Advanced Spanish Service-Learning: Campus Workers' Health and Empowerment Outreach

Quarter-long course
Education & Youth Development
Advanced Spanish Service-Learning: Campus Workers' Health and Empowerment Outreach
Students will develop advanced Spanish language proficiency through the examination of various topics, including women's health, parent child relationships, mental health, and more. The class will include expert commentary from doctors, mental health professionals, human rights specialists, migrants, and campus workers. Medical, psychological, and social implications of migration will be examined. To fulfill service-learning requirements, and earn units for volunteer hours outside class time, students will enroll concurrently in the companion course SPANLANG 110SL. Service-learning opportunities will involve direct engagement with Spanish-speaking campus workers, focusing on basic topics related to women's health, healthy family relations, and self-care. Some service-learning hours will take place on campus, while other hours will take place in the local community. Additionally, students may collaborate with the teaching team to coordinate with our partners (maintenance and janitorial services, UG2, and others) to negotiate schedules and develop partnerships. To enroll, please ensure that you qualify to enroll in a third-year Spanish class and contact Instructor Vivian Brates at vbrates@stanford.edu to request a class code. Taught entirely in Spanish. Cardinal Course (certified by Haas Center). Prerequisite: completion of SPANLANG 13, 23B, or placement test equivalent to SPANLANG 100 or higher.
