S.H.A.L.L.
(Studies of Heritage and Academic Languages and Literacies)


Ilokano and Samoan are offered through SHALL
(Studies of Heritage and Academic Languages and Literacies).

The SHALL project integrates courses in heritage languages, English literacy and computer technology. Ilokano and Samoan language courses offer students the opportunity to develop complex and high-level language skills in their heritage languages.

English and study skills courses allow for life long learning of English speaking, reading, writing, and computer technology skills through training students in analyzing the purposes and uses of language.

These courses aim to enhance students’ self-esteem by changing the common view that heritage languages and cultures are problems to an orientation in which home languages and cultures are valued as resources of great academic and social value.

Developed in conjunction with (CSLR) Center For Second Language Research at UH Manoa.
