Please register in advance: https://uni-goettingen.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYlcOirrTwvHd2Cw9yScwFKBSvj9vemw7sK Abstract: The so-called “sanjiao 三教 tradition (three teachings/religions)” that includes Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism has conventionally been considered as the “Chinese religion” in Chinese history. In addition to the “sanjiao,” however, Christianity and Islam were introduced to China pretty early and also became integral parts of the Chinese religious tradition. […]

Abstract: One aspect that strikes observers of nineteenth-century China is the apparent lack of panic in the face of foreign aggression among Qing officials.

讲座要点 Key points of the lecture 第一部分为讲座，讨论的主要问题是如何发现和利用对外汉语语言教材中的文化教学资源，认为具有跨文化属性的对外汉语教学必须语言、文化并重。在对外汉语语言教材中，注重从文化产物、文化习俗入手，帮助理解文化观念；应着重选择体现文化规范的、产生积极交际效果的文化教学资源加以利用，并根据学习者的特点，对文化教学资源进行分众化、差异化处理，由浅入深地帮助学习者理解，培养其跨文化同理心，提高其汉语理解和应用能力。 第二部分为学员分组进行案例讨论，展示讨论结果，并由主讲人点评。 第三部分为答疑时间。 The first part of the teacher training is designed as a lecture with focus on the discussion of how to discover and use cultural teaching resources in teaching material for Chinese as a foreign language, based on the belief that an intercultural teaching approach of Chinese […]

讲座要点 汉字“笔”是“竹管下有毛”，单词pen则来自feather这样的鹅毛管儿；汉字“著”提示中国人曾经把字写在“草”上，单词paper则直接来自于莎草papyrus，汉字“书契”记录的是“刻”，单词write词源义也是“刻”……看来人类的书写符号系统有着很多一致性的东西。如果把这些一致性的内容揭示好，解释好，应该能够让汉语第二语言学习者进一步增强汉字自我学习和习得的能力。 本次讲座以对比语义学的视角，阐释在印欧语环境下进行汉字教学的一些基本思路，通过具体例证，沟通人类文字符号之间的共通性理据，展示如何有效提升学生兴趣，增强学习动机，进而增强学习效果。 Key points of the lecture The Chinese character 笔 bǐ means „there are hairs under the bamboo tube”, whilst the English word “pen“ derives from the Latin word for “feather“; the character “著“ zhù suggests that the Chinese used to write down characters on “grass“, whilst the English word “paper“ derives directly […]

摘要： 汉语作为第二语言（外语）的语法习得研究近二三十年来取得不少的研究成果，这一方面表现在研究的问题不断深入具体，另一方面也表现在语法习得研究的理论视野在不断拓宽。近年来，随着构式语法、语言类型学等相关理论和方法的发展，汉语语法习得的研究正在走上一个新的台阶。过去的中介语偏误分析、习得顺序和习得步骤的描写与解释可以结合构式语法的相关理论和汉语构式研究的有关成果，通过对中介语语法项目中形式与意义的配对分析，更好地发现、描写和解释汉语语法的习得规律和进程，并将其运用到汉语第二语言教学中，从而提高教学效率。 Abstract: The study of grammar acquisition of Chinese as a second /foreign language has achieved a lot of research results in the past decades, which is not only reflected by the further progression of research, but also by the constant expanding of research on theoretical perspectives of grammar acquisition.
