Migrant Students Following the Crops, Teachers Following Their Students: A Narrative Inquiry into Two Migrant Children Who Became Teachers
Abstract
This dissertation research explores the history of Migrant Education Programs in the United States through the lens of the lived experiences of two migrant children who become teachers of migrant and bilingual children. Organized into eight chapters, this dissertation tells the history of the Migrant Education Programs and each participant is able to share their experience through a first-person testimonio that includes family history along with their educational and teaching career trajectories. The study bridges the two worlds of experiences between migrant students and teachers of migrant children. The lives and experiences of migrant students who later become teachers of migrant children. By studying the lives of two teachers of migrant students who taught during an eight-week summer migrant education program, other educators can learn the ways in which they were able to reach their students and apply similar methods to the migrant children in their classrooms.
