[Harold Schiffman]

Forwarded From: BILING at listserv.umd.edu


The deadline for applications for the Seventh Heritage Language
Research Institute, Heritage Speakers and the Advantages of
Bilingualism, is April 1. The institute will take place from 17-21
June at the University of Illinois at Chicago; for further information
visit our website where the application page can also be found.

Applications are invited from language instructors, linguists, and
researchers from other fields, including doctoral students and
post-doctoral fellows, whose current focus involves heritage language
teaching and/or research.

 The Institute, sponsored by the UCLA National Heritage Language
Resource Center, will focus on the linguistic, cognitive, and
sociocultural advantages enjoyed by heritage speakers. Pedagogical
approaches that aim to build on the bilingual knowledge of these
speakers will be highlighted, as well as experimental methodologies in
language sciences and sociolinguistic aspects pertaining to heritage
language speakers.

 Sincerely,

 Claire Chik
