At the beginning of each class (after taking attendance) I will review each chapter and then discuss the Wikipedia articles related to each chapter. It may be
impossible to cover each article. However articles may be clustered according to subject and then assigned to a student to read and to introduce in an oral
presentation to the class.
I will ask students in both classes to select articles from among the above listed Wikipedia entries. Once an article is assigned to a student, no one else will be able
to choose the same article(s). After each student has been assigned an article/articles, he/she will be required to do research based on the subject of the article
and give a an oral report in class, along with a written report which will be handed in for grading. I will ask two students to give short presentations each class on
the subjects which they have been assigned and which are listed to the right of each chapter in the table above. In addition, I will ask students of various
nationalities to report on Chinese studies and Chinese scholars who are from their countries and who write in their native language: they can read the articles on
and related to Sinology to get information on Chinese studies in their respective countries/languages.
As we discussed, we can arrange one or two field trips (as available time and course scheduling may permit) to relevant cultural venues such as museums, historical
sites, etc. As you suggested, this may be an optional activity for which a student may receive extra credit.
I want to get every student involved in this class and develop their continuing interest in Chinese culture by giving them knowledge which will motivate them to
engage in ongoing self-study and research related to Chinese culture after they finish the course.
