Description

A course open to majors and non-majors and designed to help prepare parents and teachers for the immense challenges that arise in honoring children from diverse or underrepresented cultures. Each participant will be encouraged to first focus upon his/her own cultural heritage and then focus on significant aspects of other heritages. Activities involve community interviews, guest speakers, field trips, electronic journaling and research, role playing, extensive readings, and observations in public school classrooms. Emphasis is placed on understanding the needs of second language learners and bilingual students as well as the ethics and execution of state and national laws.
