An Investigation And Analysis Of Hidden Curriculum In Teaching Chinese As A Foreign Language

Hidden curriculum,as a branch of modern curriculum theory,plays a very important and irreplaceable role.Non-academic knowledge such as consciousness,values,emotional attitudes,and behavioral norms transmitted between intentionally or unintent ionally can affect the second language learner in a subtle way.At present,although domestic scholars have made some achievements in the study of hidden curriculum in teaching Chinese as a foreign language,due to the late start,most of the related research stays at the theoretical level,and the research in practice is relatively insufficient.Most of the only practical researches related to teaching Chinese as a foreign language are mostly carried out from the hidden curriculum in the context of the target language.However,the research on hidden curriculum in Chinese teaching in the mother tongue environment is relatively scarce,and the research on hidden curriculum in nationalized Chinese teaching is scarce.Therefore,this paper starts with the analysis of the theory of hidden curriculum,and combines the hidden curriculum with the actual teaching of Chinese language in Thailand through questionnaires.This article has four parts.The first part is the introduction.Through the literature review of the relevant research materials on the hidden curriculum field at home and abroad,the reason and significance of the topic are clarified.The second part discusses the concepts of hidden courses in d etail by distinguishing between hidden courses and explicit courses.It also classified and combed the hidden curriculum,and summarized the five characteristics and four functions of the hidden curriculum.The third part surveys the hidden curriculum of Suwannaphum pittayapaisarn School in Thailand based on the three categories of hidden curriculum.Based on the statistical results,the existing problems of the hidden curriculum in Suwannaphum pittayapaisarn School is analyzed.Finally,the fourth part puts forward specific suggestions for the development and construction of hidden curriculum from the aspects of material space hidden curriculum,organizat ional system hidden curriculum and cultural psychology hidden curriculum,in order to provide valuable reference for future Chinese language teachers.
