The Teaching Concept of “Chinese as a Foreign Language + Career” based on the POA Teaching System

Abstract

The Production-Oriented Approach (POA) to teaching Chinese as a foreign language in integrated courses focuses on language teaching around the language output, solving the problem of “separation of learning and use” in second language teaching; it is teacher-led and student-centered, allowing students to fully participate in teaching, cooperate with teaching, and gain something in the classroom. Teacher-led and student-centered, students can fully participate in teaching, cooperate with teaching, and gain something in class, as well as “evaluate” the effect and quality of teaching orally or in writing. The purpose is to overcome the Chinese foreign language teaching in the “learning and use of the separation” of the shortcomings, emphasizing the use of learning, using learning, learning while using, learning while using. At present, most of the research based on POA teaching method focuses on the field of grammar teaching, and the theory of POA is constantly improved in practice. Based on this, this paper takes the “output-oriented approach” as the theoretical framework, and puts forward the research objectives based on the experience of teaching adult classes in Cambodia, and explores the “ POA” teaching system through the design of teaching actions. Through the design of teaching actions, this paper explores the feasibility of integrating the “POA” teaching system with “Career+”, and examines the idea of adapting the teaching materials and how to take it forward.
