Here is an article that appeared in the March 30, 2015 edition of the New Yorker magazine about language loss and language endangerment. It also has a reference to the doctoral program at UH-Hilo that focuses on language revitalization.

Students from the Semester at Sea visited us recently and here is a link to a video of the activity we all engaged in. The Hawaiian speaking students had to pretend that they did not any English and the non-Hawaiian speaking students had to attempt to find out how to say certain words in Hawaiian. It was meant to mimic the communication between the first Europeans to visit Hawaiʻi and try to speak with the Hawaiian natives. http://www.semesteratsea.org/2015/01/22/exploring-endangered-languages-in-hawaii/
