| description | Teaching vocabulary in the CSL (Chinese as Second Language) classroom is a challenge that
many teachers face and traditional grammar-translation methods seem not to be very effective in
CSL vocabulary teaching. This study seeks to explore new methods which are different from
grammar-translation methods in vocabulary teaching in the CSL classroom in order to change
the situation from passive learning into active learning and from teacher-centered classes into
student-centered ones. Various new methods such as synonym/antonym seeking, teaching
through other semantic relations, teaching through analogy, teaching through brainstorming and
associations, teaching through elicitation, and teaching through analyzing compounds are
introduced in this study to provide students opportunities to learn language through using
language and to make CSL vocabulary teaching more effective. |
