Notes:

1. ‘Approach’ refers to the theoretical interest you hold in your chosen School program.

Thus, ‘identity’ is just one possible approach. Other examples of approach are:

language revival; mother tongue first; heritage language maintenance; language

status; language policy; translanguaging; language competence; domains; language

attitude; language transmission etc

2. Analysis could be of three features/issues (each of 500 words), or of two

features/issues (each of 750 words)

3. Use literature to analyse features/issues (i.e., to highlight issues/concerns; to help

you form judgements/a view point)
