Welcome to the ATJ Japanese Heritage Language Special Interest Group (JHL SIG) page
The JHL SIG was established to provide a home base for collecting and disseminating research findings in the field, and promoting JHL education. It also aims to provide a forum for discussing JHL issues. We publish research papers and reports on curriculum and instructional materials through our on-line journal, post conference paper abstracts on the SIG web site, and host a mailing list for information exchange and discussion on JHL issues. We usually have business meetings at the ATJ Seminar/AAS annual meeting and the ACTFL annual convention. All ATJ members who are interested in JHL education and research are welcome.
