4 Page 4 COURSE READER/TEXTBOOK Suggested: Required; current textbooks on US-Mexico Border Health are outdated. The class course reader contains core material required to master the subject matter for the course. Puro Border, LH Crosthwaite, JW Byrd, B Byrd (eds), Cinco Puntos Press, SUPPLEMENTAL READING Supplemental monographs and articles will be posted in PDF format on the MyUCLA website during the course. These articles will provide background and an introduction to topics presented in each upcoming session. It is important that supplemental reading material be reviewed prior to each session. Because of limited contact time in the classroom, lectures and discussions will develop upon the readings for that session. If you are unable to attend a class, supplemental readings should be read and questions used for class discussion will be ed to you to review and submit for class credit. COURSE REQUIREMENTS AND GRADING Course grade is by letter only. The grade will be based on a literature review presentation and written analysis (1-2 pages with references) for the four case studies conducted during the class. Attendance is expected at each class session, if you cannot attend a session; please contact the instructor for a possible excused absence. Final grades will be based on the following breakdown: 1. Literature review presentation and discussion 10% Each student is expected to present a 10 to 15 minute discussion of an article or paper related to border health and security. Discussion material may be obtained from the scientific literature, current printed news sources, or the Internet. Students should be prepared to relate their selected article to the topic of border health and security and should present a critical analysis of the concepts and conclusions presented in the reference article. Also, the applicability of the article to the field of public health should be discussed. At the first class session, specific elements expected of the presentations will be presented and students will sign up for specific dates to present their literature discussions (1-2 student presentations for each class session). 2. Case Study Analysis 40% (10% for each of four case studies) Case studies are used as a teaching method in the course. Short, directed case studies will be presented for discussion and review a week prior to the scheduled class meeting that is scheduled for a specific case study. Students will be asked to refer to current literature, textbooks and other sources for information regarding the topic of the case study. A short
5 Page 5 written discussion will be submitted on the day of class for which a case study is reviewed. Each case study discussion paper should be a minimum of one page (typed, double spaced) and should also include citations to any references used. The written case study discussions will be combined to form 40% of the class grade. 3. Mid-Term Exam 15% A mid-term exam will be included in the course performance evaluation. The exam will be based on essay questions that gauge the depth of understanding and thought each student has developed for key issues of US-Mexico border public health. Students who regularly attend class will be most successful with the mid-term examination. The mid-term exam is also designed as a tool to initiate exploration of the topics covered in the remainder of the course. The mid-term exam will be conducted during class in week five of the quarter. The mid-term will be of one hour in duration. 4. Final Paper 35% A final paper will be required of each student. This paper will address a focused issue related to border health or security. Each paper is to be typed in 12 point font and of approximately ten (10) double-spaced pages in length. The paper must include relevant reference citations. Potential final paper subjects will be identified during initial class sessions. Prior to writing the paper, each student must discuss his or her choice of subject with an instructor. Proper grammar, spelling, and format are expected. The paper will be due during the final exam week of the quarter. GENERAL STATEMENT ON GRADING AND ASSIGNMENTS Most students will receive a grade of A or B in this course. An A grade is achieved by doing exceptional work in the course and contributing not only to one s own education but also to the education of all in the course (including the instructors). A C in the course indicates below standard achievement that usually results from lack of class attendance, ongoing tardiness, and lack of interest in class participation, not reading course materials and returning written assignments that reveal a lack of attainment of the majority of the course goals. For grading purposes, an A grade for an assignment is equal to 4.0 points, B equal to 3.0 points, C equal to 2.0 points, D equal to 1.0 points and F or incomplete equal to 0.0 points. Final class grade is calculated by average of individual assignment grades with the higher letter grade given (rounded up) for X.5 or higher fractional elements. NOTICE OF LANGUAGE FOR COURSE This course is unique in that many students may be bi-lingual in both Spanish and English. Course instructors will be sharing teaching material that is both English and Spanish language in origin. While Spanish language presentations and materials are possibly appropriate in such a course, to insure uniformity and understanding by all students, the course will be conducted in English. Proper pronunciation of formal Latino names and terms used in the context of the class will be emphasized to be culturally respectful.
6 Page 6 STATEMENT OF CAUTION AND APPEAL At all times, respect of others and a mature attitude is expected of all course participants. Some topics covered in the course are of sensitive ethnic, gender, religious, and political natures. It is extremely important that all class participants observe the rights of others to speak and express their opinion on any matter in open discussion. Students are encouraged to ask for an immediate break to speak to the instructor if the discussion in progress is personally disturbing or offensive. Please notify the instructor in person, by phone, or by if at any time the course is falling below your expectations or you feel the course should be re-directed.
