  • Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands
    Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands First compiled by Nancy Sack and Gwen Sinclair Updated by Nancy Sack Current to January 2020 Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands Background An inquiry from a librarian in Micronesia about how to identify subject headings for the Pacific islands highlighted the need for a list of authorized Library of Congress subject headings that are uniquely relevant to the Pacific islands or that are important to the social, economic, or cultural life of the islands. We reasoned that compiling all of the existing subject headings would reveal the extent to which additional subjects may need to be established or updated and we wish to encourage librarians in the Pacific area to contribute new and changed subject headings through the Hawai‘i/Pacific subject headings funnel, coordinated at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.. We captured headings developed for the Pacific, including those for ethnic groups, World War II battles, languages, literatures, place names, traditional religions, etc. Headings for subjects important to the politics, economy, social life, and culture of the Pacific region, such as agricultural products and cultural sites, were also included. Scope Topics related to Australia, New Zealand, and Hawai‘i would predominate in our compilation had they been included. Accordingly, we focused on the Pacific islands in Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia (excluding Hawai‘i and New Zealand). Island groups in other parts of the Pacific were also excluded. References to broader or related terms having no connection with the Pacific were not included. Overview This compilation is modeled on similar publications such as Music Subject Headings: Compiled from Library of Congress Subject Headings and Library of Congress Subject Headings in Jewish Studies.

  • Weaving Māori and Pasifika Infant and Toddler Theory and Practice in Early Childhood Education
    Te Whātu Kete Mātauranga: Weaving Māori and Pasifika infant and toddler theory and practice in early childhood education Lesley Rameka, Ali Glasgow, Patricia Howarth, Tracey Rikihana, Cindy Wills, Tracey Mansell, Feauai Burgess, Sadie Fiti, Bridget Kauraka, and Rita Iosefo October 2017 Introduction Early childhood education has an important role in building strong learning foundations to enable young children to develop as competent and confident learners. The need for more work on how early childhood education can better support Māori and Pasifika children to reach their potential is highlighted in findings from the Education Review Office (ERO) report,Success for Māori Children in Early Childhood Services (ERO, 2010). This report argued that services lacked strategies that focused upon Māori children as learners and, despite often including statements about Māori values, beliefs, and intentions in their documentation, these were very rarely evident in practice. A nationwide review of Pasifika literature also identified a need for comprehensive evaluative research on Pasifika early childhood education to further achievement outcomes for children (Chu, Glasgow, Rimoni, Hodis, & Meyer, 2013). There is a noticeable gap in the literature with regard to Māori and Pasifika theory and practice in early childhood provision. Despite a reasonably extensive array of literature on Māori and Pasifika images of the child, childrearing, and education, there is very little on infants and toddlers and even less that provides understanding, framings, and guidance for contemporary mainstream early childhood service provision. This project aimed to address this gap. It explored how early childhood services could better integrate culture into teaching practices by creating culturally located teaching and learning theory, and practice guidelines for early childhood services.

  • Ko Toku Reo Ko Toku Ia Mana
    KO TOKU REO KO TOKU IA MANA: MY LANGUAGE, MY IDENTITY THE PACIFIC LANGUAGE NEST HOW LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND TRADITIONS ARE SUPPORTED AND PROMOTED FOR PACIFIC COMMUNITIES OF THE COOK ISLANDS, NIUE AND TOKELAU IN AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND BY ALLIE AILSA HELEN GLASGOW A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education Victoria University of Wellington 2019 Abstract Within the early childhood sector of New Zealand, Pacific language nests have played a pivotal role in promoting Pacific education, language development and building Pacific communities. Pacific Island language nests have emerged as foundational contexts that have facilitated learning, family and community engagement as well as promoting cultural aspirations. This study focusses on the Pacific Nations of the Cook Islands, Niue and Tokelau Islands; all share the status of New Zealand Realm states, and have languages which are at extreme risk of language death. This research examines the extent to which families and communities engage with the language nests. It investigates challenges that impact on the support and promotion of language, culture and traditions for the Pacific language nest. This study explores practices and processes in the Pacific language nest, and how these practices are evolving and adapting within the contemporary early childhood education sector. Using a combination of Sociocultural and Indigenous theoretical framings, I apply an ethnographic approach to three case study settings. Applying the methods of observation, talanoa (informal group discussion), document, video and audio analysis, and reflective field notes applied in the study, and guidance of a Pacific advisory group I seek out the cultural, social and linguistic conceptualisations and practices that take place in the Cook Islands, Niuean and Tokelauan language nest settings.

  • The Case of Definite and Indefinite Articles1 Matthew S. Dryer Universit
    Competing Methods for Uncovering Linguistic Diversity: The Case of Definite and Indefinite Articles1 Matthew S. Dryer University at Buffalo 1. Introduction Davis, Gillon and Matthewson (hereafter Davis et al) argue that “hypothesis- driven fieldwork has led to a more complete and accurate picture of linguistic diversity than has been produced by methods which rely largely on extracting information from existing descriptive grammars”. They discuss five cases to support their conclusion. In this response, I will discuss only one of these cases, since this case involves two chapters of mine (Dryer 2005a, 2005b, 2013a, 2013b) in the World Atlas of Language Structures (Haspelmath et al 2005, Dryer and Haspelmath 2013) (hereafter the WALS atlas).2 These chapters deal with definite and indefinite articles among the languages of the world (though for reasons discussed in §6, I use these labels in a considerably broader sense than many would expect). I will argue that the research for these two chapters uncovered 1 I am indebted to Juergen Bohnemeyer, Martin Haspelmath, and Lea Brown for very helpful comments on an earlier draft of this paper. 2 The WALS atlas was originally published as a book (Haspelmath et al 2005) and since 2008 has existed online (http://wals.info/). Davis et al cite the 2011 online edition. The most recent edition is the 2013 edition, which differs in content from the 2011 edition only in correcting some errors. I cite the 2005 book edition as well since, as discussed below, a few properties of my WALS chapters on definite and indefinite articles need to be understood in the context of these chapters originally being part of an atlas in book form.

  • THE VOICES of TOKELAU YOUTH in NEW ZEALAND Na Mafialeo Onā Tupulaga Tokelau I Niu Hila
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ResearchArchive at Victoria University of Wellington THE VOICES OF TOKELAU YOUTH IN NEW ZEALAND Na mafialeo onā Tupulaga Tokelau i Niu Hila By Paula Kele-Faiva A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Pacific Studies Victoria University of Wellington 2010 2 ABSTRACT Tokelau is a minority group within New Zealand‟s larger Pacific community. New Zealand has a special relationship with the three small and very isolated atolls groups which make up Tokelau. The Tokelauan population in New Zealand is nearly five times that of the homelands. As a contribution to the global „Youth Choices Youth Voices‟ study of youth acculturation, this research also contributes to the experiences of Pacific youth in New Zealand. The focus of this study is on Tokelauan youth and explores the perceptions of a group of Wellington based Tokelauan youth on their identity, sense of belonging, connectedness and hopes for the future. Also, the views of a group of Tokelauan elders are presented to set the background for the youth voices to be understood. The aim of this qualitative study was to capture the unheard voice of the Tokelauan youth, to explore their stories and experiences so that the information provided will inform policy and programme planning for Tokelauan youth, as well as Pacific and other minority groups in New Zealand. Using talanoa methodology, a combination of group māopoopoga and individual in depth interviews, valuable knowledge was shared giving insights into the experiences, needs and future aspirations of Tokelauan youth in New Zealand.
