Authenticity and Identity: Lessons from Indigenous Language Education
Abstract
This essay introduces this theme issue, which examines how notions of identity and authenticity are defined and negotiated in different contexts of indigenous language education in Alaska, California, Hawai'i, and the Solomon Islands. The introductory article situates these case studies within the larger context of other language/culture‐minority groups who are attempting to maintain or revitalize their heritage languages, language varieties, and cultural practices through educational endeavors.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
