 'Using real-life examples of practice in classrooms, the authors provided many great ideas and practical strategies to improve students' achievement in Chinese language study.' -Maria Xu, President of the Chinese Language Teachers' Association, Australia. 'This book offers teachers' solutions to all the current challenges in Languages education: continuity from primary to secondary, differentiation, motivation, and building communities which value language study. It is an important new resource for teachers, for supporting both better pedagogy and advocacy.' -Merryl Wahlin, Languages Consultant at the Association of Independent Schools of New South Wales, Australia This book presents the principles of quality teaching in Chinese, as exemplified in case studies of primary and secondary school classrooms. Drawing on data from five Australian schools, the authors identify the key practices necessary to produce a quality learning experience for students. The book offers a thorough grounding in the issues involved in teaching different age groups, and many practical strategies, including a comprehensive overview of digital technologies for teaching and learning Chinese. It will provide a valuable resource for students and scholars of applied linguistics, in addition to supporting teacher training and professional development.
