Course Syllabus
Abstract
This 2-year course is created for students with no prior experience in the language. We will start the course by introducing pronunciation, reading, typing, and writing. Great emphasis will be placed upon standard pronunciation, listening comprehension, and everyday “survival” language. Through a wide range of learning activities such as daily dictation, oral and written tests, recalling of conversation, story-telling, dialogue construction, presentations, the course focuses students towards improving their pronunciation and tones; learning new grammar patterns; and applying the grammar and vocabulary learned. Various supplementary listening materials will be used from the beginning of this course to give students an authentic, practical way to learn correct pronunciation and reinforce class lessons. Additionally, the course will integrate Chinese culture into language learning to enhance the understanding of cultural influence on the language. The course aims at providing well-balanced development of the four language skills—reading, writing, speaking, and listening in the Chinese language, while also providing students with a deeper understanding of China and its culture
