It is meant to empower our Latinx community with an affirmation of our own cultura, identity, and valuable contributions to literature, academia, and the arts. The resource guide is a living repository of material. It includes lists of books, e-books, article databases, streaming videos, and accessible online resources. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cultural Curriculum Audit

Long Beach City College (LBCC) has implemented a cultural curriculum audit to increase Latino students’ success by engaging its faculty in four key areas:

1. Redesigning course content through a Latino lens.
2. Redesigning classroom experiences ensuring that Latino students have the space to engage in the classroom comparably to their peers
3. Redesigning assignments confirming expectations are stated in transparent ways
4. Redesigning approaches to assessment by giving student feedback in supportive ways. Core success rates for Latino students in these courses increased at double the rate of Latino students in courses with non-trained faculty.
