High schools in Hawaii are introducing a first-of-its-kind social studies course created by a group of Filipino students who felt their stories deserved a place in the classroom.⁠ ⁠ The "CHR 2300 Filipino History Culture" course will cover six units, including Identity, Philippine History, Culture and Connections, Filipinos in Hawaii and the U.S., Philippines in an Interconnected World and Community Engagement and Civic Action. The course aims to strengthen intergenerational relationships and make learning Filipino American History a regular part of every classroom, eliminating the need for a designated month to do so.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ✍️Article written by: Michelle De Pacina @michdepacina ⁠ 💬Comment “email” to sign up to our daily newsletter.⁠ ⁠ 📰Follow us for the latest Asian News @NextShark⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #news #hawaii #highschool #highschoolcurriculum #Philippines #FilipinoAmerican #culturalidentity #Filipinohistoryculture #Filipinohistory #publicschools #HawaiiDepartmentofEducation #MarissaHalaga...
