Immigrants: Who They Are and What They Contribute

jeudi 1 juin 2017 à 14:30–15:15 EDT

Abstract

Is "immigrant" a bad word? Rhetoric says yes, data says no. Teachers can better serve immigrant students when they know them and when they work with an asset-based perspective of what immigrants can accomplish. The latest research will introduce the many contributions immigrants make through data, stories and reflection.
