| Description: | Includes descriptive metadata provided by producer in M4A file: "The IRIS Center - The IRIS Center - Podcasts - Episode 4: Leonard Baca on the use of native languages in the classroom. - Leonard Baca describes how he became involved in bilingual special education, the importance of teachers making connections between the curriculum and the language and culture of their students, and the dynamics of family involvement for English learners. Questions asked Leonard Baca in this audio: Professor Baca, can you tell us how you became involved in studying culturally and linguistically diverse exceptional learners? Will you talk a bit about the reason behind classroom teachers' using their students' native languages and connecting those students' culture to the curriculum? It seems that many of the reading materials we have in use today are more reflective of cultural diversity than in the past. And what about family involvement?" Baca is a professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder, and Executive Director of the Bueno Center for Multicultural Education. |
