Item A Review of Technology Enhanced Chinese Character Teaching and Learning in a Digital Context(University of Hawaii National Foreign Language Resource Center; Center for Language & Technology, 2023-10-02) Li M; Dorothy C; Heift TThe acquisition of Chinese characters has been widely acknowledged as challenging for learners of Chinese as a foreign language (CFL) due to their unique logographic nature and the time and effort involved. However, recent advancements in instructional technologies demonstrate a promising role in facilitating the teaching and learning of Chinese characters. This paper examines studies exploring technology-enhanced character teaching and learning (TECTL) through a systematic literature review of relevant publications produced between 2010 and 2021. The synthesised findings shed insights on the research undertaken in the TECTL field, identifying a focus on characters’ component disassembling, re-assembling, and associations among orthography, semantics, and phonology. In addition, learners’ perceptions towards the use of technology and the benefits of various types of technological tools are also discussed in detail. Implications for TECTL were also put forward for future pedagogical practice and exploration.
