Project Description |
Understanding Hanyu Pinyin and the ability to put the knowledge in use are essential to all tertiary students in Hong Kong where Putonghua becomes a popular medium both at work and in daily life. Being native Cantonese speakers, many Hong Kong students find it hard to articulate accurately sounds and tones while communicating in Putonghua and often feel inadequate in practice even though they have studied the phonetic system, Hanyu Pinyin, in primary and secondary schools.The multimedia online course is designed for providing access round the clock to both students and staff who need to improve their knowledge in understanding the phonetic system in order to speak better Putonghua, as well as their skills in using Hanyu Pinyin to communicate effectively. |

Project Outcome |
A web-based learning and teaching tool 《漢語拼音之家》(http://lc.ust.hk/~material/pinyin) aiming at enhancing students’ understanding of the phonetic system of Putonghua was developed. The website was specially designed for native Cantonese speakers and preparing students to seat in the public assessment 普通話水平測試. |
