Interviews with these students and with less-educated fellow islanders were taped to: 1) ascertain which aspects of the aboriginal belief structure, as preserved in oral tradition, have been most resistant to change; and, 2) an attempt to establish if the students are fairly representative of their traditional belief and value system despite their American-sponsored educations. Some of the findings were: that student belief in, and knowledge of the old mythological and cosmological constructs was generally low; that belief was high in magic, native medicine, and spirits; and that young and old alike were receptive to attempts at cultural preservations. The report contains a summary of the study, a discussion of study background, a description of methods used in collection of the folktales, analyses of the oral traditions, 16 references, and a bibliography containing over 100 entries.

    New Records of Butterflies (Lepidoptera) from the Eastern Caroline Islands, Micronesia1 Donald W. Buden,2,5 Donald P. Sands,3 and W. John Tennent4 Abstract: Twenty-three new locality records are presented for nine species of butterflies (Lepidoptera) from 11 islands and island groups in the eastern Car- oline Islands, Micronesia. None is endemic; most occur widely in the Indo- Australian region and the islands of the western Pacific. The Lycaenidae were the most well-represented family with at least eight species. The nymphalid Hypolimnas bolina was the most frequently encountered species, occurring on all 11 island groups. Pakin Atoll, which was visited on two different occasions for a total of 5 days, was the only island group visited during this study where but- terflies were not seen. The butterfly fauna of Micronesia has contributes new locality records based largely never been comprehensively assessed.

The active participation of the various segments of our community was encouraging and reaffirms the con- cerns they are now facing and the eagerness to address risk to disaster risk and climate change. The con- tributions made by the government representatives, Mayors, Traditional Leaders, Church leaders, women groups, youth groups and persons with disabilities were very valuable and ensuring that the plan is realistic and relevant. The leadership displayed by the Chuuk Disaster Emergency Operation Centre Coordination Office (CDEOC), FSM’s Office of Environment and Emergency Management (OEEM) and the Pacific Community (SPC) is greatly appreciated in supporting the development of this plan. The funding support from the European Union through the EU ACP Building Safety and Resilience in the Pacific (BSRP) project being implemented by SPC is greatly appreciated without which the development of the plan would not have been impossible. 4 CHUUK JOINT STATE ACTION PLAN ON DISASTER RISK MANAGEMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE

  • Secondary and Postsecondary Math Education in Chuuk State, Federated States of Micronesia
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 401 107 SE 059 018 AUTHOR Patacsil, Peter E. TITLE Secondary and Postsecondary Math Education in Chuuk State, Federated States of Micronesia. PUB DATE 95 NOTE 16p. PUB TYPE Reports Descriptive (141) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Educational Quality; Foreign Countries; Higher Education; *Mathematics Education; Secondary Education; *Teacher Education IDENTIFIERS *Federated States of Micronesia ABSTRACT The public high school and three private high schools in Chuuk State (formerly called Truk), Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), are located on the main island of Weno. This report documents the present state of secondary and postsecondary mathematics education in Chuuk State. The information is primarily based on interviews with administrators and mathematics teachers at both the secondary and postsecondary levels in Chuuk State. It is reported that the quality of mathematics education varies from school to school ranging from an evolving system at the public high school to high quality and a commitment to excellence at Xavier High School, one of two Catholic high schools on the island. Except for these two catholic schools, there appears to be a shortage of mathematics teachers at the secondary level. The associate degree and three of the four certificate programs offered by the extension center of the College of Micronesia (COM) specify mathematics requirements. However, data indicate that COM's Chuuk State campus has difficulty in recruiting and retaining mathematics instructors. It was concluded that there is a shortage of mathematics teachers both at the secondary and postsecondary level in Chuuk State.
