Iomairteachd Chànain - Language Activism

Iomairteachd Chànain - Language Activism

This is a full description of the Language Activism [Iomairteachd Chànain] element of the Gaelic and Communication course, a language learning task designed drawing on research into the Scéimeanna Cónaithe (Irish-Language residential schemes) at Irish universities. This task is designed to help students develop their identities and confidence as active Gaelic speakers outside of class and to strengthen our unique Gaelic immersion environment at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig. It is anticipated that this material could be of use to educators teaching Gaelic to university students anywhere in Scotland and could be employed in a variety of educational contexts, including at English-medium universities where Gaelic is taught as a subject.
