Teaching AAL
A resource for educators of all backgrounds interested in teaching about African American Language(s) and Culture
The study of African American Language and Culture has played a pivotal role in the development of education research, sociolinguistics, and other disciplines. It is imperative that this dynamic and ever-growing body of research be shared with the next generation--particularly with the next generation of educators and linguists, who can help shape the language knowledge and language ideologies of students from kindergarten through graduate school. We created this website as a compilation of pedagogical resources and research findings from several ongoing and past research projects focused on the teaching of African American Language(s) at the postsecondary level.
