For the time being I am a bit overwhelmed with projects so I do not see any chance of coming back to uni to pursue a postgraduate degree.
However, in the future I would like to take up on a postgraduate course on Multilingualism and Language Planning because I believe the future of our nation will need people prepared to do research on the topic of how the establishment will allow languages to coexist or will make them extinguish.
Language Planning is a field within Applied Linguistics which intends to stimulate a conscious effort to propel the function, structure, or acquisition of languages or a particular language variety within a speech community and is included in government planning but it is also used in a wide range of non-governmental organisations. The goals are diverse but it concentrates mostly on making planning decisions and possible changes for the benefit of communication.
The course I really like is an integrated programme between The Netherlands and Barcelona in Spain and I’d love to take it there because those are countries where multilingualism is a vivid reality, and the waythings are at the moment we can say that in the future migration and immigration will be situations that will impose new challenges on Chilean society and one of the dimensions for this challenging opportunities to materialize will be Languages and Communication.
I think that it's very important to apply knowledge in the changes of the society such as immigration
ResponderBorrarThank for your entry, really I didn't knew of the language planning until before this day and I think that is a problem or challenge very important.
ResponderBorrarRegards!
