Abstract | This research project tries to investigate how the integration of culture and language or Cultural Language can enhance the teaching and learning of the Persian language in a Persian Heritage Language school. Furthermore, it aims to investigate the relationship between Persian Heritage Language and its effect on conserving the cultural awareness of the second and third-generation Muslim Persian - British in London. In this project, I attempt to propose a new framework with a ‘cultural syllabus’ to be incorporated into language education to develop, preserve, and revitalize Persian language skills amongst the future Persian generation living abroad. In another word, my research is aiming to link the teaching of cultural matters with the Persian language to impact positively on the children’s general attainment in the Persian language. To do this, I started to conduct a participatory action research project through the lens of ethnography. I employed four main types of research methods and techniques: classroom observations, focus groups, feedback interviews or conversations and reflection sheets. |
