2018-2019 Academic Catalog [ARCHIVED CATALOG]

SPAN 202 - HCH (Herencia y Cultura Hispánicas)

HCH (Herencia y Cultura Hispánicas) (SPAN202) is meant to enable students to develop their knowledge of Hispanic Culture and Spanish Language while working with the Spanish speaking community in Worcester, MA. HCH is a multigenerational collaborative learning space where participants grow and learn from each other culturally, linguistically, and personally through an exploration of Hispanic culture. It is a bi-directional exchange between students at Clark University and Worcester Public Schools students between 8 and 10 years old, with an emphasis on Worcester Public Schools students as leaders in the cultural exchange process and undergraduates as leaders in the facilitation process. Considering the large Hispanic community in Worcester and the plurality of identities, our goal is to create a space of sharing, learning, discussion, and empowerment for Worcester Public Schools students as well as a space for increased cultural enrichment for Clark students.
