The second CMAS Faculty Book Plática features Emilio Zamora, Professor in the Department of History and faculty affiliate of CMAS. Professor Zamora edited and translated (translation with Ben Maya) The World War I Diary of José de la Luz Sáenz (Texas A&M University Press, 2014).

CMAS Faculty Book Plática: Emilio Zamora

Wed, May 7, 2014 • 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM • Quadrangle Room (UNB 3.304), Texas Union, The University of Texas at Austin

The Center for Mexican American Studies (CMAS) hosts a book plática series focusing on the recent work of our faculty affiliates. The CMAS Faculty Book Plática Series provides a forum for the discussion of new books published during the academic year.
The second CMAS Faculty Book Plática features Emilio Zamora, Professor in the Department of History and faculty affiliate of CMAS. Professor Zamora edited and translated (translation with Ben Maya) The World War I Diary of José de la Luz Sáenz (Texas A&M University Press, 2014). A skilled and dedicated teacher in South Texas before and after the war, José de la Luz Sáenz’s served with the 90th Division and saw action in two of the War’s major offensives. Aside from addressing the problem of discrimination at home and in the U.S. military, Sáenz recounts the horrific war experience that he and his fellow soldiers faced, as well as the bravery and gallantry of Mexican soldiers under fire. Sáenz also speaks extensively of Mexican “battlefield sacrifices” as a moral basis for claiming equal rights at the homefront. In 1929, four years before the publication of the diary, Sáenz participates in the establishment of the League of United Latin American Citizens and influences the civil rights organization to adopt the record of battlefield sacrifice in its fight against discrimination and segregation.
A panel of commentators, Professor Andrés Tijerina (Austin Community College) and Martha P. Cotera (activist and independent scholar), will join Professor Zamora to discuss the book.

Call for Proposals: 10th annual Critical Questions in Education Conference

Greetings, friends, from the Academy for Educational Studies:

We send you this message to invite you to submit a presentation proposal for the 10th annual Critical Questions in Education Conference to be held in two different locations this year: 
  • October 13th -- 15th2014 at the Brown Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky.  Deadline for proposals is July 1st, 2014. 
  • February 16th – 18th, 2015 at the U S Grant Hotel in San Diego, California.  Deadline for proposals is November 1st, 2014.

Again this year, we think we have selected timely and provocative theme questions—though we still welcome proposals on one of our past theme questions. (See the Call for Proposals, attached, for a full list of topics.)  Our 2014/2015 theme questions are:

Why have civil rights era educational legislation and policy in the United States failed our most vulnerable students?
How should we address the needs of these students in and out of school?
and
How is schooling conducted in other countries?  What can we learn from the policies, purposes,
and practices of education systems—or individual schools—from around the world?

Presenters are encouraged to shape responses to these questions in any way they like.  Please see the Call for Proposals for some suggestions on how these questions might be approached.  

We hope you will submit a proposal and come join us this year—friends sharing some important talk about some provocative educational questions.  We also hope you will share this Call for Proposals with friends and colleagues—and with any list-serves which might accept it.

If you have any questions about what the Academy has been up to, or questions about the conference, please feel free to contact me.

Parental Involvement that Matters,
From Birth to Third Grade

Developing Academic, Social and Emotional Readiness for Student Success

Featuring Keith Robinson, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor, Department of Sociology
Faculty Research Associate, Population Research Center
The University of Texas at Austin

Dr. Robinson is the co-author of "The Broken Compass: Parental Involvement with Children's Education," which shares data from the largest-ever study on how parental involvement affects academic performance.
 
New research indicates that many of our ‘tried and true’ methods of parental involvement are not, in fact, producing academic gains. How, then, can parental involvement effectively prepare a child for full engagement in the classroom and academic success? Our panel will discuss the data and explore impactful parenting strategies for developing academic, social and emotional readiness to create a foundation for children to succeed in the classroom.

MODIFICACIÓN DE SUSTANTIVOS EN HÑÄÑHO (OTOMÍ)
Noemí Guerrero HernándezUniversidad Autónoma de Querétaro, Maestría de Estudios Amerindios y Educación Bilingüe
La presente charla busca insertarse dentro de los estudios que se han realizado sobre el otomí, y que constituyen las bases del mismo, contribuyendo al conocimiento de la situación lingüística actual de esta lengua. Particularmente, se pretende explorar un fenómeno sintáctico asociado a la categoría léxica de adjetivos, común en muchas lenguas pero no en otomí. Se propone analizar la función de los modificadores de sustantivos en otomí y cómo dicha función se ha visto influenciada por el contacto de esta lengua con el español.
“MI ABUELA GUARDÓ EN SU FAJA LOS CONSEJOS QUE LE DIO SU MADRE”. SOBRE LA METÁFORA INDÍGENA MAZAHUA
Cynthia Piña QuintanaUniversidad Autónoma de Querétaro, Maestría en Estudios Amerindios y Educación Bilingüe
Esta presentación es un acercamiento a la cosmovisión mazahua, pueblo indígena de México considerado hermético por muchos investigadores. Los mazahuas han conformado una visión del mundo muy particular. Desde la mirada de las metáforas contenidas en su lenguaje se puede conocer su ideología en temas relacionados con la mujer y la manera en cómo ellos se relacionan con el entorno. Se analiza la metáfora lingüística desde la perspectiva de varios investigadores (Fillmore, Lakoff & Johnson, Fauconnier & Turner) para mostrar sus carencias y cómo superarlas.
Please note that the presentations will be conducted in Spanish and no translation services will be available.
