Use code VEGAPTRY10 to take $10 off! This course explores what it means to be Chicano, Mexican American, Hispanic, and Latino/a/x in the United States. Each week we will consider the relationship between how these communities have been defined and named in the United States within the context of historical events—war, mass deportations, US foreign interventions, and how they live amid these institutional forces. Throughout the course we will also examine how these communities self-identify, mobilize, and engage U.S. sociocultural arrangements. This exploration will occur via a formal presentation of material using a combination of expert lectures and multimedia illustrations that foster student application and extension. In each class we will also hold active class discussions where students can ask questions, respectfully express thoughts, and remain curious. To demonstrate developing competency, students will be assigned weekly homework assignments that ask student to compose thoughtful well composed reflections weekly topics. Finally, to help facilitate a student’s academic development, I will provide constructive feedback on assignments and provide optional opportunities for students to dive deeper. As a result, students in this course will have the opportunity to build the essential skills to grapple with class material at levels similar or exceeding high school honors or advance placement (AP) courses. Based on research concerning student readiness in college and my experience as a college professor, I believe these skills key to a student’s future academic success. Over the past 20 years of teaching college classes (undergraduate BA, BS, graduate MA, MS, EdD, PhD) I have seen a shift in the level of preparedness among incoming 1st-year students. Specifically, promising students are too often adversely challenged by the underdevelopment of foundational skills including active listening, note-taking, critical reflection, and analytical composition. As an educator, I am committed to addressing these achievement issues through meeting students where they are at, providing positive spaces where we can connect their voice to knowledge formation and intellectual growth.
