Written for high school and college students, Education and Language Restoration traces the history of Native American education from Indian boarding schools to the present-day and gives information on Indigenous language revitalization. Chapters discuss assimilation and the Native American, community-controlled schools and tribal colleges, Native American identity, language and culture revitalization, language policies and education goals, language teaching, language and reading, and teaching and learning styles. The book contains black and white photographs, sidebars, a chronology, bibliography, a list of further reading materials, Web sites, and source notes. Education and Language Restoration is part of a new "Contemporary Native American Issuesâ€ù series that includes books on economic issues and development, media images and representations, political issues, sacred sites and repatriation, and social life and issues.
