Abstract:
Cette étude explore la narration en espagnol émergente depuis 2010, produite par des auteurs latino-américains et espagnols « disloqués » aux États-Unis, souvent institutionnellement catégorisés comme « latinos », « hispaniques » ou « latinx ». L’accent est mis sur le phénomène du New Latino Boom, qui, depuis 2017, revendique l’espagnol comme un vecteur d’identité et d’expression culturelle. L'objectif de cette thèse est de combler un vide critique en (re)cartographiant les facteurs socioculturels, littéraires et extralittéraires qui soutiennent une narration marquée par le déracinement physiq

Abstract:
The underrepresentation of minority students in gifted programs is well documented, and is due, in large part, to limited definitions of giftedness and inadequate identification techniques. New methods of locating and identifying gifted minority students must be developed. The peer referral procedure has been cited as one method for locating students who may be gifted but are overlooked by the most common referral source--classroom teachers, but researchers have not investigated directly the use of peer referral for locating minority students in any ethnic group.

A review of the literature shows that there is much evidence to suggest the challenges facing Hispanic students in American public schools. Hispanic enrollment in K-12 public schools has increased from 6 to 19% in the last thirty years, yet schools have not made adequate adjustments to accommodate this changing population. Issues such as remedial tracking and cultural differences have led to low high school graduate rates for Hispanic students and inequities in schooling experiences (Gay, 2000).

The issue of undocumented immigration has recently taken center-stage in the media and national politics in the United States.

Following high school, undocumented Hispanic/Latino youth legal protections end, greatly limiting chances for upward mobility through traditional post-secondary education pipelines.

The present study examines the creation of one branch of what we now call “young adult literature” from its roots in the United States in the early twentieth century to its emergence as a dominant literary form in the mid-to-late 1960s.
