This course is designed to familiarize educators and others with historical, cultural and educational issues relevant to Latinos(as) in Wisconsin and the United States.  Areas of exploration will include elements of surface and deep level culture, as well as historical perspectives on Pre-Columbian Latin America, the European conquest, and contemporary Latino(a) experience.  The role of ethnic pride as a factor in high-level student achievement will also be explored.  Each of these areas will be explored in relation to the development of biculturalism/multiculturalism within the English-Spanish bilingual classroom.  The class will be conducted in Spanish and all assignments will be completed in Spanish.
