2.3 Rationale
Language is the basis of all communication and human interaction. By learning asecond or subsequent language, students develop knowledge, understanding andskills for successful participation in the dynamic world of the 21st century.Communicating in another language expands students’ horizons as both nationaland global citizens.Language and culture are interdependent. The study of another language develops
in students the ability to move successfully across and within cultures, and, in the
process, to experience, value and embrace the diversity of humanity.Contemporary research has shown that learning a language facilitates cognitive andintellectual development beyond the language classroom. It enhances creativity and
develops more refined and sophisticated skills in analysis, negotiation and problemsolving.Literacy skills are enhanced through the study of another language. As the use oflanguage is a process of communication, students’ learning experiences offer
opportunities to consolidate and extend their interpersonal skills. By engaging withvarious modes of communication, students develop effectiveskills in interacting, andunderstanding and producing texts.
Students who learn another language understand how languages work as systems.They become aware of the structure of that language through the analysis ofpatterns and can apply this knowledge to the learning of other languages. By making
http://www.1daixie.com/liuxueshengzuoye/comparisons between and among languages, students strengthen their command oftheir first language.
Chinese is the language of communication of approximately one quarter of theworld’s population. It is one of the official languages of the United Nations. Amongstthe many spoken varieties of the language, Mandarin/Putonghua, or ModernStandard Chinese, is pre-eminent. Chinese is recognised as one of the fastestgrowing languages in New South Wales and has one of the largest groups of non-
English background speakers in Australia.
China has a significant profile in economic, political and cultural developments, bothglobally and, in particular, in the Asia-Pacific region. Australia has a strongconnection through trade, political and cultural contacts with both the People’s
Republic of China and other nations where Chinese communities are important
contributors to their growth and diversity.
The ability to communicate in Chinese contributes significantly to the socioculturaland economic understanding between Australia and Chinese-speaking countries andenables students to gain insights into the contributions that have been made by
Chinese-speaking communities to Australian, and indeed to global, society.
The study of Chinese provides students with opportunities for continued learning andfor future employment and experience, both domestically and internationally, inareas such as public relations, commerce, hospitality, education, marketing,international relations, media and tourism.Chinese Beginners Stage 6 Syllabus8
