This study is a review of the researcher's deliberate strategies for
incorporating Latino culture into the teaching of a Spanish language course.
The researcher developed, presented and assessed a curriculum unit
designed to examine the social and educational problems of Latinos, the history
of Latin America, the effects of discrimination and inequality in society, and the
struggle by Latinos to succeed and gain respect in mainstream America.
While the results from this initial study were mixed, the qualitative data
collected indicated that an integration of language and social studies curricula
provides students with a more comprehensive perspective on the meaning of
culture. / Graduation date: 1997
