Title | Call for Participants: Research on Spanish for Native Speakers |
Body | My name is Sergio A. Guzmán and I teach Spanish at the Community College of Southern Nevada in Las Vegas. I am getting ready to go on sabbatical during spring 2007 to conduct research for my dissertation. I will be looking at student expectations, motivations, and attitudes in Spanish for Heritage Speakers programs. I am hoping to get some volunteers that would allow me to look at their programs. I am looking for one community college and one university in both California and Arizona; as well as another school, preferably a community college, in Houston, TX. The volunteering professors would administer two student surveys (10-15 min. each); one during the first week of classes, the other one during the last week of classes. Second, they would also agree to let me observe their classes twice (each section) during the semester. Finally, I would interview each professor (30-45 min.), and ask for a couple of student volunteers from each section to be interviewed (30 min.). If the schools have several SHS/SNS sections, I would prefer to get data from as many sections as possible. If I can get some almas piadosas (volunteers), I would like to get in contact with them as soon as possible. I can be reached at sergio_guzman@ccsn.edu or (702)651-4829. Once again, to summarize what I am looking for: Time frame: Spring 2007 Locations: California, Arizona, Houston, TX Schools: One community college, one university Study: a) 2 student surveys (10-15 min.); b) 2 classroom observations (per section); c) A teacher interview (30-45 min) and 2 student interviews per section (30 min.) I really hope I can find some valientes out there! ¡Muchísimas gracias! Guzman, S. [HERITAGE-LIST] Request for assistance: Call for educators teaching SNS (in CA, AZ & TX).
