Download or read book Teaching and Supporting Migrant Children in Our Schools written by Reyes L. Quezada and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General approaches to multiculturalism run the risk of overlooking an increasingly diverse student population that deserves special consideration and attention: students from immigrant backgrounds whose families toil the fields in order to provide better educational opportunities for their children. This book’s purpose is to guide educators to think deeply about their roles and responsibilities in the education of children of farmworker families in our nation’s schools. Readers will view their classrooms, schools, districts, and the migrant programs they lead in a broad and inclusive manner through the lens of cultural proficiency. The initial steps when embracing cultural proficiency entails thinking reflectively about one’s own values and behaviors and the school’s policies and practices toward children of farmworker families. Cultivating a willingness, openness and commitment to meeting the challenges and opportunities of this often-invisible aspect of diversity is an important first step for the development of effective educational practices for migrant students and their families. The cultural proficiency framework can inform staff development models for working effectively with migrant students and their families.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is concerned with the ways in which a dozen " knowledge-based societies" of Western Europe and the English-speaking world respond to unprecedented cultural and linguistic diversity resulting from the flow of immigrants and refugees since World War II. It asks how public policy has sought to use schooling to minimize the potentially divisive and inequitable effects of this diversity and to provide opportunities to the children of immigrants. It asks also how the nature of each of these societies affects the meaning of integration into each of them.

Book Synopsis Immigrant Stories by : Cynthia Garcia Coll
Download or read book Immigrant Stories written by Cynthia Garcia Coll and published by OUP USA. This book was released on 2009-04-03 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immigrant Stories portrays the contexts and academic trajectories of development of three unique immigrant groups: Cambodian, Dominican and Portuguese. The children of immigrant families - or second generation youth - are the fastest growing population of school children in the US. However, very little is known about these children's academic and psychological development during middle childhood. We examine the previously under-explored intricacies of children's emerging cultural attitudes and identities, academic engagement, and academic achievement. These processes are studied alongside a myriad of factors in the family and school environment that combine to shape children's academic psychological functioning during this important period. Through a three-year longitudinal study, including interviews with teachers, parents and children, this book presents a fascinating look at the community, school, and family contexts of child development among second-generation children. Both pre-immigration and post-immigration characteristics are explored as critical factors for understanding children of immigrants' development. In the current climate of US immigration policy debate, we offer research findings that may inform educators and administrators about the sources of community strengths and challenges facing our newest immigrant generations.

Book Synopsis Hyphenated Selves by : Saloshna Vandeyar
Download or read book Hyphenated Selves written by Saloshna Vandeyar and published by Unisa Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book speaks to one of the most challenging policy issues in public education - on how to come to terms with ethnic, religious, and cultural differences without authoritarian demands for conformity and cohesion. *** "Professor Saloshna Vandeyar brought together thirteen co-authors to present us with the most stimulating and original case studies of identity formation and negotiation in the contexts of migration and education. Processes in South African, Dutch, American Mexican, Swedish, Brazilian and German schools are scrutinized while immigrant students from very diverse origins such as the Philippines, Turkey, Central and East Africa and Singapore are studied in the way they perceive themselves in the schools and countries they now find themselves in. This excellent compilation will appeal to researchers in the fields of education, anthropology, sociology as well as ethnic and cultural studies." - Philip Hermans, Professor of Anthropology, Catholic U. of Leuven *** "This book extends discussions from anthropology, hermeneutics and philosophy into the very real and immediate world of public education. More than that, it speaks to one of the most challenging public policy issues of our times: how to come to terms with ethnic, religious and cultural differences without authoritarian demands for conformity and cohesion. For South Africa the book offers many lessons and points of debates. If nothing else, it insists that we confront the challenges of difference: these are not merely reverberations of apartheid - although they are coloured by it - that can be ignored. They are instead unavoidable by-products of global processes of human movement and cultural transformation. As we recognise these, the authors ask us to think carefully, not only about the institutional and pedagogical tools we employ, but about the fundamental objectives that inform our efforts." - Professor Loren B. Landau, Director, Center for Refugee and Immigrant Studies, U. of the Witwatersrand, South Africa (Series: SAVUSA)

Book Synopsis Giving Voices to Mexican Immigrant Parents by : Jennifer M. Beasley
Download or read book Giving Voices to Mexican Immigrant Parents written by Jennifer M. Beasley and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The transition to formal schooling is thought of as a critical educational experience for all children and their families. This transition may be especially critical for those in the largest immigrant group in the United States, Mexican families and their children. Using Critical Race Theory, the aim of the current study was to give Mexican immigrant parents a voice in their experiences and perspectives regarding their children's transition to school. Using two distinct phases, the current study examined Mexican immigrant parents' perspectives on and experiences with their children's transition to kindergarten. In the first phase, information from interviews with 7 Mexican immigrant parents and feedback from an expert panel were used to revise the Family Experiences and Involvement in Transition (FEIT) survey (McIntyre et al, 2007), with the intent of making it more culturally sensitive and relevant, and a better reflection of Mexican families' perspectives and experiences. In the second phase of the study, 44 Mexican immigrant parents completed the newly adapted FEIT (FEIT-A) measure, providing some initial data about its utility, relevance, and psychometric properties. Implications of use of the FEIT-A for schools, communities, and practitioners are discussed."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.
Book Synopsis Children in Immigrant Families Becoming Literate by : Yao-Kai Chi
Download or read book Children in Immigrant Families Becoming Literate written by Yao-Kai Chi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-04 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This original book offers a meaningful window into the lived experiences of children from immigrant families, providing a holistic, profound portrait of their literacy practices as situated within social, cultural, and political frames. Drawing on reports from five years of an ongoing longitudinal research project involving students from immigrant families across their elementary school years, each chapter explores a unique set of questions about the students' experiences, and offers rich data set of observations, interviews, student-created artifacts. Authors apply different sociocultural, sociomaterial, and sociopolitical frameworks to better understand the dimensions of the children's experiences. The multitude of approaches applied demonstrates how viewing the same data through distinct lenses is a powerful way to uncover the differences and comparative uses of these theories. Through such varied lenses, it becomes apparent how the complexities of lived experiences inform and improve our understanding of teaching and learning, and how our understanding of multifaceted literacy practices affects students' social worlds and identities. Children in Immigrant Families Becoming Literate is a much-needed resource for scholars, professors, researchers, and graduate students in language and literacy education, English education, and teacher education.
