This course is an exploration of the strategies, methodology, philosophy, and classroom organizational structure that have been found to benefit content and literacy outcomes for ELL (English language learner) students. Language experience, cooperative learning, and constructivist strategies are practices that will be examined and modeled during this course.  Students will revisit first and second language acquisition, as well as sheltered instruction models, used to adapt curriculum for ELL students at all grade levels. The practices learned in this course ensure development of language proficiency by accessing content and cognitive language. Participants learn the use of authentic assessments that allow students to demonstrate learning in ways not dependent on high levels of English. Exploration of ELP (English Language Proficiency) standards and strategies will deepen student understanding of the relationship between oral language and content learning. Participants will experience a wide range of methodologies and reflect on how they impact student and teacher learning.

Fall 2021 - Gender Studies
231 Genders and Sexualities in a Global Perspective
Course Description: This is a feminist anthropological approach to the study of gender and sexuality. We will read some text that take a cross-disciplinary approach within the social sciences; however, this is not a general survey course. Our approach to reading emphasizes comprehension, analysis and critique, in that order. The course pace is slow - moderate.
The course has three aims/trajectories. First, it provides a historiography of studying social difference within anthropology. Anthropologists acknowledge the changing nature of culture, society, and nation. Some material will be dated. Some is not. We are looking at how theory, debates and analyses around gender and sexuality have developed/is changing over time in the discipline and within different socio-cultural settings. The second aim picks up from there. In addition to textbooks, we will read ethnographic research article and ethnographic texts that provide historical and contemporaneous descriptions of gender identity and sexual expressions in different socio-cultural settings. Third, material from popular sources will give us respite from the academic voice.

Gender as it has been socially, culturally, and, historically constituted in different times and, places. Theoretical developments in the, anthropology of gender. Cross-cultural exploration, using examples from a wide range of societies,, past and present. The relationship between, cultural definitions of gender and the social, experience of women, men, and alternative gender, roles, such as the Native American two-spirits,, the hijra of India, and global perspectives on, contemporary transgender experiences.

An exploration of ways gender informs the theory,
history, and creation of literature and art. The
role gender norms and constructs play in
establishing, reproducing, or contesting aesthetic
values, traditions, and hierarchies; feminist
perspectives on subjects such as the gaze, the
self-portrait, autobiography, and costume; gender
and its relationship to theories of beauty, taste,
and the body. Materials may be drawn from
literature, art, film, cultural studies, art
history, theatre, dance, and queer studies.
Emphasis on an interdisciplinary topic to be
chosen by the professor. Recent topics have
included 20th-century experimentation in novels,
films, and photography; the Victorian crisis in
gender roles from the sensation heroine and
Pre-Raphaelitism to the dandy; gender and self as
artistic and theoretical constructs from the
Enlightenment to the present.

The history of the U.S. in the 20th century., Central themes are freedom, the state, empire,, social movements, and public memory. Topics may, include the rise of imperialism; the demise of, Reconstruction and the rise of Jim Crow; the, development of industrial capitalism;, Progressivism; the World Wars; consumer culture;, the Great Migration; the Depression and New Deal;, the Cold War; the rights revolutions of the 1950s,, '60s, and '70s; Vietnam; and the rise of the, Right.

In the 21st century, Latin America has seesawed between right-wing and left-wing governments. From Hugo Chávez’s 21st century socialism in Venezuela to Evo Morales' nationalization of oil and gas in Bolivia, from the resurrection of Nicaragua’s Daniel Ortega to Narcos in Mexico, from protests in Cuba to the Oaxaca rebellion in Mexico, from the ouster of leftist President Mario Castillo in Peru to the neo-fascist Bolsonarista attack on Lula’s government in Brazil, the continent appears more on the edge of social crisis than ever before. Recently, the left has been ascendant in Latin America with populists and socialists elected in Chile, Mexico, Honduras, Peru and Brazil. In the twentieth century, development models including populist industrialization, socialist nationalism, and neo-liberal modernization have all failed quite dramatically. In the past three decades, the super-rich have grown richer, while the super-poor have grown poorer and become a bigger percentage of the population. Meanwhile, rich and middle-class women seek plastic surgery and appetite suppressants to become frighteningly thin to conform to first world standards of beauty while their poor counterparts grow fatter on unhealthy food. Millions of Latin Americans have been forced from their homes to cities, to neighboring countries, to Europe and to the US. Throughout the semester we will seek a historical understanding of how Latin America has arrived at the edge of the abyss.
The history of modern Latin America, from independence at the beginning of the nineteenth century until the present, is one that continues to have a profound political, social and economic impact on the United States. This course will provide a context for the dizzying array of episodic news reports about the vast America that lies south of the Rio Grande. It is a survey in that we will focus on broad themes, but we will also be exploring, as much as possible, the particular experiences of individual countries and social classes. Themes that we will be investigating include nation-building, industrialization, modernization, development, indigenous rights, racism, revolution, “neo-colonial” or “dependent” relations with advanced industrialized countries, military rule, social movements and narco-trafficking.
We will begin and end the course with a discussion of more recent trends in Latin America, including the rise of neoliberalism and the concurrent re-emergence of social rebellion and populism from below.

"Asian American" is a catchall term that refers to, a variety of people whose ethnic and cultural, origins span a third of the globe. In this class,, we will examine some of the distinct populations, that make up this group, including those who trace, their origins to China, Japan, Continental India,, Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Hawaii,, and several other Pacific Islands. (Students may, focus their independent research project on, another group of their choice.) We will use, memoirs, literature, government documents,, history, film, and material culture to answer, these questions: Why did they immigrate to the, U.S.? What were their experiences after they, arrived? How were their experiences shaped by, global and internal politics, as well as their, cultural repertoires? What do their experiences, reveal about American history and contemporary, politics and views? Why have such diverse, populations been grouped under one label and, viewed as a single "race"?

The history of women and gender in the United, States from the colonial period to the present,, with a focus on the 19th and 20th centuries as, influenced by class, race, and region. Topics, include the transformation of a household economy, to an industrial economy; the influence of slavery, and emancipation on the experience of women, bound, and free; women's movement into low-paid "women's, work" and their designation as the primary, consumers in a consumer society; women's, involvement in social reform; changing notions of, women's (and men's) sexuality; the conflicted, history of women's suffrage; the relationship, between ideologies of gender and imperialism;, suburbanization and the "feminine mystique"; and, the rights revolutions of the 20th century.

A survey of African American history from, emancipation to the present: the process of, emancipation, Reconstruction, the rise of Jim, Crow, the Harlem Renaissance, the Great Depression, and the transformation of the rural South, the, civil rights movement, Black power and white, backlash, the rise of the prison-industrial, complex, and the development of hip-hop culture., An examination of art, film, and theatre will, supplement written primary and secondary sources.

Introduction to the practice and research methods, of history. Reading and critical analysis of, primary sources and scholarship organized around, themes or problems in history.

Although stereotypes of a xenophobic China persist, in fact, for millennia China has been deeply connected to international networks of culture, economics, and politics. These include the Silk Road that supplied Roman Senators with purple dye for their togas, maritime trade that brought in Jesuits, silver, and British opium, and intellectual exchange that redefined sexuality and inspired experiments in Anarchism, Democracy, and Communism. Today China has re-emerged as a central force in the global economy while its poets, novelists, and artists retake the international stage. In this course we will use documents, diaries, letters, music, film, and images, as well as popular and scholarly books and articles to explore both China’s role in the world and how others’ perceptions of China and China’s perceptions of the world have shaped that role.

The rise of the carceral state in the United, States, including crime in different historical, eras and the ways Americans have sought to deter,, punish, and rehabilitate. Sub-topics include the, changing role of the police; changing definitions, of what constitutes a crime; the evolution of the, prison system; the rise of convict labor; the, political economy of the recent prison boom; the, emergence of the victims' rights and prisoners', rights movements; the privatization of prisons;, differences in treatment based on race, gender,, and age. Course will take place in a nearby, correctional facility.

This course explores the cultural, political, and economic roles food has played in different times and places. Among the issues we will investigate are how political and economic power are expressed through production, availability, and consumption; the expression of religious, ethnic, class, gender, and regional identities through food; nostalgia for the food ways of the past; food science and corporate food production. The main goal of the course is to equip you with the empirical knowledge, research skills, and analytical chops you will need to think and write deeply about food, whatever your interests. To this end, we will examine a handful of issues in different times and places. You will put these skills into practice in a research paper on a topic of your choice. Over the semester, I will expect you to improve your writing and speaking skills.

Reading and critical analysis of major
interpretive works. Organized around themes or
problems; comparative study of historical works
exemplifying different points of view,
methodologies, subject matter. Focus varies
