Maclay CONTRIBUTORS "10 THIS Ptin1 !CATION PREFACE This Volume consists of a number 61 selected papers presented to the Fifteenth Annual Conference of The Australian College of Education. The 'Conference was held at the University of Papua New Guinea . from 4 to 9 May, 1974 in conjunction with the Waigani Seminar. Joint sessions., were held as well as those for College Members. "Education in the South Pacific" was the theme of the Conference but aspects of Oducation in Papua New Guinea were tht subjects mostly covered in.the papers read. The Buntine Oration which given every second year in honour of the late Walter Murray Buntioe was delivered by Mr. Michael Somare, Chief Minister of P.N.G. a unique occasion never likely to occur again. The theme was divided into three general sections, viz.1. The Cultural Setting;2.Education Systems(Primary, Secondary, Tertiary & Further Education); 3. Curriculum Issues in developing countries. Two historical papers were also presented.. Unfortunately notallpapers can be published. A completelistis included in the Annual Proceedings of the Fifteenth Conference. INTRODUCHON THE EDUCATION SYSTEM IN. PAPUA NEW GUINEA The 1974 National Conference in Port Moresby caught the Education System in PNG at a point of interisIve self-examination and re-direction a eharacteristic which is reflected in the papers presented. In a way it would be asking the Australian reader too much to outline possible new directions on the assumption that he understands their point of (departure from the pr&mt. The factis, PNG's Education. System today is so radically different from dn Australian system that it must be studied afresh as a' basis for understanding new directions likely to emerge. So often, after we have painstaking), described the current operations, of, for example, our Teachers' Colleges, we find out Austrafian .visitors going on to say "Fine . now, what about the private (chdrch) colleges?" The fact is that, with the exception of one church College which wishes to remain completely free of government involvement, all church Teachers' Colleges arc members of the national education system, sharing with the. government Colleges the same common benefits, national policies and curriculum. appointnlent procedures, ete. 4s with Teachers' C'ollegek. similarly with other educational institutions; the /rat government private cleavage in Australian education, is not knownrm the integrated education system ofPNG. Australn visitors are likewise intrigued by other now-routine' features of the PNG education system developed during the 'period when Dr. K. McKinnon was Director. One of these, necessry to th'e. integvion of a number of private bodies into a national education system, istitre establishment of a governing body for each educational institution, with formal powers under,the Ordin- ance over such matters as planning the development ofthe Institution, managing its budget: collecting fees and appointing staff. Anotfier important featurf of decentralizationistheDistrict Education Board, again with ,forma!'powers under the Ordinance in relation to planning the development of education in its district, opening new schools, 'appointing staff, controlling 0 admission to schools. Other contemporary features of a system whose history totals less than three decades may be traced back to Australia's accelerating post-war determination to. develop PNG rapidly. Some visitors were surprisedat the extent to which English. is used, others at the implications ofreliance on a foreign language for the curriculum generally and inparticular for the respect with which the younger generation will therefore treat theirindigenous language and culture. What the Conference didreveal,inallitsugly dimensions, were the tremendous tensions generated as education, as agent of modernisation and Yiesternisation. has helped to create expectationswhich are far beyond the capacity of the.natipn to satisfy.

  • 13. Applying the Concept of Lifelong Action Learning
    RICHARD TEARE 13. APPLYING THE CONCEPT OF LIFELONG ACTION LEARNING Learning and Development for a Better World INTRODUCTION Ortrun Zuber-Skerritt’s contemporary ideas about Lifelong Action Learning (LAL) are grounded in the work of the Global University for Lifelong Learning (GULL). This chapter profiles Ortrun’s contribution to the LAL concept and to GULL’s work since its launch in 2007. The chapter also outlines how Ortrun’s personal and scholarly insights have helped to shape an inclusive approach to learning and development that encourages and strengthens low income and subsistence communities. As a vehicle for LAL, GULL aims to harness the potential of people to bring about positive change and in particular, greater self-reliance and financial independence. It is a self-directed process of learning and growth that can be shared with others. The importance of LAL is also reflected in sustainable transformation – a form of practical ‘self-help’ that yields on-going personal and community benefits. Ortrun’s substantial contribution to the literature on aspects of Action Learning and Action Research (ALAR) is internationally recognised and widely acknowledged by people all over the world who draw on her work. To shed light on why her contribution is so significant, I aim to highlight some of the ways in which Ortrun’s generosity of spirit, visionary thinking and commitment to action underpin her many books. The chapter opens with a personal tribute to Ortrun (modelling action leadership) and continues by tracing her contribution to GULL’s work with reference to five books she has authored, co-authored and edited since 2009.

As part of this process of preparation, and with unconscious and appropriate irony for a country which is still so heavily upon external economic assistance for its continued development, '-:the :Territory of Paua and New Guinea" was renamed "Papua New Guinea" on the first day of the new financial year. "The Territory of" was deleted from the country's official name to remove one of the outward symbols of dependence, and the "and" was dropped to promote national unity. A new flag and erblem (which are reproduced on page 2 of this "Newsletter") were also brought into official use, and a national day, the second Monday in September, was decle.red. July Ist, 1971, therefore marked, as the Administrator said, II a significant step in the development of a Papua New Guinea nation" and his message was printed in a G.o_wenent Gazette..Et.raordina_ry on that day, with translations into Pidgin and Police Motu replete with paraphrases in each language to explain what "a nation" is.

Pamela Anne Quartermaine 2.S-. b. z_ool ABSTRACT This was a study in Papua New Guinea (PNG) of the planning and implementation of a new three-year teacher education programme, the Diploma in Teaching (Primary). What the indigenous staff in the nine residential colleges did to introduce the programme between 1991 and 1993, was seen at the outset by the writer to be an important culmination of all that preceded the innovation. The context, therefore, is detailed historically for the 50 years from 1946 to 1996, indicating teacher training and teacher education policy development, the process of staff localisation (indigenisation) and college programme evolution. The pioneering work of indigenous PNG school teachers was a significant contribution to the country's development, consequently the way they were prepared for their work and roles was a useful investigation.

  • Front Cover Photograph the Circle of Friendship Many Indigenous
    Front Cover Photograph The circle of friendship Many indigenous cultures maintain a tradition with roots in the idea of ‘the circle of friendship’. In this understanding, by treating our friendship as a gift to people who are special to us, our friendship with them will last forever. Community members therefore meet regularly around an open fire to share ideas and celebrate the peace, friendship and care among them. Lifelong Action Learning (LAL) has its roots in a similar understanding. As this book explains, people learn with and from each other through collaborative first- hand experience and reflecting upon it. They pass on their learning to others to cascade the knowledge they have created and their understanding of how to learn continuously – through LAL. The solidarity, enlightenment and sharing of ideas depicted on the cover of this book are true to the philosophy of LAL for community development and ultimately a better world for all.
