Abstract

This project is about bringing language back in to the home. Through intensive research on language learning, this project explores the idea of incorporating language immersion techniques within a group setting. In my research, I chose to do family immersion, with an emphasis on the term ‘family’ as inclusive of all who are close members of my family. The focus for this project was on change (language learning) within a given setting (home). My goal for this project was to increase my speaking ability to include full sentences and phrases that I could use on a daily basis with family and friends, all those who cross my path on a regular basis. For the purposes of this project, I chose to host a series of eight Family Immersion Plan (FIP) sessions.
