南非以華語為二語學習者之漢字學習研究

本研究的重點是專注在漢字部件的學習與分析。對那些以華語作為第二外國語言，而又沒有中華文化背景的學習者來說，常有許多漢字學習的難點。本論文將研究以華語為第二外國語言的漢字學習。希望藉著漢字部件教學，來幫助二語學習者學習漢字的部件、位置與結構。漢字部件教學是一種華語教學法。它能有效的幫助二語學習者，克服漢字識讀和書寫上的困難。本研究包括探討漢字的教學與學習研究，並且以實行漢字部件教學的方法，來提高漢字學習果效。漢字的學習是華語學習者需要掌握的重要技能之一，華語已成為全世界的一種流行語言，特別是在當前，全球經濟衝擊之下，許多國家的語言政策，都朝向鼓勵國民學習華語。在這個時候，南非基礎教育部實施了一項新的語言政策，就是將中文當作第二外國語言。然而對於第二外國語言的學習者來說，掌握漢字是非常困難的，對華語教師來說也是一個挑戰。本研究之研究方向有三方面，即文獻探討分析，部件教學方法分析與問卷研究分析，這個研究包括了33名 13到14歲的研究對象，他們都是初級程度的華語學習者，他們被分為兩組，包含有17名研究對象的實驗組，和有16名研究對象的對照組，所有研究對象都獲得了教師所提供的相同材料，實驗組採用部件教學法，對照組則使用傳統漢字教學方式。根據研究結果，漢字部件教學方法提升了以華語為第二外國語言學習者「識讀」、「書寫」和「識寫」的能力。根據調查，大多數對漢字部件教學給予很高評價，它影響了以華語為第二語言學習者的漢字認知與書寫的能力。
