Beskrivning
This book calls for a change in the way interculturality is introduced in Chinese language education, while the demand for Chinese language teaching increases around the world. The concept of culture – as in the phrase ‘Chinese culture’ – has often been one of the main emphases of Chinese language education, providing students with facts about China and ‘recipes’ on how to meet Chinese people and how to behave like them. However, Chinese culture, like all cultures, does not constitute a closed system, but is constantly evolving and exchanging with other cultures.This unique volume comprises studies from around the world that promote intercultural awareness, dialogue, and encounters in Chinese language education. Written in a clear and readable style, this book will appeal to a diverse readership, from practising and training teachers of Chinese, to researchers interested in language and intercultural education.

Recensioner i media

“ICLE is an inspiring and mind-opening read for those who are interested in the complex and evolving field of Chinese language education. It definitely provides insights for Chinese language teachers on the cultural identities and intercultural awareness of their students and themselves with the ultimate goal of developing a more efficient cultural-related pedagogy.” (Ziyi Geng, Chinese as a Second Language, Vol. 53 (1), 2018)
