The North Carolina State University will produce a one-hour film documentary on language diversity in North Carolina for public television and for distribution to public agencies throughout the state. The documentary and associated activities will illustrate the socio-cultural and socio-linguistic heritage of language variation; exemplify the systematic language patterns associated with different regional and ethnic groups and demonstrate the role of language in the construction of cultural identity. In addition to the documentary for public broadcast, footage for particular regional varieties and socio-cultural groups will be compiled into pedagogically useful 20-30 minute vignettes. A workbook for using the materials will also be prepared. In terms of its larger significance and broader impacts, this project addresses a need for informal education about language variation to counter public misunderstandings and stereotypes leading to discrimination based on language differences.

北卡罗莱纳州立大学将为公共电视台制作一部一小时的关于北卡罗莱纳州语言多样性的纪录片，并向全州的公共机构发行。纪录片和相关活动将说明语言变异的社会文化和社会语言遗产；举例说明与不同地域和民族群体相关的系统语言模式，并论证语言在文化认同建构中的作用。除了公开播放的记录片外，为特定区域品种和社会文化群体拍摄的片段将被汇编成20-30分钟的教学短片。还将准备使用这些材料的练习册。就其更大的意义和更广泛的影响而言，该项目解决了关于语言变化的非正式教育的需求，以消除公众误解和刻板印象，从而导致基于语言差异的歧视。
