如何改善学生在句子中的声调产出
我们试图从语音研究-语音习得-语音教学三者的关系出发,探讨中高级阶段学生在句子层面的声调产出问题。我们一方面讨论句子中影响声调的诸多语音、语义和句法条件,另一方面反思声调教学中有效的练习方式,除了在交流中及时改错、提供反馈以外,是否还有其他的练习方式?通过声调教学的实践和实验,以及对学生调查结果的分析,我们希望跟各位同道一起交流、分享如何改善学生在句子中的声调产出,尤其是在轻声、重音、以及语调方面的一些思考。

韵律语体语法与汉语二语教学——以汉语单双音节对应词为例
本讲以《汉语八百对单双音节对应词词典》中的单双词为例,讨论近年发展的韵律语体语法如何服务汉语二语教学的问题。文章首先介绍韵律语体语法基本原理和系统,然后讨论单双音节的韵律属性、语体属性、语法对立,以及以韵律语体为手段的二语教学。文章指出:单双词是汉语韵律语体语法系统的产物,而它们在语义、词法、句法、语用和韵律等诸多方面的对立,都是语距定律下体原子在语言各个部门的作用和表现,因此单双词现象是汉语韵律语体语法机制派生的自然结果。据此,文章进而探讨“韵律语体教学法”的教学策略与操作方法。最后指出:以交际语距和形式-功能对生律为基础的语体语法可以为笔者(1998)提出的“三一语法”提供一个语言学上的理论根据。

翻转课堂在对越汉语言文化知识教学中的运用
“翻转课堂”(Flipped Classroom)是指重新调整课堂内外的时间与活动的教学模式。它将学习新知识的部分转移至课前完成。在课前,学生可以通过观看视频讲座、听播客、阅读电子书或在网络上与别的同学进行线上讨论等方式掌握课程的基本内容。教师不再占用课堂的宝贵时间来讲授信息,而主要围绕学生提前预习完成的新知识进行讨论,并在此基础上加以提升,与学生共同研究、解决实践问题,从而让学生获得更深次的理解。在课后,学生可以以利于自己记忆的形式对所学的内容进行概括与总结。在这种教学模式下,学习的决定权从教师转移给学生,这便于学生自主、灵活地规划学习计划、节奏、风格和呈现知识的方式。教师则负责引导、协助学生,从而促成学生的个性化学习。翻转课堂的最终目标是让学生通过实践获得更真实的学习。 信息技术与互联网技术的发展,为翻转课堂教学模式提供了较为广泛的应用空间,该教学模式如何运用于国际汉语教学过程等问题愈发引起汉学界的重视与关注。越南汉语教学历史悠久,教学经验相当丰富,教学模式也较为灵活,虽然在基础设施、网络汉语资源等方面存在一定的局限,但“翻转课堂”的教学模式仍然被运用到一些汉语言文化知识课程中,并取得了一定的教学效果。本研究以河内国家大学下属外国语大学中国语言文化系现代汉语和跨文化交际等课程为例,在全面分析越南汉语专业教学现状基础上,从学生背景与课程、翻转课堂教学模式选择、教师对学生课前的学习要求与引导、课内的学习与讨论活动、课后学生作业以及教学效果等维度展开分析,进而深入研究越南汉语教学翻转课堂教学的实施、教学有效性及翻转课堂的可持续性等问题,旨在为信息化时代提升对越汉语教学效果、提高汉语学习者的汉语综合运用能力、创新第二语言教学的新模式、新思路、新方法提供参考与借鉴。

法国汉语教学相关硕士专业现状——以阿尔多瓦大学汉语教学硕士专业为例
法国汉语教学历史悠久,规模在西方国家中也是屈指可数的。汉语在法国中学阶段的教学始于1958年,1968年汉语就被纳入高中毕业会考。目前法国所有学区的中学都开设了正规的汉语课程,对有资质的汉语教师的需求也不断增加。法国教育部1966年设立中学汉语教师资格考试,考生需持有硕士文凭。法国高等教育设立与汉语教学相关的硕士专业,以培养既有教学能力又有研究能力的高质量汉语教师,缓解紧张的师资需要,并促进汉语作为第二语言教学的学科建设。本文旨在以阿尔多瓦大学对外汉语教学硕士专业为例,梳理法国目前汉语教学相关硕士专业的概况与特点。

Intercultural Communicative Competence Training for Chinese Learners: A Language Flagship Model
Intercultural communicative competence (ICC) plays a very important role in language learners’ growth and success, especially during study abroad. The Chinese Flagship Culture Initiative (CFCI) provides tools for students to independently develop their sociopragmatic and pragmalinguistic competences through an extensive repository of scenario-based modules. This panel discusses the analysis of student needs based on study abroad experiences, shares the materials developed by the project, and showcases podcasts created by students reflecting on their encounters with native speakers of Chinese.

Character difficulty and word difficulty: Which matters more in L2 Chinese reading and listening?
This study explores how character difficult and word difficulty affect L2 Chinese reading and listening. Results show that in both reading and listening tests, word difficulty had greater predictive power than character difficulty in terms of learners’ accuracy. However, while word difficulty had greater predictive impact on learners’ listening accuracy than character difficulty, it had less impact on learners’ listening fluency.

汉语教学中形式和内容的协调与统一
涉及语言教学的“形式”一词含义甚广,从词语搭配、语法结构到语段组织、语篇 章法乃至教材编写、课堂实施和课程设置都能抽象并提炼出某种“形式”,这常常是开展教学活动的抓手。形式问题处理得当,教学才能有迹可循,有法可依,从个体经验上升为有普遍意义的原则。然而,长久以来,对重“形式”的教学法有一种批评,认为对“形式”问题的过分关注会导致语言学习背离交流的本质,让课堂变得机械、死板、无趣。针对这种批评,本组的三个报告人将从对多种“形式”的重新梳理出发,结合各自的教学经验,谈谈怎么以“形式”为依托,把课上得既扎实又生动,既强调语言的准确性又不忽视学生的主动性。

This paper explores two sets criteria used to construct pedagogical grammar both in English and Chinese. After a comparative analysis of Diane Larsen-Freeman’s grammar framework and the Trinitarian Grammar which was proposed by Feng Shengli and Shi Chunhong, this paper suggests a four-dimensional framework for Chinese pedagogical grammar: grammatical structure, meaning (lexical and grammatical), pragmatic functions and sequence of typical contexts starting with an “optimal understanding model”.

花甲一轮,恭喜北美中文教师学会成立60周年。 59年前的1963年也正好是我在哈佛大学选修一年级中文课程的时刻。班上有12个同学,不分大小班,录音带是那种大卷老式的。没有卡式录音带,没有录像带,更没有电脑。条件与今日天差地别! 但是相对于学生更多,科技更发达的变化,今天最重要的是教学效果的进步。西洋的传统“汉学”注重阅读和翻译,分析问题都是用英文,法文或德文进行的。60 年以后,说听读写并重,目标是希望学生把中文当作自己的,把它“内在化”,用中文做事情,交朋友,喜怒哀乐,甚至做梦。英文免不了还是母语,但中文变成“继母语”,在脑子里种下自己的根。将来呢?我们没有水晶球,但希望这个良好趋势继续发展。今日比以前好多了,但并不完善,还有发展的余地。
