Advanced Modern Chinese Summary

Advanced Modern Chinese : Learning through Contemporary Film by Yujia Ye

  • This book is one of the few textbooks designed to teach advanced Chinese language and culture through film.
  • Uses ACTFL's theoretical framework to design the book:
  • This book includes 10 recently released films with different genres, such as drama, ethical film, romance film, science fiction film, and animation. The themes of the films cover a wide range of Chinese social and cultural issues, like family values, youth culture, love , Chinese parenting styles, challenges faced by migrant workers, etc. Accordingly, students can learn and experience contemporary Chinese society and culture through watching and discussing these films.
  • Teacher-friendly: a wealth of discussion points, including not only pre-class preparation questions, but also in-depth questions for teachers to conduct in-class discussion. These topics provide teachers with a wealth of ideas for classroom teaching, which greatly reduces the teacher's lesson preparation work.
  • Explores the artistic characteristics of films: For each film, the authors provided commentary on film cinematography covering topics like film type, lens type, sound, editing and light in order to allow students to explore and analyse the artistic characteristics of film more systematically.

Advanced Modern Chinese Reviews

The textbook incorporates the most recent Chinese films (after the 2010s) into the advanced Chinese language teaching and learning, which is innovative and informative. The textbook answers the call of involving more culturally and socially embedded topics into the day-to-day Chinese language teaching and learning practice.
