This book contributes to building the research knowledge that language teaching professionals need in developing curriculum for the large population of East Asian heritage students (including Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) in countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia, where speakers of East Asian languages are among the fastest growing populations. Heritage learners are defined as those who initially acquired certain levels of linguistic and cultural competence in a non-dominant language mainly through interaction with foreign-born parents and other family members at home. Providing theoretical and practical information about heritage-language instruction in terms of curriculum design, learner needs, materials development, and assessment procedures, the goal of this book is not only to promote research about heritage students in East Asian languages but also to improve the teaching of these students in various educational settings and all over the world, especially in English speaking countries. 0 Text Unmediated Volume lcc BK rizal 2015-04-07 23:18:23 rizal 2015-04-07 23:18:23 4522 4504 4504 0 0 ddc 0 0 HED HED HED 2025-12-21 371.97951073 T22b HED3971 2026-06-02 00:00:00 2025-12-21 BK
