Asian-American Children: What Teachers Should Know. ERIC Digest. Asian-Americans constitute a significant minority in the U.S. and are one of the fastest growing ethnic groups in this country, yet little is known about their particular educational needs, especially at the early childhood and elementary levels. This digest provides information to help teachers gain a better understanding of Asian-American children, particularly those from East and Southeast Asian cultures, and identify culturally appropriate educational practices to use with those children. ASIAN-AMERICAN CHILDREN: WHO ARE THEY? The term Asian-American covers a variety of national, cultural, and religious heritages. Indeed, Asian-Americans represent more than 29 distinct subgroups who differ in language, religion, and customs. The four major groups of Asian-Americans are East Asian, such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean; Pacific Islander; Southeast Asian, such as Thai and Vietnamese; and South Asian, such as Indian and Pakistani (Pang, 1990). Although there are similarities among the various subgroups, they have different origins, ecological adaptations, and histories. ASIAN-AMERICAN CHILDREN: ARE THEY ALL "WHIZ KIDS"?

Lynn Hayes and Barbara Luetke-Stahlman P. Lynn Hayes, PhD, earned her doctorate from the University of Pittsburgh and is an associate professor in the teacher training program in deaf education at the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, KS.

A s the percentage of students from racial and ethnic and cultural minorities increases in school classrooms, more materials have become available to answer teachers' concerns. Teachers of deaf and hard of hearing children who are members of ethnic minorities would like to know how to help these children develop self-esteemat least if the results of a Midwestern survey can be generalized. The survey was sent to 64 teachers in schools and programs in two Midwestern states. In the surveys, teachers were asked to rank the importance of various kinds of knowledge in working with students from ethnic minorities. Although all factors in the survey were ranked important, knowledge of ways to help minority students develop self-esteem ranked most important, earning a 1.45 on a 1 to 5 scale. In second place, teachers ranked the need for knowledge of ways to involve parents of deaf minority students in the educational process (1.48). Thirdly, they wanted knowledge to be able to assess the speech and language of their minority students (1.68) and knowledge of linguistic diversity (1.69).

This education section accompanies the program SEARCHING FOR ASIAN AMERICA, a 90-minute program that serves up a genuine taste of what it's like to be Asian American in today's ever-changing United States. These pages consist of three learning activities designed for 7th-12th grade social studies and language arts teachers. Each activity offers extensions and online resources. The activities are best used once students have viewed the film or individual program segments. Each activity can be modified, if necessary, to address younger students' learning levels. The activities incorporate the film's specific focus on Asian Americans, while allowing students to venture beyond obvious themes to examine the program's concepts more globally. When reviewing Gary Locke's status as the first Asian American governor, students consider leadership qualities and their relationship to ethnicity. Lela Lee's comic commentary on Asian American and other societal issues gives students an opportunity to address personal, community, or global concerns in a similar fashion. The activity based on the Filipino American doctors has students delve into the challenges that immigrants typically face when coming to the United States.
