Language Elective

Catalog description

Since many tribal languages are struggling to survive, an open door exists within many tribes for the teaching of the language to its people. This course is designed to be a practical, hands-on approach for the student to learn the language of their own people, and for continued language study. The student will begin the development of the basic skills required for communicative competence in their language: reading, writing, listening, and speaking. A combination of linguistics study and skills-building will form the foundation of this class.
