  3. Purpose of the Research • To investigate the interrelationships and synergies between learning a second language and learning about its culture • Always important, but even more so in this age of globalization

  4. Details of the Project We are focusing on the following languages and cultures: • Blackfoot • Mandarin • French • Spanish

  5. We intend to… • (1) identify if teachers find it important to teach a second language along with its culture • and if so, why they find it important.

  6. We intend to…. • (2) document a range of approaches to teaching a second language and its culture by collecting examples of learning experiences and learning resources that practicing second language educators use.

  7. Interview Topics • Why they believe it is important to learn about a culture and its language together. • What aspects of the language-culture nexus they take up with their students and why they emphasize these. • What pedagogical issues related to teaching cultures in second language classrooms arise for them. • What obstacles to students’ understanding of a second language and culture the teachers regularly encounter, and how they work to overcome them. • What learning experiences, assessments and resources they find to be the most beneficial for their students.
