“写长法”及其在汉语二语写作教学中的应用

On “Length Approach" and its Application in TCSL Writing

本文详细介绍了外语"写长法"的理念和操作要点,并重点探讨了它在汉语二语写作教学中的应用问题。本团队10位教师把"写长法"引入汉语二语写作教学,建设了暨南大学精品课程,编写了"写长法"实验教材,并在留学生本科和非学历学生中进行了6年的实验,取得了显著成效。从问卷调查、学生习作、"听后写"练习、日记、作文考试的长度与质量,以及优秀习作发表的数量、质量等方面看,"写长法"很适合运用于汉语二语写作中级阶段"基础写作"部分的教学。

＂Length Approach＂,a new concept in the theory of foreign language teaching,was first put forward by Wang Chuming in 1999,and it has exerted a significant impact on foreign language teaching in China.This paper makes an overall introduction to this new concept,of its basic principles and key points for implementation in foreign language teaching,and then discusses,in particular,its application to TCSL writing.In the present study,＂Length Approach＂ has been used in Chinese writing teaching by our teaching group of ten.We constructed the model curriculum of Jinan University,and compiled the experimental ＂Length Approach＂ textbook.It has achieved satisfactory results,which was proved by the 6-year experience of applying this concept to teaching writing to overseas undergraduates and non-curricula（non-academic） students.The data from the questionnaire,students＇ compositions,＂write after listening＂ exercise,diary,the length and quality of writhing tests,number and quality of published excellent writings,etc.show that this approach is effective for intermediate-level basic writing.
