Tchng Chinese as For Lang
PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICES OF TEACHING CHINESE AS A SECOND LANGUAGE (TCFL)
Students will investigate how theory and research relate to local decisions on organizing and planning for instruction in a CFL program. Through lectures, discussions and, most importantly, hands-on experience, students will learn to: understand what it means for CFL learners to develop their communicative competence; identify critical issues in CFL pedagogy; and develop the ability to plan and implement pedagogically sound and effective classroom activities. Unlike a conventional graduate course of lecture/discussion on theoretical and practical issues, this course creates a learning-by-doing environment where students are active participants in the teaching and learning.
