Gelsomini, Federico; Kanev, Kamen; Barneva, Reneta P.; Walters, Lisa – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 2020
Memorization is essential when new knowledge is based on association with existing knowledge. It is key in acquiring logographic languages, such as Chinese and Japanese. Such languages present challenges to students possessed of alphabet-based mother tongues. To meet these challenges, we discuss a technology-enhanced learning method to address the…

Yang, Yang; Leung, Howard; Shum, Hubert P. H.; Li, Jiao; Zeng, Lanling; Aslam, Nauman; Pan, Zhigeng – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2018
In this paper, a Chinese character educational system based on Kinect is proposed for guiding beginners to learn the basics of Chinese characters in a more intuitive way. It extracts 19 common components, denoted as alphabets, from Chinese characters. Nineteen postures were designed according to the shapes of these alphabets. Instead of memorizing…

Zhang, Qi; Lu, Zhouxiang – Language Learning in Higher Education, 2014
The current study investigates the applications of the pinyin input system, a Chinese word processing method, for writing on Facebook in order to help CFL (Chinese as a foreign language) learners from two Irish universities to improve their handwriting in Chinese characters on paper. The data were collected from writing activities conducted over…

Winke, Paula; Goertler, Senta; Amuzie, Grace L. – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2010
In this study, we present the analyses stemming from a survey administered to 2149 foreign language learners at Michigan State University. We had three goals. First, we aimed to compile a profile of language learners' technological acumen, access to and ownership of technology, and the current uses of technology across a wide range of languages…

Brabham, Edna G.; Murray, Bruce A.; Bowden, Shelly Hudson – Journal of Research in Childhood Education, 2006
This study compared literacy learning for kindergartners as 12 teachers read 10 popular alphabet books aloud, emphasizing meanings or phonemes, and used centers for independent practice with an alphabet book on audiotape or CD-ROM over a period of four weeks. Researchers taught half the teachers to read the books with an emphasis on phonemes…

Cheng, Chin-Chaun; Sherwood, Bruce – Studies in Language Learning, 1981
Computer assisted instruction in Chinese is considered in relation to the design and recognition of Chinese characters, speech synthesis of the standard Chinese language, and the identification of Chinese tone. The PLATO work has shifted its orientation from provision of supplementary courseware to implementation of independent lessons and…
