Summary

Research on heritage languages (HL) in the United States consistently demonstrated that they are lost beyond two or three generations, resulting in significant linguistic and cultural losses at the individual, familial, community, and national levels. In an effort to reverse this loss, practitioners and researchers in HL education strive to provide meaningful learning experiences for those language learners who want to reconnect with their linguistic and cultural heritage. This chapter seeks to provide an overview of HL programmatic practices in postsecondary institutions as well as innovative curricular practices emerging from current research in HL education. This chapter’s main contribution is to offer practitioners, researchers, and administrators with a review of state-of-the-art curricular and programmatic options for university-level HL learners, including innovations, achievements, current challenges, and future directions.
