A Historical Study of the Education of Japanese-American in Hawaii

日裔美国人管理夏威夷的能力来自于他们在教育孩子方面的巨大努力，他们在这方面已经尽了最大努力。今年的研究主要集中在收集夏威夷和日裔美国人的教育史数据。在平田博士的主动推动下，研究成员收集了100多本夏威夷教育史书籍和1万多页的原件复印件。研究成员分工负责，每个成员都从事各自主题的研究。目前他们的研究如下：(1)平田博士以《司各特与日裔美国人的教育》为题进行研究。他以《教育体制改革120周年，斯科特与日美奖学金协会》为题发表演讲。他在去年的书中发表了他的演示文稿。(2)吉田教授一直致力于《第一代日裔美国人的英语学习》。尽管他努力了，但由于他们中的大多数人已经去世，他无法获得足够的数据，这是为了澄清日裔美国人教育的真实情况。(3)Iida副教授收集了大量关于“第二代和第三代日裔美国人的日语教学”的资料。他正在分析每一份数据，并将其用于他的研究。(4)平田敏子教授对“日裔美国女性教育”进行了研究。她获得了很多数据，并在她的演讲中使用了这些数据。(5)Adachi博士收集了关于“夏威夷公共教育史和日裔美国人--各种族的出勤率和更高年级学校入学率的变化”的资料。他仍在研究这一主题，通过夏威夷教育系统的报告分析数据。由于这只是这项研究的第一年，除平田博士外，所有成员仍在努力收集数据或信息。
