Book excerpt: Professional and community organizations gathered for a weekend summit in May 1992 to articulate how the National Education Goal 4 ("U.S. students will be first in the world in science and mathematics achievement") could be achieved within the Hispanic community. This publication summarizes the major education issues, and highlights the summit recommendations and the formation of the Hispanic Secretariat for Mathematics and Science Education that resulted from the gathering. It discusses the status of the education of Hispanics, including barriers from grade school to higher education, and addresses the underrepresentation of Hispanics in mathematics and science careers. Recommended goals are presented under the following headings: curriculum and skills K-12, preparing the best educators, parent involvement, and higher education. A list of summit participants is appended. (MKR)

Book excerpt: There are many reasons that attention should be devoted to Hispanic culture and its influence on American society. The most obvious is that Hispanics are the largest ethnic minority in the U.S. The importance of this population was recognized in 1988 by the establishment of National Hispanic American Heritage Month. For this reason, it is essential to learn what it means to be Hispanic in the U.S. This modern-day reference is ideal for educators and students as well as stakeholders who want to learn more about the rich and invaluable influence Hispanics have on America's society. An educational preparation will likely begin by seeking answers to the following questions. What should I know about the Hispanic population in the U.S. - e.g., demographics, schooling, and employment? What is the history of Hispanic habitation in the U.S. - e.g., how does immigration play a part? What were the challenges and accomplishments of Hispanics who earned renown for careers in commercial, scientific, and legal fields? What are good sources of information about such matters? You will find answers to these and similar questions in the following eight chapters and discussion guide. In these times troubled by divisiveness and anger, such cultural broadening is especially important. To this end, many educational programs have been initiated that are intended to create and sustain mutual understanding. This understanding fosters equity, empathy, and belonging. These chapters were prepared to develop a well-informed understanding and appropriate appreciation of Hispanics in America.
