Intervention

 26th March – 25th April 2019  “8 basic strokes” introduced via an interlude during 3 continuous lessons and with colloquial names  Repeat with body gestures > Handwrite down with the names in pinyin  Character Analysis Sheet during the Easter holidays and right before the post-test

SLIDE 2

Data

 Participants: 27 students (10 male; 17 female) on Year 7 MEP –

fficially learning Chinese since January 2019

 Pre-test (Tuesday 26th March) & Post-test (Thursday 25th April) 

1. Recognition of the spoken form



2. Recognition of the written form / production of spoken form



3. Production of written form

 At the end of lessons: Writing previously learnt words with the correct stroke order > Learning new words through questioning/guessing > Pronunciation practice > Listen and understand key words > Analyse new/key characters into components  Pre-test: 红色的、黄色的、绿色的、黑色的、白色的  Post-test: 吃猪肉、吃鸡肉、吃牛肉、吃羊肉、吃鸭肉  Two set of 22 valid samples (EAL factor controlled)

SLIDE 3

Findings

 Recognition of the written form as controlled factor  Evaluation criteria for production of the written form: O: Errors that do not hinder clarity > Minor errors in characters such as a misformed stroke in a character, or errors of proportion/balance/alignment between the radicals within a character Z: Errors that hinder clarity without preventing meaning being conveyed > errors in forming a character such as characters with an extra or missing stroke (Cf. Mark Scheme for Foundation Writng Paper Question 1, New Edexcel GCSE)
