This book, Korean Heritage Language Maintenance, Learning and Development: Australian Practices and Perspectives, examines Australian practices and perspectives of Korean Heritage Language (KHL) on various topics, including research practices, language acquisition and bilingual competence, language shift and maintenance, language use, KHL maintenance, language resources and parental attitudes, needs analysis for KHL learning, ethnic identity and proficiency, KHL learner errors, and bilingual practices in the Korean communities. It provides clues to a better understanding of the Korean community's sociolinguistic profile such as how the language has been maintained and developed and how the cultural identity and attitudes have been formed. With a thoughtful choice of the research topics relating to Korean as a heritage language, as well as appropriate methodological approaches and highly topical and significant results, Korean Heritage Language Maintenance, Learning and Development: Australian Practices and Perspectives is an ideal resource for researchers and postgraduate students working on heritage language learners and learning. This book is also a useful and insightful reference for anyone - education systems, program authorities, schools, teachers, community, parents and students- who is interested in the teaching and learning of Korean as a heritage language.
