A Transdisciplinary Approach To Chinese And Japanese Language Teaching

A Transdisciplinary Approach to Chinese and Japanese Language Teaching illustrates how the transdisciplinary approach to second language acquisition (SLA) centres around collaboration to provide a learning-conducive environment with rich semiotic resources for second/foreign language learners. The volume consists of fourteen chapters from leading experts in SLA and Chinese and Japanese language educators from Canada, China, Japan, the UK, and the USA. As a first work of its kind, the contributions feature both theoretical interpretations of transdisciplinary concepts that can apply to Chinese/Japanese as a second language learning, and case studies showcasing how college-level Chinese and Japanese language educators design and implement pedagogical projects in collaboration with partner(s) across languages, disciplines, communities, and borders, adopting a transdisciplinary perspective to analyze students' learning outcomes. This text will benefit researchers, administrators, educators, and teacher educators in higher education with an interest in world language education, interdisciplinary and project-based teaching.
