Course Title

Haitian Creole for Heritage Speakers

Description

This course is designed for heritage speakers of Haitian Creole who have received little to no prior formal training in the Haitian Creole language. Students will be guided to master the core language skills through the Haitian cultural lens. Focus will be placed on dispelling myths about the Creole language and establishing a formal foundation in the standard Haitian Creole. The Communicative Approach will be employed to develop conversational skills and to explore issues of identity as they relate to the politics and sociolinguistic implications of the Haitian Creole language.CUNY Pathways: Flexible Core-World Cultures & Global Issues
