In this workshop, Dr. Meng Yeh from Rice University aims to answer the following questions based on empirical research results and demonstrates effective strategies for character teaching: How do students learn characters? What are the best practices to teach characters? Should characters be taught from the very beginning? What kind of exercises will help the student’s character acquisition? How many characters should be taught and how many characters can students actually retain? Is stroke order important? What is the role of pinyin? How can character acquisition be incorporated in a standards-based unit? Confucius Institute in Chicago invites you to join us for the workshop.
