来华留学生“中国概况”必修课的开设情况、存在问题与对策建议——基于2021年“中国国情与文化教学专题研讨会”的省思

“中国概况”作为高校来华留学生的必修课,受到国家的重视。然而,作为一门文化课程,其课程面临着不少问题。因此,本文基于“中国概况”课程的现状与问题,提出了课程建议。本文认为,“中国概况”课程需要引入统一的官方话语,宏观层面的文化规模,教材的出版要与优秀的商用出版读物相结合,避免重复的出版投入与资源浪费。另外,在具体的知识教授过程中可以和国外教科书中的中国知识相结合,从而构建适合全球人士理解的文化知识。此外,本文对任课教师也提出更高的要求,作为涉外人员,教师应具备以跨文化能力为主的,作为外交人员的基本素养。在具体教学过程中,本文认为需要激发学生的兴趣,而不是通过文化主题去激发国家间的文化矛盾。因此,通过对课程的思考,本文认为“中国概况”课程最终应将来华留学生从中国故事的“倾听者”,转化为中国故事的“讲述者”。
