  • DESCRIPTION

    This collection presents new investigations into the roles of heritage languages and the correlation between culture and language from a pedagogic and cosmopolitical point of view.Rethinking Heritage Language Education is an edited collection that brings together emerging and established researchers interested in the education field of Heritage Language Education to negotiate its concepts and practices, and investigate the correlation between culture and language from a pedagogic and cosmopolitical point of view. The scholars, who have contributed to the growth of Heritage Language Education as a discipline, reconsider and enrich their findings by drawing new lines across the boundaries of research and practice. Rethinking Heritage Language Education complements the previous work of these theorists, filling a void in the current literature around the question of Heritage Language Education.- See more at: http://education.cambridge.org/uk/subject/teaching-practice-and-professional-development/the-cambridge-education-research-series/rethinking-heritage-language-education#sthash.e7KPwwAG.dpuf
