Jun 24th, 2008 by admin
In recent times a lot of researched are dedicated to such problem as psychological consequences of immigration. And as apart of this wide research a smaller kind of research is carrying out. The subject of this research is education of children of immigrants in Spain.
In general the process of immigration causes deep changes in the people’s minds and also these changes are complicated by such things as separation from close relatives and family members. Of course today a lot of processes of reunion are held on, but nevertheless all feelings, emotions, state of mind and soul of immigrants influence the process of education and perception of the whole process of education.
There are two sided in this influence. First one means that hard work of immigrants, the fight for surviving and other similar factors prevent from educational process. The other side is that all things which immigrants had seen and experiences during the process of resettlement persuade them that education is very important nowadays. That’s why a lot of immigrants are highly interested and motivated in getting education.
So, one of the main idea of this research is to show how the process of education of immigrants’ children influences their life within family, how it influences thoughts, views, expectations of the family of immigrants.
Results show that such immigrants have strong meritocratic views and thanks to their strength and persistence then can achieve a lot in their life.
