  • Southern Arizona, United States of America
    Southern Arizona, United States of America 2 – ASSESSMENT AND RECOMMENDATIONS Assessment and recommendations Southern Arizona region: from a resource-based economy to a knowledge-based economy Southern Arizona is the southern-most part of the state of Arizona in the United States. bordering the Mexican state of Sonora, with a multi-cultural heritage and a major gateway for trade with Mexico. The vast desert region consists of Pima County, Cochise County and Santa Cruz County, and has a population of approximately 1.2 million, accounting for 18% of the state population. The engine of the region’s development is the Tucson metropolitan area, the second largest metropolitan area in the state, just behind the Phoenix metropolitan area. About 23% of the land in Southern Arizona is owned by Native Americans, Tohono O’odham and Pascua Yaqui Nations, who continue to feature low education, labour market and health outcomes. Population growth is a major strength in the region, an opportunity for many industry sectors, but at the same time it poses cultural, economic and political challenges. Since World War II, Arizona has had one of the fastest growing populations in the United States. Between 1990 and 2000, Arizona experienced a 40.0% population increase which slowed down to 26.7% between 2000 and 2008. In Southern Arizona, the corresponding figures were 26.0% and 18.4%. Arizona has the fastest growing Hispanic population in the US, comprising about 25% of the state population and 27% of that of Southern Arizona. In Tucson, 40% of the residents identify themselves as Hispanic, while in Santa Cruz the majority of population are Hispanic.

  • Creating Culture Through Food, a Study of Traditional Argentine Foods
    Unit Title: Creating Culture through Food: A Study of Traditional Argentine Foods Author: Kyra Brogden George Watts Magnet Montessori, Durham, NC Subject Area: Writing and Language, Social Studies Topic: Food and culture Grade Level: 1st, 2nd, 3rd (Lower Elementary) Time Frame: 4 days of 45-minute lessons on Argentine food, nutrition and culture Cooking: 3 days of cooking and 1 day to put together the cookbook *The cooking lessons will require more time and resources. Also the cookbook may require going through a rough draft and final copy that can occur after the lessons themselves are completed. That can be done at the teachers’ discretion. Brief Summary: This unit will focus on helping students understand the role of nutrition and food in defining a culture by studying Argentine nutrition and food. The first four lessons will focus on comparing nutritional guidelines, evaluating food, and a discussion about meal times in both the United States and Argentina. The students will then embark on a series of three lessons that each focus on a traditional Argentine food. The students will cook the food, create a nutritional analysis, learn about the history of that food, and then write food reviews. The students will ultimately make a cookbook with the recipes, pictures, nutritional analysis, and their own food review. Established Goals are taken from the Common Core Standards for Grade 2: Research to Build and Present Knowledge 7. Participate in shared research and writing projects (e.g. read a number of books on a single topic to produce a report; record science observations) 8.

  • NIEW YORK Third
    Third MARCH 27/ APRIL 2 1987 NIEW YORK Third SPAIN IN NEW YORK MARCH 27/APEIL 3 1987 THE GUILD 50»h ST. THEATER (ROCKEFELLER PLAZA) Puntual a la ata, un año más, el "Festival de Cine Español" se presenta en Nueva York, como una embajada de la cinematografía de nuestro país. Este año hemos ampliado hasta catorce el número de películas que se proyectarán. Catorce títulos de un año de producción, sobre un total de sesenta, constituyen, en mi opinión, una muestra muy representativa de la temporada cinematográfíca española 198&87. Una temporada que me atrevo a calificar de esperanzadora en el difícil pero interesante y personal camino que el cine español está recorriendo desde la instauración de la libertad creadora1. Un camino que no ha sido fácil de recorrer, y en el que nuestro cine ha emprendido la dura tarea de reencontrarse a sí mismo, abiertamente, decididamente, después de tantos años de ambigüedad, de falsas y tortuosas fórmulas. Pocas artes como la cinematografía son capaces de reflejar en forma tan puntual la idiosincrasia de un país, su problemática sociopolítica, su cultura. Yo espero que esta películas que hoy ofrecemos puedan acercarles a la imagen de una nación que intenta mostrar al mundo su capacidad creadora, sus valores artísticos, que, enraizados en el pasado, pretenden integrarse, con personalidad propia, en el conjunto universal de búsqueda de nuevas formas. JAVIER SOLANA MADARIAGA Ministro de Cultura IV Once again, for the third time in recent years, we are pleased to present the Festival of Films from Spain in Flew York, representing a kind of embassy of the motion picture industry from our country.
