Visualizing Cultures

0.0 stars

Visualizing Cultures was launched at MIT in 2002 to explore the potential of the Web for developing innovative image-driven scholarship and learning. The VC mission is to use new technology and hitherto inaccessible visual materials to reconstruct the past as people of the time visualized the world (or imagined it to be).

Topical units to date focus on Japan in the modern world and early-modern China. The thrust of these explorations extends beyond Asia per se, however, to address "culture" in much broader ways—cultures of modernization, war and peace, consumerism, images of "Self" and "Others," and so on.

Voice of the Valley: Immigrant Stories from Students of Chippewa Valley Technical College Vol. 1 - Brochure version

Rating
0.0 stars

Adult English language learner classrooms are uniquely diverse, in that a single class can have young adults, grandparents, academics, factory workers, entrepreneurs, and new parents all learning together in one room or on one Zoom call. Cultures blend, clash, and work around each other as students learn grammar, spelling, and pronunciation. Those of us who are instructors in these programs are blessed to be able to experience firsthand the diversity and complexity that is America. Through this book, we hope to offer a glimpse of who we get to work with every day – immigrants telling their own stories in their own words. -- from Introduction.Original Verso information:Hedenstrom, A., Himanga, L, Sorenson, L., Housworth, J., & Bryan, S.

Rating
0.0 stars

Most students recognize the name Christopher Columbus. They may be aware that his voyages ushered in the first period of sustained contact between Europeans and the Americas and its people. They may not know, however, why Columbus traveled to the New World or what happened to the native people he encountered.

In this lesson, students read excerpts from Columbus's letters and journals, as well as recent considerations of his achievements. Students reflect on the motivations behind Columbus's explorations, his reactions to what he found and the consequences, intended and unintended, of his endeavor.
