Fostering Linguistic Equality: The SISE Approach to the Introductory Linguistics Course by Sarah E. HerculaEnglish | PDF,EPUB | 2020 | 241 Pages | ISBN : 3030416895 | 3 MB
“The author’s call to action- that it is incumbent on linguists to work towards societal change- is one we should heed. Hercula encourages linguists to refocus the introductory linguistics course to not only educate about how language works and how linguists study it, but to work more deeply to change attitudes towards stigmatized language varieties by in-depth investigation of those varieties, ensuring that everyone goes away with enduring understanding and a desire to change the world.” –Kristin Denham, Western Washington University, USA
