ADULT MOHAWK LANGUAGE IMMERSION PROGRAMMING
Abstract
ABSTRACT. One method the Mohawk people have used intermittently since 1985 to help with the revitalization and preservation of the Mohawk language is adult immersion programming. In 2001, this study was conducted throughout the Mohawk Nation to determine what factors contribute to the retention of adult students in Mohawk language-immersion programs. Information gathered from program administrators, instructors, students, and two Mohawk Elders is brought together to provide a 'one-minded' overview of what works and what doesn't work in adult Mohawk immersion programming. PROGRAMME D'IMMERSION EN LANGUE MOHAWK POUR LES ADULTES RÉSUMÉ. Une méthode utilisée de façon intermittente par les peuples mohawks depuis 1985 pour aider à revitaliser et à préserver la langue mohawk réside dans les programmes d'immersion pour les adultes. En 2001, on a mené cette étude dans toute la nation mohawk pour déterminer les facteurs qui contribuent au maintien des étudiants d'âge adulte dans les programmes d'immersion en langue mohawk. Les renseignements recueillis auprès des administrateurs du programme, des chargés de cours, des étudiants et de deux Anciens sont réunis pour donner un aperçu « monovalent » de ce qui donne des résultats et de ce qui n'en donne pas dans les programmes d'immersion en mohawk pour les adultes.
