Who is "Latino youth"? What exactly does s/he or can s/he learn from mainstream and alternative popular culture? Is this involvement problematic? How can we foster literate but critical viewers? How can teachers use film to address stereotyping, exclusion, censorship, ethnic identity, sexuality, interethnic relationships and conflict? This Summer A workshop is part of a multicultural series organized by the Film and Education Research Academy to assist middle and high school teachers in building strategies for the systematic use of film in their classrooms. The sessions are focused particularly on Latino/a teachers and teachers with Latino/a students, but they may also be helpful and to other teachers who want to diversify their curriculum or enhance their own cinematic literacy. Film knowledge and classroom strategies will be developed through viewings, readings, discussion, group exercises, and demonstration lessons. For more information and to register click here or go to
