Abstract

The increasing global influence of China and its economic rise have made Mandarin Chinese a valuable skill for international communication and job opportunities, especially in countries like Indonesia that maintain close economic ties with China. The research aims to understand the dominant types of motivation and to identify common obstacles students encounter in acquiring the language. A mixed-method approach was used, combining quantitative descriptive methods through questionnaires distributed to 69 first- and second-year students, and qualitative methods through interviews with 10 students. The findings reveal that most students are instrumentally motivated, driven by the desire for better employment prospects and educational advancement, rather than integrative factors such as cultural interest or native-like fluency. Major learning difficulties include pronunciation (particularly tones and retroflex consonants), grammar, and the memorization and writing of Chinese characters (hanzi), largely due to interference from the Indonesian language and limited exposure to Mandarin in their environment. Despite these challenges, students exhibit a generally positive learning attitude, especially in classroom participation. This study concludes that greater support in pronunciation, grammar instruction, and character acquisition is necessary, and suggests that future research explore broader contexts and more advanced student groups.

Abstract

In many educational settings particularly in vocational schools Mandarin instruction still focuses heavily on grammar drills and vocabulary memorization, while the development of cultural understanding often receives less attention. This study aims to explore the implementation of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in Mandarin language education with a specific focus on Chinese cultural appreciation. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through observation, questionnaires, and project evaluations. The results show that the application of PBL significantly increased students’ engagement, creativity, and confidence in using Mandarin in real-life contexts. Moreover, students demonstrated a deeper appreciation of Chinese traditions, values, and aesthetics, which fostered their cross-cultural awareness and multicultural competence. In conclusion, Project-Based Mandarin Learning with an emphasis on cultural appreciation proves to be an effective pedagogical strategy to link language learning with cultural understanding. This approach supports the development of communicative, cognitive, and cultural skills that are relevant to global education and the 21st-century learning framework.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of the short course program at Nanchang Normal University on the development of Mandarin language skills of students in the Mandarin Language Education Study Program at UNM. This research employs a quantitative descriptive method with a pre-test and post-test experimental design. The data were collected by measuring students’ Mandarin language proficiency before and after participating in the program. The results show that prior to joining the short course, students’ Mandarin proficiency was at a moderate level and not yet optimal, particularly in speaking and writing skills, which were still weak in terms of vocabulary mastery and sentence structure. After completing the program, students’ proficiency improved to a good level, with the average score increasing from 108.18 to 158.91. This improvement is reflected across all four language skills, especially in listening and speaking. The results of the paired sample t-test indicate a significance value of 0.001 (< 0.05), meaning that the short course program has a significant effect on students’ Mandarin language proficiency. Therefore, the short course program is proven to be effective in improving Mandarin language skills and can be recommended for curriculum development and academic policy at UNM.
