The Dissemination of Ich in International Chinese Language Education
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: In recent years, innovative explorations have been made in integrating Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) into International Chinese Language Education (ICLE), yet their implementation remains insufficient in scope and depth. Grounded in the philosophical tenets of Chinese ICH and contextualized within China's cultural diplomacy frameworks, it is imperative to systematically incorporate ICH elements into international student curricula at tertiary institutions. This study advocates for the infusion of ICH into ICLE program design, pedagogical content, and instructional material development. By investigating effective pathways for ICH preservation and intercultural dissemination, this approach enhances disciplinary substance in ICLE while simultaneously advancing the global transmission of traditional Chinese cultural paradigms. Strategic curricular innovations in these domains are posited to catalyze dual outcomes: safeguarding living heritage traditions and optimizing the cross-cultural efficacy of Chinese language pedagogy.
