How would you address resource constraints affecting your language revitalization project timelines?

There are some things to consider when prioritizing tasks such as deadlines, urgency, and focus. A great place to start working on how to delegate which tasks should be completed first is to create a plan with timeline for execution. Arrange tasks in order of importance based off how it will impact the business or the employee if not completed in a timely manner. If you are swamped and need reinforcements, don't hesitate to reach out to others in your department for help or guidance. It's also helpful to block time off on your daily calendar to catch up on pending tasks while also maintaining current tasks at hand. Eliminate distractions by making sacrifices such as turning your cellphone off or closing your door to your office for an hour.

Host community workshops to educate and gather resources. Create a community language archive with oral histories and cultural practices. Use social media to build engagement and share project updates. Appoint community ambassadors to promote and support the project. Develop intergenerational learning programs to connect elders and youth. Recognize and celebrate contributions from community members.

Another data source you can use is the readily-available videos online, and I can confidently say that it is cost-and-time effective as it was the method I used in my MA research. Videos on YouTube were normally naturally-recorded, at least not for research purposes. However, it is compulsory that you have the goals of your research pre-established in order to have a list of criteria ready for you to select your raw data. Do not forget to check if you need any written authorisations from video owners to avoid any potential legal issues.
