Academic Research
As language revitalization efforts have increased and expanded, so too have studies on the effects of immersion and other revitalization techniques.
These studies can come in handy in multiple ways. To name two: when deciding what type of program would be best fit for our communities and when addressing policy makers who want evidence that these types of programs really do work.
