 KiSyGSLq5PHJJYhdlnQ Language: Chinese – MandarinWhile celebrating multicul
 turalism and multilingualism in our universities, we still observe a lack
  of adequate information, training, and resources for teachers and learn
 ers in the heritage speaker subfield. Heritage speakers are individuals wh
 o acquire a language informally through home exposure rather than formal e
 ducation. This panel focuses on Chinese heritage language speakers, explo
 ring milestones, current practices, and future directions in teaching an
 d learning their heritage language.Drawing on the experience developing Mo
 dern Chinese for Heritage Beginners, the panelists will examine the lingu
 istic, cultural, and learning characteristics of heritage learners. They
  will share insights into the challenges encountered during the textbook’s
  development and the strategies used to address them. This session offers 
 valuable perspectives for educators and curriculum developers dedicated to
  supporting heritage language learners in their educational journeys.  \n
