Teacher Resources Latin America Curriculum Available document.write(' E-mail'); Print A curriculum unit aimed at helping secondary students learn more about Latin America is available free from the AFT. Prepared by the union's international affairs department, "Democracy as a Starting Point: The Civic Journey in Latin America," introduces students to the region and its people, history and traditions. It focuses specifically on the political and civic lives of Latin Americans and is designed to deepen understanding of their struggle for democracy and human rights. Students will be asked to examine the status of democracy in Latin America and to assess the conditions that support and threaten it there. They will also examine people's views of democracy in the region and the forces that shape those views. The lessons, which are highly interactive and student-centered, encourage students to employ higher-level thinking skills. The teaching unit was developed by the AFT and the Center for Civic Education, with funding from the U.S. Department of Education. A panel of social studies teachers put together by the AFT contributed their expertise and ideas to the project. Free copies can be obtained by writing to the AFT International Affairs Department, 555 New Jersey Ave. N.W., Washington, DC 20001, or by e-mailing

Headline Ticker for Teaching English Overseas As the world rushes to acquire English, the new lingua franca of international commerce, diplomacy, and higher education, the bulk of teaching opportunities abroad are for English teachers. Your "credential" is simply being a native speaker of the English language. Some formal ESL training, whether in TOEFL or TESOL, is almost always a plus when you seek to teach English abroad. The ability to teach ESL may be all you need to obtain a job and a work permit abroad in areas such as Asia and Eastern Europe. Many other English teaching jobs exist around the globe, as detailed below.

Latin American Resource Center "Fostering Education and Community Building in the 21st Century" DIALOGO - CONEXION TM The rapidly changing social and demographic environment of North Carolina is creating significant challenges for the state's teachers, students, and parents. In particular, immigration from Spanish-speaking countries is transforming North Carolina's communities and schools, creating a culturally and linguistically diverse social landscape that holds both new conflicts and new opportunities. North Carolina's teachers are working hard to adjust to these changes, but they often lack adequate resources, time, and skills to meet the challenges of a multicultural, multilingual student population. The DIALOGO - CONEXION TM , is a paid professional development program, designed to help teachers respond to these changes with increased knowledge, appropriate resources, energy, and creativity.
