SURVEY ON THE CURRENT STATUS OF STUDENT’S SELF-LEARNING ABILITY IN CHINESE BASED ON MOBILE LEARNING APPLICATIONS
Main Article Content
Abstract
In recent years, with the rapid development of China's economy, the influence of Chinese has become increasingly greater around the world, and more and more foreigners have begun to learn and use Chinese, and Vietnam is no exception. However, with the rapid development of the Internet era, the traditional Chinese classroom learning method can no longer meet the needs of learners. Therefore, mobile learning has gradually become the main form of supplementing formal education, and more and more Vietnamese learners use mobile learning for independent learning. Mobile learning addresses the limitations of traditional classrooms, allowing learners to engage in independent study without the constraints of time and location. With mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, students can access educational resources and learning opportunities anytime and anywhere. This allows learners to arrange their learning time more freely and can learn according to their learning progress and needs. This study focuses on the Chinese oral learning of students in Vietnamese Chinese language centers, aiming to enhance their ability to learn independently. By examining learners' oral proficiency in Chinese, the research seeks to gain a comprehensive understanding of their current situation regarding autonomous learning in this area. The specific content includes learners' learning level, problems in extracurricular learning, expectations and views on extracurricular learning, and the categories, frequency, purpose, and response of mobile learning tools they use in independent learning. This study's results provide a foundation for future research to develop more effective teaching strategies and offer targeted support, helping students enhance their Chinese speaking abilities.
