Linda Dutcher participates in program Linda Dutcher, Language arts teacher at Heppner High School, has completed the first phase of a special study program on East Asian Cultures at the University of Oregon. This program, funded by a grant from the National En dowment for the Humanities to the Oregon International Council, began with a four- week summer Institute on "Individual and Society in East A sia", completed on Ju ly 15. Thirty O regon educators, from elementary and secondary schools statewide, explored concepts and roles associated with the individual in C hinese, Jap an ese and Korean societies, to learn about key aspects of those cultures, and to gain a better understanding of the roots of diversity and community in Asia and the United States. The institute was conducted by internationally known scholars, including professor Richard M adsen of the University of California/San Diego (China), associate pro fessor Stephen Kohl of the University of Oregon (Japan) and professor Clark Sorensen of the U niversity of Washington (Korea). Pro fessor Madsen is a specialist in Chinese sociology who co authored two books about modern American society, "H abits of the Heart" and "T he Good Society," and was thus qualified to offer in sights into cultures on both sides of the Pacific. His col leagues brought approaches to the study of Japan and Korea, aided by other scholars and specialists in teaching about Asia. The program will continue during the coming school year, with visits to each par ticipant's school by institute staff, follow-up conferences to help institute participants complete teaching plans, and statew ide distribution of selected teaching units. An additional series of weekend seminars will help other educators, who were unable to attend the summer session, to broaden their knowledge of the individual's role in China, Japan and Korea. This project is the latest step in the Oregon International Council's decade-long effort to achieve a stronger interna tional dimension for Oregon education. Since its formation in 1982 the council has assisted some 1,500 Oregon teachers to learn and teach about unfamiliar nations and cu ltu res, aided by over $1,000,000 in grants from federal and, other sources., "T h e work being done by Dutcher is a further contribu tion to preparing Oregon's youth for the 21 century," said an Oregon International news release.
