The Implementation and Evaluation of Training Course for Chinese as Second Language Teachers’ e-Learning Capacity

Abstract

In this study we made references to past literatures and developed a e -Learning training program for Chinese as Second Language ( CSL) teachers. The class was held from July to August, 2010, in Chinese Culture University (Taiwan), and we designed a performance -evaluation questionnaire with the Delphi method. Three months after the training program was completed, the questionnaire was given to the 30 students of the class, and th ey were asked to answer questions regarding their use of e -Learning in the actual practice. We also asked 5 student s to conduct experimental e -Learning for us to video -record and observe. This effort allows us to discuss the use of e -Learning among CSL tea chers in Taiwan, come up with a conclusion and suggestions, and use the findings as references for course -planning and policies or research regarding the e-Learning of Chinese.
