Abstract
由2020-2021學年起,中國歷史(中史) 科正式成為香港初中的必修科目,於全港中學推行,以促進學生對國情和中華文化的認識。在香港的主流學校中,除了以中文為母語的華藉學生外,還有一些非華語的學生在學。對後者而言,學習中文已經不容易,要通過中文學會中國歷史的挑戰性,可想而知。
為解構非華語生以中文學習其他學科的困難,本文將以中史科為案例,彙報一套2020年出版的相關教材的分析結果。參考新修訂的中史科課程文件,本文的分析範圍涵蓋「政治演變」、「文化特色」及「香港發展」等重點課題。結合語料庫的檢索統計方法及電腦輔助文本分析,結果凸顯中史科的基本詞彙、典型的學科學術語言形式及教材文本的語體特色。以實證為基礎,本文為非華語生調適中國歷史教材以致探討有效教學法,提供嶄新的視角。
To promote students’ understanding of the current state of China and Chinese culture, Chinese History has become a compulsory subject for junior secondary schools in Hong Kong in 2020-2021. The revised school curriculum has posed an immense challenge for non-Chinese speaking (NCS) students studying in the mainstream schools. For NCS students, learning Chinese Language is strenuous, let alone learning Chinese History in Chinese which is not their native language.
In order to deconstruct the difficulties of NCS students learning Chinese language across the curriculum, this chapter reports a case study on the Chinese History subject. With reference to the latest revised curriculum, the key topics on “Political Evolution”, “Cultural Characteristics” and “Hong Kong Development” from a set of Chinese History textbook published in 2020 were analysed. Taking a mixed methods approach, corpus searching and statistical methods have been adopted to investigate the subject specific word profiling while computer assisted text analyses were conducted to reveal the respective academic language features and genres. Based on empirical evidences, this chapter provides an alternate perspective for adapting materials and exploring effective pedagogies for teaching Chinese History to NCS students in Chinese.
