1 Virginia STARTALK Chinese Student Academy Online Learning for Rising 9-12 th Graders July 6 - July 20, 2017 Learn Chinese Earn $50.00 Developed by the Department of East Asian Languages, Literatures, and Cultures of the University of Virginia Funded by the U.S. Federal STARTALK grant Sponsored by the Institute of World Languages & Department of East Asian Languages, Literatures and Cultures the University of Virginia
2 PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The Virginia STARTALK Chinese STUDENT Academy (VSCSA) continues to partner with the Virginia STARTALK Chinese TEACHER Academy (VSCTA), a reputed residential teacher training program, to create a national leading model on learning Chinese language and culture online for rising 9-12 th graders in the U.S. The program offers a 12-day virtual journey, featuring individualized instruction that brings real-world experiences into online learning. Students will experience productive learning outcomes in a linguistically and culturally enriched online environment and have ample opportunities to frequently interact with excellent teachers, teaching assistants, and peer learners to satisfy their individual needs on a daily basis. The program strives to create a truly interactive, communicative, and innovative classroom through the integration of a wide array of authentic tasks and advanced instructional technology. PROGRAM HISTORY The VSCSA started as a half-day Chinese Language and Culture Immersion Program, part of the VSCTA that has offered a graduate course in teaching Chinese as a foreign language for passionate teachers since In 2008 and 2009, the teachers in the VSCTA taught in the Virginia STARTALK Chinese Academy (VSCA) at the Governor s Foreign Language Academy at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) in Richmond. In 2010, VSCTA moved to the University of Virginia (UVa) in Charlottesville to benefit the community surrounding UVa. After nine years of excellence and success in blended and online learning, the 2017 VSCSA will continue to lead pioneering work to create an online learning model for highly-motivated and self-disciplined rising 9-12 th graders. The VSCSA and VSCTA have been made possible by US federal funding for STARTALK to maximize capacities in Chinese language teaching and learning. ELIGIBILITY Chinese language curricula and instruction vary in different school districts. Generally speaking, rising 9-12 th graders who have completed Level II, III, or the equivalent in high schools or other educational settings in Virginia and other states of the US are encouraged to apply. Targeted students should demonstrate ability to use complete simple sentences to exchange ideas on some familiar and predictable topics related to school, family, daily activities, personal preferences, and information about themselves when they submit online application. DATES July 6 July 7, 2017: one-hour online orientation in the morning each day (totally 2 days) July 10-20, 2017: one-hour online learning in the morning per day except Sunday, July 16 (totally 10 days) Note: July 15 on Saturday has a regular virtual class.
3 CLASS SCHEDULE The program offers two online sessions: 9:30-10:30AM & 11:30AM-12:30PM according to U.S. Eastern Standard Time. Selected learners will be assigned to one one-hour session that is best suited for the time zone where they are located. Learners will engage in synchronous online learning during the assigned one-hour time slot per day. Additionally, they will use online materials and complete preview and review components at their own pace and participate in asynchronous independent learning and discussions BEFORE AND AFTER the scheduled one-hour online synchronous learning. An estimated 2-3 hours outside of the virtual class is required on a daily basis. While a certified teacher will teach the one-hour online class, teachers and teaching assistants will work with individual students to facilitate their online learning during their office hours in the afternoon. CLASS SIZE Class size is extremely small and catered to individual needs. Two teachers will work together to teach 2-4 students in each one-hour synchronous session in the morning. The ratio of teacher to students ranges from 1:1 to 1:2. INSTRUCTORS Teachers are experienced teachers that have demonstrated excellence in teaching Chinese language and culture in secondary schools in the U.S. They are recruited nationwide to participate in the Virginia STARTALK Chinese Teacher Academy that aims at training teachers to effectively teach Chinese language and cultures online. They will work with leading teachers, technology specialists, and curriculum developers to successfully deliver daily online instruction during the program. INSTRUCTIONAL TOPICS After participating in two one-hour online orientations on July 6 and 7, you will then embark on an exciting 10-day US-China Virtual Exchange Program and be immersed in authentic Chinese language and cultural products, practices, and perspectives in Beijing, China. The virtual adventure will guide you to engage in authentic experiences in the following five subthemes.
4 Subtheme 1: Arrival at the airport Subtheme 2: Visiting a Chinese host family Subtheme 3: Visiting a high school Subtheme 4: Exploring Beijing Subtheme 5: Farewell to Beijing ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS The program offers no credits. All classes will be conducted online. The 12-day student program features 2- day online orientation and 10-day immersive experiences. Upon the completion of the program, learners will develop proficiency at the intermediate-low level in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The 12- day academy ensures refreshing and productive experiences in learning Chinese language and culture. While formal instruction takes place 9:30-10:30AM or 11:30AM-12:30PM, self-paced learning for preview and review is required and crucial before and after class on a daily basis. Learning materials and tasks are thoughtfully created and organized by the dedicated and excellent instructional team. The material is fun, engaging and effective for productive learning. It is required that the selected students be fully committed to meeting programmatic academic requirements throughout the entire program. We cannot stress enough the importance of daily progress that makes possible the achievement of ultimate learning objectives. Unique Experiences The program will create a unique learning experience for all learners. Authentic language and culture will be well-interconnected and carefully integrated into the curriculum to fully engage learners and ensure frequent interactions between teacher and learners and among learners in the dynamic online community. After the 12-day learning journey, learners will gain confidence in using Mandarin Chinese to communicate with native speakers on familiar topics in daily life. Additionally, learners will develop a better understanding of Chinese cultural norms and become more aware of the differences in cultural values and perspectives that Chinese and American people may have. Another big advantage is that the unique online learning experience will also help learners to get a head start on transitioning from traditional ways of learning to online learning in Chinese language courses or other subject areas. CERTIFICATE OF EXCELLENCE IN LEARNING Although the program does not offer credits, students who fully participate in the program, successfully complete curricular requirements, and demonstrate a strong desire to exert your full potential in learning will receive a Certificate of Excellence in Learning after the end of the program. The University of Virginia was founded by the 3 rd US President, Thomas Jefferson, and remains a top-ranking public institution in the U.S. The Academic Village, created by Thomas Jefferson, is fully committed to a combination of academic excellence and quality learning to help broaden your horizon and widen your scope in becoming a more competent global citizen and leader in the 21th century. The certificate granted by the University of Virginia is a strong token of your academic pursuit and will add a big plus for your college application. PROGRAM FEE Students do not need to pay any program fee. All costs are covered by the program. GIFT CARD Students who fully participate in the program and complete the participation requirements will receive a
5 gift card up to the amount of $50.00 depending on the satisfaction level of your performance after the end of the program.
