Description
Professor Patricia Greenfield of University of California at Los Angeles presents a method for bridging collectivistic and individualistic value orientations in the American classroom for this symposium on applied psychology. Specifically, Bridging Cultures is a, "…research based, cross cultural training program for educators based on the idea that implicit value differences between school and home cause the most basic problems for immigrant or Native American children and their families." Though it may generalize to a variety of cultural systems found in the American classroom, most of the work has focused on Latino immigrant children in the Los Angeles area school system.
