Book excerpt: High-Achieving Latino Students: Successful Pathways Toward College and Beyond addresses a long-standing need for a book that focuses on the success, not failure, of Latino students. While much of the existing research works from a deficit lens, this book uses a strength-based approach to support Latino achievement. Bringing together researchers and practitioners, this unique book provides research-based recommendations from early to later school years on “what works” for supporting high achievement. Praise for High-Achieving Latino Students "This book focuses on an important issue about which we know little. There are many lessons here for both scholars and educators who believe that Latino students can succeed. I congratulate the authors for taking on this timely and significant topic." ~ Guadalupe Valdés, Ph.D., Bonnie Katz Tenenbaum Professor in Education, Stanford University. Author of Con Respeto: Bridging the Distances Between Culturally Diverse Families and Schools "This is a must-read book for leaders in institutions of both K-12 and higher education who want to better understand success factors of Latino students in the US. Using a strength-based framework to understand and support Latino achievement is a new paradigm that must be considered by all." ~ Loui Olivas, Ed.D., President, American Association of Hispanics in Higher Education "In addition to being the right book at the right time, these editors should be congratulated for giving us a stellar example of how a research-practice collaboration comes together to produce such a valuable and lasting contribution to the field of school reform and improvement. Those who work in schools, universities, think tanks and policymaking centers have been waiting anxiously for this kind of book, and it’s now here." ~ Carl A. Cohn, Ed.D., Former Executive Director, California Collaborative for Educational Excellence, CA State Board of Education member, and Superintendent "There may not be a silver bullet for solving the so-called problem of Latino underachievement, but well-conceived solutions do exist. This powerful book offers strength- and asset-based frameworks that demonstrate Latino achievement is possible. Read this text to not only get informed, but to also get nurtured and inspired!" ~ Angela Valenzuela, Ph.D., Professor in Education, University of Texas at Austin.

This book was released on 2006-02-23 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hispanics and the Future of America presents details of the complex story of a population that varies in many dimensions, including national origin, immigration status, and generation. The papers in this volume draw on a wide variety of data sources to describe the contours of this population, from the perspectives of history, demography, geography, education, family, employment, economic well-being, health, and political engagement. They provide a rich source of information for researchers, policy makers, and others who want to better understand the fast-growing and diverse population that we call "Hispanic." The current period is a critical one for getting a better understanding of how Hispanics are being shaped by the U.S. experience. This will, in turn, affect the United States and the contours of the Hispanic future remain uncertain. The uncertainties include such issues as whether Hispanics, especially immigrants, improve their educational attainment and fluency in English and thereby improve their economic position; whether growing numbers of foreign-born Hispanics become citizens and achieve empowerment at the ballot box and through elected office; whether impending health problems are successfully averted; and whether Hispanics' geographic dispersal accelerates their spatial and social integration. The papers in this volume provide invaluable information to explore these issues.

Book excerpt: The purpose of the study is to explore the perceptions of postsecondary persistence among first-generation college students of Latino, Hispanic, Chicano, Mexican-American or of other Latino origin (self-identified) who attended community college as part of their undergraduate collegiate experience. In particular, where they encountered support in attending college and who or what influenced them to pursue higher education at the university level. Along with this support, I explore how cultural and social capital mediated their persistence in transferring from a community college to a four-year university. Pierre Bourdieu's theories of cultural and social capital were used as the overarching theoretical framework as scholars have argued that first generation college attendees are at risk for successful completion because they lack familial knowledge of the college experience. The research design invoked the qualitative methodology of one on one interviews that were then analyzed for trends as well as unique phenomena. I interviewed six subjects willing to share personal information (kept confidential by pseudonym), on topics such as: personal and familial ethnic and scholastic history; messages, ideas and examples received in the home regarding education, work and money; relationships with community college personnel and potential transfer agents; as well as perceptions for the overall reasons for their academic persistence. The intended benefits of this study include an increased understanding of Latino students' sources of support, successes, and their methods of overcoming obstacles. As the Latino population grows in the United States, there is a need to understand how we might better serve this population and augment their rates of baccalaureate attainment. This research may aid students and educators interested in the unique, everyday experiences of successful Latino undergraduates in the postsecondary pipeline.
