  • Staying Connected
    Staying Connected PCC Retirees Association April 2016 The History Department and Retirees Association Want to Tell Your Story as Part of PCC’s 100th Anniversary Pasadena City College will be celebrating its 100th Anniversary in 2024, and the Retirees Association and the History Department are coordinating an effort to document every retiree’s role in making PCC one of the top community colleges in the state. Every one of you has made a significant difference during the time you spent at the college. It doesn’t matter what job you did on the campus, you were a part of the history and contributed to the success of this college. That’s why the Retirees Association would like to encourage you to tell your story so it can be a permanent part of the college’s history. When PCC celebrated its 75th Anniversary, a commemorative booklet was printed to mark the occasion. However, in the last few decades there have been numerous changes and tremendous growth on the campus. This coupled with a significant number of retirements has left the college’s institutional memory lacking. So many things that should be a part of the college’s archives are either gone or misplaced. That’s where the 100th Anniversary Project comes in. We would like to collect autobiographical information about your time at PCC. Each and every one of you has a story to tell, and we want to hear about it from you. A college is a lot more than the instructors and the students. The non-teaching staff ensures that rooms are available, classes are scheduled and books ordered for students to buy.

  • JAIME ESCALANTE: EL MAESTRO DE LECCIONES INOLVIDABLES Abdón Pari Condori [email protected] Universidad Nacional De Educación, Ecuador
    CB-140 JAIME ESCALANTE: EL MAESTRO DE LECCIONES INOLVIDABLES Abdón Pari Condori [email protected] Universidad Nacional de Educación, Ecuador Núcleo temático: Formación de profesores de matemáticas Modalidad: Comunicación Breve Nivel educativo: No específico Palabras clave: Jaime Escalante, enseñanza de la matemática, profesor de matemática, historia de vida. Resumen En esta comunicación se presenta parte de la vida de Jaime Escalante, el maestro que usó las matemáticas como el motor del cambio social para sus estudiantes de Garfield High School de Los Angeles, California, logrando que sobresalieran en matemáticas compitiendo con estudiantes de las mejores escuelas del país. Las vidas y carreras profesionales que siguieron sus estudiantes en los años posteriores a su formación en Garfield demostraron la importancia de sus métodos a largo plazo. Su experiencia fue motivo de inspiración para el libro Escalante: The Best Teacher in America, y la película de Stand and Deliver y conocido en España como Lecciones inolvidables. Sin embargo, una y otra vez, su filosofía de que todo estudiante es capaz de grandes logros, independiente de sus circunstancias suscita interés. Por ejemplo, el programa educativo “El conocimiento es poder” (Knowledge Is Power Program, KIPP), que implementa el modelo de gestión está directamente inspirada en Escalante. La investigación se enmarca dentro del enfoque historias de vida y utiliza el método biográfico apoyado en técnicas interactivas y no interactivas. INTRODUCCIÓN Jaime Escalante, el profesor de matemáticas que alcanzó el reconocimiento como el mejor profesor de América (Mathews, 1988; Perkins, 2003; Schraff, 2009, Pari, 2011 y 2015). Por ejemplo, fue honrado con una estampilla el año 2016.
