Internet-Based Resources and Opportunities for Minority and Endangered Languages

Abstract

Online teaching and e-learning are growing trends today. In the past few decades both classrooms and learning in general have become increasingly varied through the use of multimedia, online platforms, apps and websites which offer a broad range of possibilities. The development of several new methods for digitally-based learning also contribute to changing education.

The opportunities the internet provides can be used also for many other kinds of language-supporting activities: websites, blogs and media; chat forums, discussion groups and social media; newsletters and e-mail lists; online meetings, conferences and events; learning and teaching, utilising and creating dictionaries, archives, databases and wikis; reading, writing and publishing; listening and watching as well as creating audio and video materials.

This article introduces different types of presently available internet resources and online possibilities which can be helpful for minority and endangered languages and support their maintenance, survival, transmission and revitalisation. Furthermore, the author argues that everyone can acquire at least some technical skills and adapt Information Communication Technology (ICT) tools to the needs of a community, and that working in a team with a long-term perspective and a good management plan for the project lead to more stable results.
