\nIntroduction to multilingual and multicultural perspectives on Hawai\u02bbi\nSLS 680U – Introduction to Multilingual and Multicultural Perspectives and Practices<\/b>
\nThis\u00a0course\u00a0introduces students to concepts, theories, policies and practices of multilingual language use (spoken and written), supported by multicultural orientations and practices, within the contemporary context of Hawai\u02bbi as a society with substantial linguistic and cultural diversity, including indigenous populations, homegrown Pidgin speakers, sojourners and tourists, the results of successive waves of migration, colonization, and globalization. Though recognizing Hawai\u02bbi\u02bbs unique features, the\u00a0course\u00a0also locates Hawai’i within a world in which multilingualism and multiculturalism have become (or always were) the norm in many communities.\n

The\u00a0course\u00a0will be of interest to graduate students with professional interests in language, arising from professional schools or areas such as education, law, social work, medicine, or business as well as those primarily interested in languages, multilingualism, multiculturalism, and applied linguistics.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
