The Study On Communication Strategies Of Korean Immediate And Advanced Chinese Language Learners

Based on the existing studies and my own teaching practice, I expound on the communication strategies'definition and classification at great length and make the questionnaire on oral communication strategies which is adapt to immediate and advanced Chinese language learners in Korea. Furthermore, the study focuses on the classification, usage and interference factors of CSs among the immediate and advanced Chinese language learners in Korea, and their attitude towards it. The methods include questionnaires, interviews and vocabulary tasks.With the help of SPSS17.0, the statistical analysis of the questionnaires, interviews and vocabulary tasks shows that: 1. on the CSs'use: there are wide discrepancies in Use Mean in the same category, and there is no positive correlation between the use mean and the attitude score. Furthermore, the learners have made the best of native cultural, social knowledge and the relevance between Chinese and Korean. 2. on the attitude: the learners are likely to use achievement strategies and didn't hold the same opinion on each kind of CSs within the same category. The difference of the attitude towards the each kind of CSs is smaller than the usage of the CSs. The immediate learners incline to affirm the positive effect compared with the advanced ones. 3. on the interference factors: Except for the age, gender, the duration of learning Chinese, the Chinese level, personality, there are other factors which can influence the attitude including the correlation between Chinese and Korean, the task, the partner, the level of other foreign language, learners'learning habits, the communication circumstances, the convenience of handling and so on. In addition, except the twenty kinds CSs in the questionnaire, we also find other nine CSs. They are explanation with general knowledge, the pronunciation and the vocabulary of characters, the self-distrust, the listeners'active inquiring, repetition, propriety guide, the self-correct, onomatopoeia, coming up with the Chinese according to the Hanja. At last, we think that during the oral teaching, the teachers should encourage the learners to cultivate the proper attitude on the CSs, and deal with the situations flexibly according to the learners'usage condition and the effect. The teaching of CSs should be based on the premise that the teaching will not have negative effect on the new knowledge learning.
