Thesis (D.A.)--State University of New York at Stony Brook, 2005.

This dissertation focuses on linguistic and methodological aspects of accommodating heritage speakers in Russian language courses at the university level. First, it describes the current situation regarding heritage learner enrollment in Russian courses in some universities across the United States. There is a discussion of Russian heritage learner enrollments in Russian language classes, the availability of special sections for heritage learners at Russian programs, instructional materials used, and the placement strategies employed. Motivations of Russian heritage learners are identified in the context of an 'integrative orientation' and an 'instrumental orientation', and they are compared to motivations of non-heritage learners of Russian. As heritage learners indicate a preference for developing written skills, Chapter 2 focuses on syntactic errors demonstrated in the written work of heritage learners of Russian enrolled in intermediate and advanced Russian language classes. A distinction is drawn between systematic syntactic errors that are unambiguously mistakes and some cases of what are contextually inappropriate constructions. It is then suggested that areas of errors such as Theme-Rheme structure, genitive constructions, placement of adverbials, and some others have to be directly addressed in the teaching of Russian heritage learners. In order to assess resources for addressing these needs, some of the most commonly used textbooks for advanced Russian courses and for specialized heritage courses are evaluated from the perspective of their suitability for use in a classroom with heritage learners or with a mix of heritage and non-heritage learners of Russian. Chapter 4 categorizes different types of heritage learner written errors according to their source and offers teaching strategies for dealing with these errors. The findings of the previous chapters are brought together to create two sample instructional units: one for the intermediate and one for the advanced level, both suitable for classrooms with mixed levels of proficiency. The conclusion reiterates the necessity to actively accommodate heritage speakers in Russian language courses and suggests ways to create a curriculum that would be suitable for use in a heritage learner classroom with students of various proficiency levels, combining teaching reading and writing literacy with individualized tasks that specifically address students' motivational goals.
