What is Ùlpan?
For those who have not heard of it before, Ùlpan is a fast and effective way to learn a language. It has been used to great effect in Israel, where it originated, and in Wales, where Wlpan has brought thousands of adult learners to fluency in Welsh.
Ùlpan will bring several major benefits to Gaelic by
1. setting a standard of excellence for teaching and learning Gaelic
2. providing a fully-researched and tested course that takes learners to fluency
3. offering a system of tutor-training and accreditation to ensure teaching of the highest standard
4. establishing a national framework for learning the language
Many adult learners find that they can read and write Gaelic better than they can speak the language.
With Ùlpan, speaking comes first, and reading and writing follow a little later.
Students learn through repetition of key structures and through language activities, with the emphasis on using the language, rather than on more academic skills like grammar.
Dè th' ann an Ùlpan?
’S e dòigh luath is èifeachdach cànan ionnsachadh a th’ ann an Ùlpan. Tha e air a bhith air leth soirbheachail ann an Israel, far an do thòisich e, agus sa Chuimrigh, far an deach mìltean de dh’inbhich a thoirt gu fileantas sa Chuimris tro Wlpan.
Bheir Ùlpan bhuannachdan cudromach dhan Ghàidhlig le bhith:
1. A’ cur air bhonn inbhe àrd de mhathas a thaobh teagasg is ionnsachadh na Gàidhlig
2. A’ solar cùrsa a thèid a sgrùdadh is a dhearbhadh gus luchd-ionnsachaidh a thoirt do dh’fhileantas
3. A’ tairgse siostam trèanaidh do dh’oidean le teisteanas gus dèanamh cinnteach gum faighear teagasg aig an ìre as àirde
4. A’ stèidheachadh frèam nàiseanta gus an cànan ionnsachadh
Tha e nas fhasa airson a’ mhòr-chuid de luchd-ionnsachaidh Gàidhlig a leughadh is a sgrìobhadh seach a labhairt.
Leis an dòigh Ùlpan, ’s e labhairt an rud as cudromaiche, le leughadh is sgrìobhadh a’ tighinn beagan às dèidh làimhe.
Bidh na h-oileanaich ag ionnsachadh tro ath-aithris abairtean deatamach ’s tro ghnìomhan cànain, ’s ann a bhios an cudrom air Gàidhlig a chur gu feum, seach sgilean nas sgoilearaiche mar ghràmar.
