The Education of Immigrants' Children in the United States.

This course will deal with international migration to the United States from a historical perspective, including the development of United States immigration policies and their impact on the sociocultural adaptation of immigrants to the host society, especially in relation to the education of young people. The course will address issues of discrimination, differential socialization, and multicultural problems. Students are expected to acquire first-hand experience by interacting with a recent immigrant family and following the educational experience of recent immigrant students presently attending a school in the United States.
