<h2><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-weight:normal'>There certainly is much
written and used with technology and second language acquisition, so I see no
reason why it would not be as effective for language preservation and
revitalization. It just appears that there has not been a lot published, so a
field waiting to be explored. I think that certainly technology and language
preservation would be important, but that the technology should not replace the
human interaction that is the most important for keeping the language in
context. <o:p></o:p></span></h2>
