This course is designed for students of Hispanic heritage who speak Spanish but who have not studied it formally. Students will formalize their Spanish language skills in a collaborative, project-driven, community-based learning environment that fosters local partnerships. Projects may include researching resource needs access in local Latino communities, documenting ethnographies of cultural and ethnic citizenship in new immigrant communities; developing materials for intercultural education at local schools and libraries and collaborating with local youth and family organizations to produce intercultural community events.
