Utilizing Distributed Ledger Technology to Integrate Anglophone and Indigenous Pedagogies in the 21St Century – the Case for Hawaii Utilizing Distributed Ledger Technology to Integrate Anglophone and Indigenous Pedagogies in the 21st Century – The Case for Hawaii by GREGORY HOWARD JACKSON Thesis submitted for the Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Education The University of Buckingham March 2020 Title: Utilizing Distributed Ledger Technology to Integrate Anglophone and Indigenous Pedagogies in the 21st Century – The Case for Hawaii Author: Gregory Howard Jackson ABSTRACT The emergence of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) is rapidly transforming many global industries influenced by the growth and use of artificial intelligence (AI), distributed ledger technology (DLT), ubiquitous cloud and edge computing as well as other emerging digital platform-based systems. Mobile technologies and their use and adoption in education have generated research concerning new approaches for technology-enhanced learning (TEL), including mobile learning (m-learning). The evolution of TEL and recent research on m-learning and ubiquitous learning (u-learning) offer the potential for a new phase of educational delivery marked by a continuity of the learning experience across different learning settings using the mobile device as the mediator. Chan and colleagues use the term “seamless learning” to describe these new affordances. Indigenous peoples have historically experienced both the positive and negative effects of being educated within the Anglophone tradition. American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian students have had the highest high-school dropout rates of any racial or ethnic groups in the United States and are the least represented on college campuses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. This thesis has selected the Native Hawaiian indigenous culture for in-depth analysis. It examines the epistemological and ontological underpinnings of the Native Hawaiian worldview and the educational history of indigenous Hawaiians in the State of Hawaii, both ancient and modern. In addition, it examines the potential for the synthesis of the Anglophone and Native Hawaiian pedagogical traditions in order to improve educational outcomes for these and other indigenous students attending United States public schools. Since the early 1960s, the education of Native Hawaiians in the State of Hawaii has undergone a gradual systemic transformation that has led to improved outcomes. To that end, the Hawaiian language, cultural values, and the use of traditional pedagogies have blossomed, primarily due to the establishment of indigenous-led Hawaiian culture-based education (CBE) initiatives and scholarship. Moreover, the creation of a growing number of Hawaiian Language Immersion and Public Charter Schools has elevated these CBE pedagogies to a new level of importance within the public education system of Hawaii. While significant challenges to increased progress remain, the innovative use of a cultural strengths-based approach has succeeded in addressing several of the historical barriers hindering Native Hawaiian student motivation and engagement in education. In addition, empirical research conducted in Hawaii has verified a CBE model framework capable of improving indigenous student outcomes within the Anglophone traditions of the United States educational system. This thesis examines the potential for the integration of traditional Anglophone and indigenous pedagogies implemented through mobile seamless learning modalities. It analyses the significant synergies available through the utilization of DLT and Hyperledger applications for the facilitation of seamless learning interactions between providers and seekers of education when structured within a new integrative model. It also examines the unexplored gaps in the research associated with mobile-assisted seamless learning (MSL) and recommends the potential application of the model design to close those gaps, increase the seamlessness of MSL and propel learning opportunities. The model is then situated within both the Anglophone and Native Hawaiian pedagogical traditions in order to illustrate the MSL affordances available for both educators and mobile indigenous learners. Finally, several use cases of the integrative model are provided to demonstrate its flexibility and extendibility in different m-learning and other indigenous and traditional learning environments. While not a comprehensive or complete solution, this integrative model nonetheless has implications for future research as well as potentially broad applications for indigenous communities to collaborate and share their knowledge at a lower cost, and for educators and students worldwide to benefit mutually as the Fourth Industrial Revolution advances. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Ronald E.

Farnham ABSTRACT The purpose of this thesis is to explore the ways in which working-class Kānaka Hawai’i (Hawaiian) immigrants in the nineteenth century repurposed and repackaged precontact Hawai’i strategies of accommodation and resistance in their migration towards North America and particularly within California. The arrival of European naturalists, American missionaries, and foreign merchants in the Hawaiian Islands is frequently attributed for triggering this diaspora. However, little has been written about why Hawaiian immigrants themselves chose to migrate eastward across the Pacific or their reasons for permanent settlement in California. Like the ali’i on the Islands, Hawaiian commoners in the diaspora exercised agency in their accommodation and resistance to Pacific imperialism and colonialism as well. Blending labor history, religious history, and anthropology, this thesis adopts an interdisciplinary and ethnohistorical approach that utilizes Hawaiian-language newspapers, American missionary letters, and oral histories from California’s indigenous peoples.

  • Hawaiʻi's Big Five
    Hawaiʻi’s Big Five (Plus 2) “By 1941, every time a native Hawaiian switched on his lights, turned on the gas or rode on a street car, he paid a tiny tribute into Big Five coffers.” (Alexander MacDonald, 1944) The story of Hawaii’s largest companies dominates Hawaiʻi’s economic history. Since the early/mid- 1800s, until relatively recently, five major companies emerged and dominated the Island’s economic framework. Their common trait: they were focused on agriculture - sugar. They became known as the Big Five: C. Brewer (1826;) Theo H. Davies (1845;) Amfac - starting as Hackfeld & Company (1849;) Castle & Cooke (1851) and Alexander & Baldwin (1870.) C. Brewer & Co.

Actually, only Castle & Cooke has direct ties to the mission. However, Castle ran the ‘depository’ and Cooke was a teacher, neither were missionary ministers. Alexander & Baldwin were sons of missionaries, but not a formal part of the mission.

  • The Aliʻi, the Missionaries and Hawaiʻi
    The Aliʻi, the Missionaries and Hawaiʻi Hawaiian Mission Houses’ Strategic Plan themes note that the collaboration between Native Hawaiians and American Protestant missionaries resulted in the • The introduction of Christianity; • The development of a written Hawaiian language and establishment of schools that resulted in widespread literacy; • The promulgation of the concept of constitutional government; • The combination of Hawaiian with Western medicine, and • The evolution of a new and distinctive musical tradition (with harmony and choral singing). The Aliʻi, the Missionaries and Hawaiʻi The Aliʻi, the Missionaries and Hawaiʻi On October 23, 1819, the Pioneer Company of American Protestant missionaries from the northeast US, led by Hiram Bingham, set sail on the Thaddeus for the Hawaiian Islands. The Mission Prudential Committee in giving instructions to the pioneers of 1819 said: “Your mission is a mission of mercy, and your work is to be wholly a labor of love. … Your views are not to be limited to a low, narrow scale, but you are to open your hearts wide, and set your marks high. You are to aim at nothing short of covering these islands with fruitful fields, and pleasant dwellings and schools and churches, and of Christian civilization.” (The Friend) Over the course of a little over 40-years (1820-1863 - the “Missionary Period”,) about 180-men and women in twelve Companies served in Hawaiʻi to carry out the mission of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM) in the Hawaiian Islands. Collaboration between native Hawaiians and the American Protestant missionaries resulted in, among other things, the introduction of Christianity, the creation of the Hawaiian written language, widespread literacy, the promulgation of the concept of constitutional government, making Western medicine available and the evolution of a new and distinctive musical tradition (with harmony and choral singing).

  • Chiefs-Childrens-School-Hale-Kula
    Hale Kula Ali‘i Hale Kula Ali‘i, the Chiefs’ Children’s School (later called the Royal School), was created by King Kamehameha III; the main goal of this school was to groom the next generation of the highest-ranking chief's children of the realm and secure their positions for Hawaii's Kingdom. Seven families were eligible under succession laws stated in the 1840 Constitution of the Kingdom of Hawai‘i; Kamehameha III called on seven boys and seven girls of his family to board in the Chief’s Children’s School. In 1839, King Kamehameha III, Hoapili and Kekāuluohi (mother of William Charles Lunalilo, who became the Kuhina Nui or regent of the Hawaiian Kingdom) signed a letter asking missionaries to run the Chiefs’ Children’s School. (The letter (in Hawaiian) is on the following page.) It translates to: Greetings to all of you, the teachers, Heed this all of you, all teachers. We are asking for Mr. Cooke to be a teacher for our chiefly children. He will be the instructor for the royal children. Also Dr. Judd, to take care of the chiefly children. For we are securing Dr. Judd for the good of the children and to resolve any difficulties between us and all of you. Kamehameha III Hoapili Kekāuluohi In a missionary general meeting, “This subject was fully considered in connection with an application of the chiefs requesting the services of Mr. Cooke, as a teacher for their children; and it was voted, That the mission comply with their request, provided they will carry out their promise to Mr.

Puakea Nogelmeier DEDICATION In memory of Alton R. Brown and Steven Y. Kimura. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This journey, which has ended with a doctoral degree after eleven years and three months of being a student, began long before I decided, at forty-two, to enroll as a freshman in the University of Hawaiʻi System. Looking back, I can now clearly see the path that led me to this point. Along the way I was guided, protected, assisted, and inspired by ka poʻe akua, poʻe ʻaumākua, ka poʻe kūpuna, my ʻohana, my children, my friends, my kumu, and my students. As a Kanaka Maoli, I am deeply motivated by aloha and mahalo for the ʻāina, my kūpuna, and my fellow Kānaka Maoli—past and present. They have been at the forefront of my mind in any intellectual efforts I have produced, and will continue to inspire my future research. To all the intellectuals whose efforts have paved the way for my own, and whose works have influenced me, I am beholden. A special thanks to my dissertation chair Craig Howes whose tireless efforts have made me a better scholar. Three of my committee members are long-time mentors, Puakea Nogelmeier, kuʻualoha hoʻomanawanui, and Cristina Bacchilega, and I am eternally indebted to them.

Shankar Noenoe K. Silva Keywords: Translation, ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi, Hawaiian newspapers, ea, mana ABSTRACT Translation has had a huge impact on Hawaiian history, both as it unfolded and how it came to be understood, yet it remains mostly invisible and understudied in contemporary Hawaiian scholarship. The study of translation is uniquely suited for examining the power dynamics of languages, and how these differential forces play out on ideological and political battlefields, particularly in colonial situations. By providing a historical overview of the material practices of translation from the kingdom era until today, this dissertation makes legible some of the unseen operations of translation and points to its importance as an analytical frame for Hawaiian history. Individual chapters focus on major moments of translation from the advent of Hawaiian literacy to contemporary struggles over language and land: the translation of the Bible into Hawaiian, the establishment and modification of the kingdom’s bi-lingual legal system, Hawaiians’ powerful deployment of translation in the nūpepa, the twentieth century production of extractive scholarly translations, and contemporary refusals to translate. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS He lau, he mano, he kini, he lehu hoʻi.

Copyright, 1930, Honolulu Star-Bulletin, Limited Honolulu, Territory of Hawaii. U.S.A. FOREWORD “ EN OF HAWAII,’ is the fourth volume of bio­ graphical records in the regular series which has been published, beginning with l9l7, by The Honolulu Star­ Bulletin. This series aims to make available for the present, and to preserve for the future, the life stories of leaders in various fields of the Hawaiian Islands. It is a history of community and territorial progress, told in the form of biographical sketches, and the steady demand for the editions of previous years has abundantly illustrated its interest and its value. Both as a record of enterprise and achievement, and as a compilation of chronological facts, “Nlen of Hawaii" has be­ -comea standard reference work in Hawaii and abroad. Copies are sent all over the world. Libraries in distant cities call for the succeeding editions. Locally, the book is constantly in use. This book is Volume IV of “lVlen of Hawaii.” The first edition was in l9l7, the second in l9Zl, the third in I925. To a certain degree the present edition supplements and com­ plements “Builders of Hawaii” U925), with which was incorporated that year’s edition of ‘‘Men of Hawaii.” For the broadest coverage of Hawaiian biographical record, "Builders of Hawaii" and this l930 edition of ‘‘Men of Hawaii" should be treated as one work, and so maintained in reference libraries.
