Produktbeschreibung
The general attitude towards indigenous Nigerian languages has often been that of disdain and negligence, especially in the domain of education. Igbo, one of the major Nigerian languages seems to be the most affected among its counterpart- Hausa and Yoruba. Language attitude researches have been carried out in this regard, but the focus has predominantly been on students in Institutions of Higher Learning. This book therefore deals with the study of language attitude of High School students with a view to tackling the attitudinal problem early among the younger generation. This book provides useful information to language planners, practitioners in education and other government agencies that will assist in developing a comprehensive language policy for Nigeria. It also suggests means by which the implementation of this policy can be actualised, thus achieving national unity and integration through effective teaching and learning of the indigenous languages. In addition, this book will aid linguists towards developing strategies that will facilitate 'self discovery and pride' among indigenous language speakers.
