Multimedia : A community-oriented information and communication technology

Abstract

The authors emphasize the importance of turning field research results into products which immediately support communities speaking endangered languages in their efforts to maintain their linguistic and cultural heritage. This approach is called here ‘fieldwork delivered to a language community’. It is a crucial complement to the other four frameworks in which fieldwork is carried out, i.e. on community languages, for communities, with communities and by communities (Grinevald 2003). Examples are described of three different genres of information and communication technology products for community language heritage and language learning designed by the authors together with endangered languages communities and delivered to them. A diversity of genres and products are needed to provide the communities with sufficient linguistic support.
