This book was released on 2024-08-15 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transforming Hanzi Pedagogy in the Digital Age 电写时代的汉字教学 brings together expert researchers and practitioners to offer a coherent theoretical, empirical, pedagogical, and experiential justification for a shift in pedagogical focus from handwriting to e-writing in L2 Chinese pedagogy. This volume argues for a pedagogy based on the 21st century communicative needs of L2 Chinese users, grounded in empirical research as well as practical and lived experiences. The authors propose an “e-writing as primary” (电写为主,手写为辅) framework for L2 Chinese instruction in the 21st century, a transformational proposal which will fundamentally shift the pedagogical focus of L2 Chinese instruction globally towards more learner-centered, research-informed practice. This volume includes three theoretical foundation chapters, four empirical studies, three descriptions of program-level implementation, and ten expert L2 Chinese user vignettes, which, taken together, offer a thorough introduction to e-writing for the future of L2 Chinese teaching and learning. This book will be informative for Chinese language instructors, researchers, program directors, materials developers, and advanced graduate students in both CFL and CSL contexts worldwide.

Download or read book The Digital Age and Its Discontents written by Matteo Stocchetti and published by Helsinki University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-11 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three decades into the ‘digital age’, the promises of emancipation of the digital ‘revolution’ in education are still unfulfilled. Furthermore, digitalization seems to generate new and unexpected challenges – for example, the unwarranted influence of digital monopolies, the radicalization of political communication, and the facilitation of mass surveillance, to name a few. This volume is a study of the downsides of digitalization and the re-organization of the social world that seems to be associated with it. In a critical perspective, technological development is not a natural but a social process: not autonomous from but very much dependent upon the interplay of forces and institutions in society. While influential forces seek to establish the idea that the practices of formal education should conform to technological change, here we support the view that education can challenge the capitalist appropriation of digital technology and, therefore, the nature and direction of change associated with it. This volume offers its readers intellectual prerequisites for critical engagement. It addresses themes such as Facebook’s response to its democratic discontents, the pedagogical implications of algorithmic knowledge and quantified self, as well as the impact of digitalization on academic profession. Finally, the book offers some elements to develop a vision of the role of education: what should be done in education to address the concerns that new communication technologies seem to pose more risks than opportunities for freedom and democracy.
