Book Synopsis Revisiting Education in the New Latino Diaspora by : Edmund Hamann
Download or read book Revisiting Education in the New Latino Diaspora written by Edmund Hamann and published by IAP. This book was released on 2015-04-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most of US history, most of America’s Latino population has lived in nine states—California, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Texas, Illinois, Florida, New Jersey, and New York. It follows that most education research that considered the experiences of Latino families with US schools came from these same states. But in the last 30 years Latinos have been resettling across the US, attending schools, and creating new patterns of inter-ethnic interaction in educational settings. Much of this interaction with this New Latino Diaspora has been initially tentative and improvisational, but too often it has left intact the patterns of lower educational success that have prevailed in the traditional Latino diaspora. Revisiting Education in the New Latino Diaspora is an extensive update, with all new material, of the groundbreaking volume Education in the New Latino Diaspora (Ablex Publishing) that these same editors produced in 2002. This volume consciously includes a number of junior scholars (e.g., C. Allen Lynn, Soria Colomer, Amanda Morales, Rebecca Lowenhaupt, Adam Sawyer) and more established ones (Frances Contreras, Jason Irizarry, Socorro Herrera, Linda Harklau) as it considers empirical cases from Washington State to Georgia, from the Mid-Atlantic to the Great Plains, where rural, suburban, and urban communities start their second or third decades of responding to a previously unprecedented growth in newcomer Latino populations. With excuses of surprise and improvisational strategies less persuasive as Latino newcomer populations become less new, this volume considers the persistence, the anomie, and pragmatism of Latino newcomers on the one hand, with the variously enlightened, paternalistic, dismissive, and xenophobic responses of educators and education systems on the other. With foci as personal as accounts of growing up as an adoptee in a mixed race family and the testimonio of a ‘successful’ undocumented college graduate to the macro scale of examining state-level education policies and with an age range from early childhood education to the university level, this volume insists that the worlds of education research and migration studies can both gain from considering the educational responses in the last two decades to the ‘newish’ Latino presence in the 41 U.S. states that have not long been the home to large, wellestablished Latino populations, but that now enroll 2.5 million Latino students in K-12 alone. "Timely and compelling, Revisiting Education in the NLD offers new insight into the Latino Diaspora in the US just as the discussions regarding immigration policy, bilingual education, and immigrant rights are gaining steam. Drawing from a variety of perspectives, contributing authors interrogate the very concept of the diaspora. The wide range of research in this volume thoughtfully illustrates the nuanced phenomena and provides rich descriptions of complex situations. No longer a simple question of immigration, the book considers language and legal status in schools, international adoption, teacher preparation, and the relationships between established and relatively new Latino communities in a variety of contexts. Comprised of rich, thoughtful research Revisiting Education provides a fascinating window into the context of Latino reception nationwide. ~ Rebecca M. Callahan, Associate Professor - University of Texas-Austin As the leader of a 10-years-and-counting research study in Mexico that has identified and interviewed transnationally mobile students with prior experience in U.S. schools, I can affirm that in addition to students with backgrounds in California, Arizona, Texas, and Colorado, migration links now join schools in Georgia, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Alabama, etc. to schools in Mexico. For that reason and many others I am excited to see this far-ranging, interdisciplinary, new text that considers policy implementation through lenses as different as teacher preparation, Latino adoption into culturally mixed families, the fate of Latino newcomers in 'low density' districts where there are few like them, and the misuse of Spanish teachers as interpreters. This is an relevant book for American educators and scholars, but also for readers beyond U.S. borders. Hamann, Wortham, Murillo, and their contributors should be celebrated for this fine new collection. ~ Dr. Víctor Zúñiga, Dean of Research and Extension, Universidad de Monterrey

Book Synopsis Workforce Education for Latinos by : Ana G. Huerta-Macías
Download or read book Workforce Education for Latinos written by Ana G. Huerta-Macías and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-04-30 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author provides a comprehensive discussion of the political, economic, curricular, and instructional issues relevant to workforce education for Latinos with low levels of literacy and formal education. Of particular significance is an examination of recent federal legislation that has impacted Latino adults who are unemployed, displaced, and/or seeking to advance personally and economically. Instructors, as well as administrators and policymakers, will benefit from the succinct yet comprehensive discussion of federal policies, best practices in classroom instruction for bilingual adults, and program assessment and accountability. This study is most timely given the current social and demographic realities of this country as well as the changing economy of the 21st century, and is a powerful voice for Latino adults seeking to better their lives through education.

Book Synopsis Understanding the Language Development and Early Education of Hispanic Children by : Eugene E. Garcia
Download or read book Understanding the Language Development and Early Education of Hispanic Children written by Eugene E. Garcia and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young Hispanic children are the largest and fastest growing ethnic minority population in the United States, representing diverse racial, linguistic, and cultural backgrounds. Educational skills and achievement lag significantly for this population, creating an unacceptable achievement gap at the beginning of Kindergarten that grows even further by the end of 3rd grade. What can we learn from the empirical literature, theory, programs, and policies associated with language and early learning for young Hispanics? What are the home and school factors important to differences in early cognitive development and educational well-being? In this timely collaboration, a renowned researcher and a seasoned practitioner explore these questions with a focus on specific instructional interventions that are associated with reducing the achievement gap for young Hispanic children. Chapters emphasize educational practices, including teacher competencies, instructional strategies, curricular content, parent involvement, and related policy. The text includes teacher-friendly artifacts, instructional organizers, and lesson descriptions. “The authors provide the combination of theoretical orientation, background knowledge, and practical experience that is needed to do justice to this topic.” —Nancy Commins, University of Colorado Denver “Fills a void in current research and will spark vital policy discussions.” —Patricia Gándara, Co-Director of The Civil Rights Project, UCLA

This book was released on 2007 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study examined factors related to the entry of Hispanics into Texas Higher Education institutions for the Deep East Texas Council of Government (DETCOG) region. The study findings were derived from three analyses exploring Hispanics not enrolling into Higher Education programs. One analysis focused on Hispanic population dynamics in the DETCOG region. Texas State Data Center data showed that the Hispanic population is increasing at a significant rate. However, statistics indicate Hispanics that graduate from high school do not attend Higher Education institutions at rates similar to other minority groups because of rural factors. The second analysis determined that Hispanics are graduating from high school at lower rates in the DETCOG region than other minority groups. The National Education Center for Dropouts showed that Hispanic male students are dropping out of high school more than Hispanic female students. Among high school graduates, many used traditional, cultural, and social issues as a reason for not attending Higher Education institutions. The third analysis reviewed Hispanics enrolling in Higher Education institutions. In keeping with the national initiative of the 'No Child Left Behind' Act, some colleges have seen a growth in the number of Hispanic students enrolling into college. Bilingual teachers are in high demand because of the diverse languages being spoken in schools. The Texas Education Agency showed that more Hispanics are being employed to teach because of an increased diverse student population. Once in college, most Hispanics graduated with a bachelor's degree within four to five years. Based on data and social patterns collected the DETCOG region is concerned with Higher Education enrollment rates for the Hispanic population. This study includes twelve counties in the DETCOG region: Angelina, Houston, Jasper, Nacogdoches, Newton, Polk, Sabine, San Augustine, San Jacinto, Shelby, Trinity, and Tyler.
