Question on assessing technology for endangered language communities

[Susan Penfield]

QUESTION:

Has anyone done any specific research addressing the question of how
technology (broadly) is impacting indigenous language communities?  And / or
how it is specifically being assessed, in terms of community involvement,
 as an instrument for either documenting or revitalizing endangered
languages?

Any input appreciated!

Susan
