| Summary: | Teaching Romanian language to Hungarian ethnic minority
students in Romania has been a matter of debate for a long time Some
teachers and experts suggest that Romanian textbooks are inadequate and
fail to meet the needs of minority students, while others argue that they are
sufficient and serve the purpose of teaching the Romanian language to nonnative speakers An appropriate choice of texts can support the development
of language skills and cultural understanding, while inappropriate choices
can hinder them In this study, we propose to investigate the texts in a
Romanian language textbook written and approved for 7th-grade Hungarian
minority students regarding the adequacy of topics and vocabulary in
comparison with text choices in a textbook designed for teaching Romanian
as a foreign language We propose to analyse and compare the texts from
the following viewpoints: use of literary and non-literary texts; adequacy
of the vocabulary and text adaptation; relevance and adequacy of topics;
appropriacy of texts and activities. |
