A Conceptual Framework for Developing e-Learning Materials from Endangered Language Documentation

چکیده
Preservation of an endangered language is an important and difficult task. The preservation project is proposed to include documentation, archiving and development of shared resources for the endangered language, with an underlying goal of language revitalization among the younger generation. In this paper, we propose a framework that connects three different tasks related to language documentation: language archiving, language processing and creating e-learning materials. We are using this framework to document and produce e-learning materials for the Taiwanese aboriginal language Yami. The proposed framework has the potential to become an effective tool for documenting and developing e-learning programs for other endangered languages in Asia.

An Integrated Framework for Archiving, Processing and Developing Learning Materials for an Endangered Aboriginal Language in Taiwan
Preservation of an endangered language is an important and difficult task. The preservation project should include documentation, archiving and development of shared resources for the endangered language. In addition, the project will consider how to revitalize this endangered language among the younger generation. In this paper, we propose an integrated framework that will connect the three di...
متن کاملTowards a Common Conceptual Framework of Language Documentation
Language represents shared conventionalization of concepts by all speakers. Hence language documentation preserves information far beyond a collection of sound shapes, lexical forms, and grammatical structures. The preservation of linguistically conventionalized conceptual structure is even more crucial for endangered language since this information is very often not available elsewhere. Howeve...
متن کاملKey Factors for Defining the Conceptual Framework for Quality Assurance in E-Learning
E-learning has evolved for more than a decade, and universities are gradually embracing e-learning to provide more learning experience for their learners. E-learning is the use of electronic means through which training is received and obtained. E-learning offers a wide range of advantages (time and room mobility, cost-effectiveness, etc.) and also overcomes the limitations of digital learning ...
متن کاملInterfirm Alliance Interactions and knowledge Learning: A Conceptual Research Model
Alliance raises many knowledge transfer and interfirm learning issues that have implications for how the alliance partners manage their cooperative learning activities in the alliance system. Many of these implications are grounded in the assumption that partners in the alliances have routines for transferring knowledge, learning, gaining management efficiencies. Thus organisations can support ...
متن کاملTowards portability and interoperability for linguistic annotation and language-specific ontologies
The central task in constructing a general linguistic ontology is mapping the phenomena of a given language to the concepts in the ontology, and extending the ontology where no viable mapping exists. Mapping well-known independent features is fairly straightforward, but mapping a new feature or language-specific ontology to a general model is a complicated problem. This is especially true when ...
