Micronesia

This lecture, held in 1999 by Elizabeth D. Rechebi from Micronesia, reflects personal and social experiences about the history of education in this region. It becomes obvious that education has been dominated by foreign influence until now. In particular curricula and textbooks give evidence of this. The author refers to deficits in the education system and appeals to foreign donors to undertake a critical analysis of the work done so far by their institutions and to make efforts to reach more efficiency in education and training.
