Course Assessment
It is a must for Exchange Students to sit for examinations and tests prescribed in the Programme. The examinations and tests are divided into two types: the test for grading and the test for results. There will be other types of small tests. The test for grading, arranged prior to a course, is a level test to assess a student’s Chinese level on entry for an appropriate course placement. The test for results is arranged at the end of teaching to evaluate the result of teaching. Students will be given a total score from the test for the course they have taken. Test results will comprise 70% - 80% of the total score; and other graded work (incl. daily class work, homework and tests) will comprise about 20% - 30% of the total score.
Materials
The Courses are based on a number of textbooks such as:
Practical Chinese Course for Intermediate Learners BLCUP
Chinese Listening and Speaking Course for Intermediate Learners BLCUP
Step by Step Chinese Reader II Sinolingua
The content of the teaching prescribed in the Programme is predominantly based on Chinese Communicative Objectives List, while consulting The Grammar Section in A Grade Syllabus for HSK and Chinese Vocabulary and Glossary Proficiency Level Syllabus
