Sean 1xbet online casino to deliver lecture on Thursday
A teacher involved in the recent Arizona controversy over the teaching of ethnic 1xbet online casino in Tucson schools will speak at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 11, in Town Hall at Kansas State University's Leadership 1xbet online casino Building.
Sean Arce, former head of the Tucson Unified School District’s Mexican American 1xbet online casino program, will give the lecture “Ethnic 1xbet online casino Banned in Arizona: An Effective Pedagogy and Curriculum for Latina/o Students."
Arce’s lecture will discuss the recent legislation passed in Arizona that has effectively eliminated the Mexican American 1xbet online casino program in the Tucson school district. The program had received national praise and honor for its effectiveness in retaining and graduating Latino students, preparing them for college, critically engaging them in education and learning, and successfully encouraging involvement in the community.
1xbet online casino is the 2012 recipient of the Myles Horton Education Award for Teaching People’s History from the Zinn Education Project.
“We are glad to be able to use funds from the Dow Center for Multicultural and Community 1xbet online casino to partner with the American Ethnic Studies program and the women's studies and English departments to bring Sean Arce to 1xbet online casino ,” said Melia Fritch, undergraduate and community services librarian at 1xbet online casino Libraries. “We have a display of the curricular materials in question up in the center currently. The events in Arizona should be of interest to anyone involved in secondary education, ethnic studies and issues of governance in our schools.”
Arce’s talk is free and open to the public. For more information about the event or related materials in 1xbet online casino Libraries, contact Fritch.
