UC MEXUS-CONACYT Collaborative Grant project
This project linked researchers and students from six
different colleges and universities in Mexico and the
United States. The researchers and students in the
Yucatan carried out a series of investigations to
better understand the linguistic practices in the
childrens classrooms and homes and the attitudes
towards Mayan language and culture characteristic of
the childrens parents and teachers. The Mexican team
participated in regular Internet-mediated
videoconferences with researchers and students from
four different U.S. universities.
