The interventions explored here?in Solomon Islands and Tonga?were implemented via a four-year collaboration which adopted a design-based research approach to bringing about sustainable improvements in teacher and student learning, and in the delivery and evaluation of educational aid. This approach demanded that learning from the context of practice should be determining of both content and process; that all involved in the interventions should see themselves as learners. Essential to the trusting and respectful relationships required for this approach was the program?s acknowledgement of relationality as central to indigenous Oceanic societies, and of education as a relational activity. Relationality and Learning in Oceania: Contextualizing Education for Development addresses debates current in both comparative education and international aid. Argued strongly is that relational research-practice approaches (south-south, south-north) which center the importance of context and culture, and the significance of indigenous epistemologies, are required to strengthen education within the post-colonial relational space of Oceania, and to inform the various agencies and actors involved in ?education for development? in Oceania and globally. Maintained is that the development of education structures and processes within the contexts explored through the chapters comprising this volume, continues to be a negotiation between the complexity of historically developed local 'traditions' and understandings and the ?global? imperatives shaped by dominant development discourses. 410 0$aComparative and International Education: Diversity of Voices;$v18. 606 $aEducation, Primary$zSolomon Islands 606 $aEducation, Primary$zTonga 606 $aEducation$xAims and objectives$zSolomon Islands 610 $aSociety & social sciences 610 $aHigher & further education, tertiary education 615 0$aEducation, Primary 615 0$aEducation, Primary 615 0$aEducation$xAims and objectives 676 $a372.95 700 $aJohansson-Fua$b Seu?ula$4edt$01370012 702 $aJohansson-Fua$b Seu?ula Falelalava$f1974- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910520107103321 996 $aRelationality and Learning in Oceania$93397275 997 $aUNINA
