  • Teaching Chinese as a Second Language in Chinese-Speaking Areas versus Overseas: A Dialogue between Hong Kong and Vietnam
    Project Leader - Dr ZHANG Ling
Teaching Chinese as a Second Language in Chinese-Speaking Areas versus Overseas: A Dialogue between Hong Kong and Vietnam

Teaching Chinese as a second language (TCSL) has been prosperous in recent years and is conducted simultaneously both in Chinese-speaking areas (including Chinese Mainland, Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, and Macau, China) and overseas. Foreign learners may come to Chinese-speaking areas or just stay at their home countries to study Chinese language. The different geographical and language environments of these two types of L2 learners require different pedagogical adaptations, including different learning and teaching strategies. This project aimed to call for a dialogue between these two sides, with Hong Kong as a representative of Chinese-speaking areas and Vietnam as a representative of overseas countries. An online workshop entitled “Chinese characters teaching and learning of CSL workshop 漢語作為第二語言的漢字教學工作坊”was successfully organized in this project.
