Teacher training material for the Papua New Guinea 'E' Course

  • AU ANUA 461
  • Series
  • 1960 - 1972

Post World War II the need for education in Papua New Guinea was listed as essential in the Provisional Administration Bill of 1945. In the late 1950s, W C Grove, as Director of Papua New Guinea Education, saw that education for local students was hampered in that the Territory did not have staff to run schools while indigenous teachers were being trained. The 'E' or Emergency Crash Teacher Training Course was implemented. The aim was to recruit Australians, quickly train them and post them to primary schools. The first "E" course began at Malaguna Technical Centre in 1960. On 1 April 1961 the first E course graduates were posted to districts throughout PNG. The courses ended in December 1971. This compilation is in two parts. The first describes the courses, the second is a list of lecturers, trainees who graduated from the three training colleges at Malaguna, Madang and Port Moresby, and selected events.

Index cards relating to immigrants

  • AU ANUA 475
  • Series
  • 1963 - 1970

The index cards were used by Price and others in the Department of Demography in their research on immigrants: their origins and their place of settlement. They summarise information about immigrants sourced from the Department of Immigration including naturalisation files 1903-1970. There are two main groups of cards: non-Europeans (Chinese, Japanese and other Asian) in New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland sorted by province and district in their home countries, and European migrants by country of origin. Cards for Jewish people, Greeks, Italians and East Europeans are sorted by Australian place of residence at the time of naturalisation (state, then city or country); there are separate runs for Germans in South Australia and Italians in Griffith, New South Wales. Cards for other Europeans are sorted by country, then district or village of origin (including Germans, Austrians, Russians, Ukrainians, Czechs, Slovaks, Turks, Cypriots, Hungarians, Rumanians, Balts, Poles and immigrants from Denmark, Sweden, Finland, France, Holland, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Norway, United States, South America, Syria and Lebanon). Sampling was 1:1 for small groups and earlier years, reaching 1:4 when Germans and Greeks were numerous and 1:5 when Italians were numerous.

Record of former members of the Australian National University

  • AU ANUA 145
  • Series
  • 1948 - 1967

The forms headed ‘Record of former member of University’ record name, department, file number, ‘if married to another member of ANU, husband’s/wife’s name’, degree conferred, country of birth, country from which recruited, scholarships and posts at ANU, date left ANU and posts held subsequently. Most relate to students but also to students who became staff members. It appears that the forms were to be the basis of a research project using punch cards to analyse where students were recruited from, when they left (either 1948-57 or 1958-67) and their subsequent career. This appears to be an attempt to evaluate the success of recruitment and scholarship programs for ‘early scholars’. The data seems to go to 1960 when the ANU and Canberra University College amalgamated. There are three separate runs of forms with no apparent reason for this.
