Schlagwörter: Minderheitensprache, Mehrsprachigkeit, Citizen Science, Sprachkontakt, Sprachgebrauch, ddc:400
Beschreibung: Research on heritage languages is not only empirically and theoretically relevant: It also touches a nerve with families, minority speech communities and educators, teachers and other agents within the majority language educational and health systems. This contribution presents the rationale of a specific transfer project based on the findings of the Research Unit Emerging Grammars in Language Contact Situations (RUEG) as well as on multilingualism research in general. The need for differentiated outreach activities is highlighted; first steps of implementation in close cooperation with non-academic partners and their target groups are addressed. Target groups include parents with very rudimentary to excellent majority language skills, professionals providing advice to parents or involved in language fostering as well as instructors in qualifying programs for educators and teachers. Initiatives include workshops, video lectures, interviews and other material, eventually all available online via www.ruegram.de as well as suggestions for specific citizen science activities already conducted or under way.
