This book was released on 2021-08-31 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores questions around the meaning and significance of international student migration. Framed in relation to the mobilities – and immobilities – of international students, the book highlights various key themes emerging from the rich interdisciplinary scholarship in this area, including socio-economic diversification in mobile students, the differential value of international higher education, and citizenship and state-building projects. It also discusses the importance of considering ethics in relation to student migrants. This pioneering book will be of interest and value to scholars of student mobilities and the international student experience more widely, as well as practitioners and policy makers.
Book Synopsis Teaching and Supporting Migrant Children in Our Schools by : Reyes L. Quezada
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.
Book Synopsis Immigration, Diversity, and Student Journeys to Higher Education by : Peter Joseph Guarnaccia
Download or read book Immigration, Diversity, and Student Journeys to Higher Education written by Peter Joseph Guarnaccia and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Immigration, Diversity and Student Journeys to Higher Education presents an in-depth understanding of how immigrant students at a major public research university balanced keeping their family cultures alive and learning U.S. culture to get to college. A revitalized anthropological understanding of acculturation provides the theoretical framework for the book. The text builds its analysis using extensive quotes from the 160 immigrant students who participated in the 21 focus groups that form the core of this study. The students' families come from Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Europe and Latin America, and reflect a wide diversity of experiences and insights into how these students successfully pursued higher education. A key theme of the book is the "immigrant bargain," where students repay their parents' hard work and migration sacrifices by excelling in school. A large majority of the parents made clear that a major motivation for immigrating was so their children could have better educational opportunities; these parents had the original dreams for their children. Immigration, Diversity and Student Journeys to Higher Education examines the similarities and differences across this diverse group of students, ending with a series of recommendations about how to improve acculturation research and how to facilitate immigrant students' journeys to educational success"--

Book Synopsis Success Factors Contributing to College Enrollment Among Latino Migrant Students by : Araceli Leon
Download or read book Success Factors Contributing to College Enrollment Among Latino Migrant Students written by Araceli Leon and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aims to identify the factors that assisted migrant Latino college students in pursuing higher education when they were in high school. Researchers hypothesized that the study findings on challenges and protective factors for the students would be consistent with those in the literature. Study findings failed to give evidence to support those challenging factors identified in the literature review. They, however, confirmed and showed consistency with the protective factors identified. The study employed of a self-administered survey completed by 42 students enrolled in the College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) at the California State University, Sacramento. The survey contains 50 items, encompassing both quantitative and qualitative data. All study participants are first-generation college students. A significant amount of students reported their parents had less than a high school education. Scholarships and grants are students' major source of funding for college. Mobility, language, financial instability, and the need of having a job were not perceived by them as challenges throughout high school. Important protective factors in high school included family, peers, and mentors. Qualitative findings show that having a mentor or a significant person who are caring and reassuring often inspired students to get a college degree. This connection is their top motivating factor in moving towards their academic goals. Supportive services in high school for migrant students and services such as CAMP have found to be extremely helpful in facilitating students to pursue and to remain in their college education. It is crucial for social workers to work closely with the Latino community, parents, and students through effective education, counseling, and other supportive programs to promote students' academic and personal successes in high school and in college.
Book Synopsis CAMP as a Broker of Persistence by : Melissa Landrau Vega
Download or read book CAMP as a Broker of Persistence written by Melissa Landrau Vega and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The migrant student population in the United States has significantly increased in the last few decades. While these students are enrolled in K-12 institutions, the challenges they face as migrant children and the educational systemic barriers they encounter continue to present obstacles for their college completion. Educational agencies must seek to understand the resources that assist these students in attending and graduating from college. This narrative qualitative study explored the capital that students cultivate at home and in college to aid their college persistence. Using Community Cultural Wealth as the theoretical framework, the researcher explored the educational experiences of eight college graduates who participated in the College Assistance Migrant Program during college. Three major themes surfaced after a focus group interview and five individual episodic narrative interviews were conducted: experiencing life through a Brown Bubble; CAMP as a tool for leveraging homegrown and cultivating college-grown community cultural wealth; and leveraging cultural wealth to cultivate educational persistence after college. Implications of these findings for practice are discussed.

Book Synopsis The Education of Migrant Children and China's Future by : Holly H. Ming
Download or read book The Education of Migrant Children and China's Future written by Holly H. Ming and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are more than 225 million rural-to-urban migrant workers, and some 20 million migrant children in Chinese cities. Because of policies related to the household registration (hukou) system, migrant students are not allowed a public high school education in the cities, so their urban education stops abruptly at the end of middle school. This book investigates the post-middle school education and labor market decisions of migrant students in Beijing and Shanghai, and provides a glimpse into the future of a crucial link in China’s development. The stories of how these migrant students seek upward mobility and urban citizenship also reveal one of the most intricate structural inequalities in China today. Based on quantitative data collected from middle schools in Beijing and Shanghai, and ethnographic data drawing on in-depth interviews with migrant children, their parents, and teachers, this book offers a portrait of the migration and educational experiences and prospects of second generation migrant youth in China today. It explores the urban experience of migrant students, contrasting it with that of local city youngsters, examining the migrant students’ family backgrounds, family dynamics, neighborhood and school experience, and interaction with locals. It goes on to look at the migrant students’ education and career aspirations, the structural obstacles preventing their fulfilment, and how migrant families respond to institutional constraints on educational opportunity. Finally, the book concludes with a discussion of policy implications and offers proposals for resolving the dilemmas of migrant youth. This book will of great interest to students and scholars of Chinese studies, Asian education, migration and social development.
Book Synopsis Undocumented and Unwanted by : Lisa DeAnn Garcia
Download or read book Undocumented and Unwanted written by Lisa DeAnn Garcia and published by New Americans: Recent Immigrat. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Undocumented immigrant postsecondary students face myriad challenges while pursuing a college education. Garcia focuses on the experiences of nine students attending a public comprehensive postsecondary institution in California to assess how different types of social capital help students pursue a college education. She demonstrates how students were wholly or partly reliant on various types of social capital accessed before and during matriculation. Three of the major findings are: institutional agents were instrumental in developing students' social capital, family- and peer-based social capital was important to students' matriculation, and perceptions about immigration status affected students' matriculation and social capital development.
Book Synopsis Fracturing Opportunity by : R. Evely Gildersleeve
Download or read book Fracturing Opportunity written by R. Evely Gildersleeve and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fracturing Opportunity demonstrates a simple yet profound idea - that educational opportunity is learned. And if it is learned, then it can be taught and taught more equitably. This book brings sociocultural theories of learning and development to bear on the persistent problems of inequality in college access, and presents an innovative framework for understanding and addressing the historic inequities that plague educational opportunity. Through ethnographic documentation of Mexican migrants' educational experiences, the book moves beyond traditional inquiry on aspiration, academic preparation, and college matriculation to explore the deeper, more fundamental sense-making processes that mediate how students among the most vulnerable cultural communities in the United States engage in college-going. This is an excellent text for educators and researchers interested in equal educational opportunity generally, Mexican migrant and Chicano education in particular, and scholars interested in applied critical sociocultural theory and critical ethnographic methods.
