Executive Summary This study presents evidence on time discount rate of forest-dependent communities (FDCs) in the backdrop of the joint forest management program launched by the Government of India in 1990. The study uses data from two regions of the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh—Rayalaseema (a relatively dry forest region with low income) and the coastal region (relatively fertile forest and with higher income). We also identify socio-economic determinants of their patience levels and factors which distinguish the two regions. To elicit individual discount rates of FDCs members and their determinants, we use the choice task design methodology. Members from both regions were found to be highly impatient using the standard choice task design with the revealed time discount rate averaging 800% per annum. Members of FDCs from Rayalaseema were more impatient than their counterparts from the coastal region, although the statistical evidence is weak. We find no association between the income of members of FDCs and their time discount rate for both regions. Membership to caste categories showed a different response in both the regions, with members from the Scheduled Caste category and Other Backward Classes found to have a lower discount rate than those from the Scheduled Tribes category of Rayalaseema region and vice versa for the coastal region. For the coastal region, those with larger family size and heads of households were found to have a lower discount rate.

Despite almost half a century of research into students’ difficulties with solving linear equations, these difficulties persist in everyday mathematics classes around the world. Furthermore, the difficulties reported decades ago are the same ones that persist today. With the immense number of dynamic online environments for mathematics teaching and learning that are emerging today, we are presented with a perhaps unique opportunity to do something about this. This study sets out to apply the research on lower secondary school students’ difficulties with equation solving, in order to eventually inform students’ personalised learning through a specific task design in a particular dynamic online environment (matematikfessor.dk). In doing so, task design theory is applied, particularly variation theory. The final design we present consists of eleven general equation types—ten types of arithmetical equations and one type of algebraic equation—and a broad range of variations of these, embedded in a potential learning-trajectory-tree structure. Besides establishing this tree structure, the main theoretical contribution of the study and the task design we present is the detailed treatment of the category of arithmetical equations, which also involves a new distinction between simplified and non-simplified arithmetical equations.
