(NAME-MCE) Multicultural and Social Justice Education Masters

Thu Oct 4 13:58:14 EDT 2007

At Virginia Tech, we offer an MA and a Ph.D. in Second Language Education
with a concentration in ESL. We have a strong emphasis on social justice in
working with linguistically diverse children k-12. Our program highlights
placing students as partners with immigrant families with the goal of
expanding their understanding of the abounding richness immigrants bring to
our country. At the same time, students gain a greater appreciation of the
challenges that immigrant children living in a monolingual household face
when attending a monolingual school where the school language is not their
heritage language.

Sorry for the mass email but for another option for a masters and 
licensure on the East Coast, the Early Childhood Education program birth 
to 8 (UTEEM) at George Mason University in Virginia is a nationally 
recognized model that prepares teachers to work with children and 
families from linguistically, culturally and ability diverse 
backgrounds. The program has a strong emphasis on social justice and 
multicultural education. Check GMU website for more information: 
www.gmu.edu and go to the College of Education and Human development 
pages. 
Thanks
