the impact of parents at home on the development of mathematical concepts among young children of preschool age. This study also looks into the influences of other members of the family, relatives, and the community in the mathematics development of the child-research participant. It focuses on the influences of parents and other members of the family to their children’s mathematics learning at home or in the community The study seeks to answer the following questions: 1. How do parents influence preschool children’s mathematics learning? 2. How do other members of the family and people in the community contribute to the mathematics development of preschool children? To seek answers to these questions, case studies of families were developed from focus group meetings, interviews with parents, observations of children at their homes, and parents’ diaries of children activities, which were kept in the home. Findings suggest that the various environments; although they are all island environments, differently influence both the development of mathematical language and the range of mathematics activities in the homes and community in which each child lives. The nuclear family influences, the extended family influences, and neighbors’ influences contributed to the mathematics development of each child.

  • 49450-023: Renewable Energy Development Project
    Resettlement Plan 49450-023 Date: July 2019 (Draft) Federated States of Micronesia: Renewable Energy Development Project Prepared by the Ministry of Finance, Federated States of Micronesia, for the Asian Development Bank. This Resettlement Plan is a document of the borrower. The views expressed herein do not necessarily represent those of ADB's Board of Directors, Management, or staff, and may be preliminary in nature. In preparing any country program or strategy, financing any project, or by making any designation of or reference to a particular territory or geographic area in this document, the Asian Development Bank does not intend to make any judgments as to the legal or other status of any territory or area. Executive Summary The Asian Development Bank (ADB) Pacific Renewable Energy Investment Facility (PREIF) is financing a series of small-value renewable energy projects in the 11 smaller Pacific island countries (PIC-11). The Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) Renewable Energy Development Project is a technical assistance project carried out under PREIF and supported with grant funding from ADB. The project consultant (Entura) was contracted to carry out feasibility studies on potential renewable energy infrastructure subprojects in all four states of the FSM (Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei, and Kosrae). ADB has subsequently removed the proposed subprojects in Chuuk State and in Pohnpei State from inclusion in the current round of funding. This Resettlement Plan (RP) thus concerns potential land acquisition and resettlement impacts of proposed subprojects in Yap State and in Kosrae State (only). Yap subprojects: Subproject 1.
