Discovering Chinese Pro is a technology based curriculum that is accessible on any computer or tablet.
Key Features
- Inquiry-Based and Student Centered. Designed with students in mind, Discovering Chinese Pro’s beautifully illustrated comic-book style lesson stories reflect students’ world with regard to who they are, where they live, what they need, and what they like to do.
- Future Ready. Rich technology for instructional delivery as well as in-class/after-class group and individual practice exercises with Chromebook, PC/Mac, and Apple iOS iPad App. Teachers have the flexibility to use textbooks and/or technology in the classroom and assign group or individual after-class practice activities. Powerful assessment tools allow teachers to customize assessments for individual students.
- Multidimensional Engagement. Students can explore, practice, and relearn with ease. At any given time, students can navigate from the current lesson to previously learned vocabulary with a simple touch gesture on the iPad. This feature allows for differentiated learning by letting students focus on the skills they want to work on, such as writing, speaking, pinyin tones, etc. with immediate feedback.
- Standards-Aligned. Lessons are themed-based; the program reflects National Standards 5Cs as well as three modes of communications. This program prepares students up to intermediate-low proficiency.
These companion textbooks provide teachers with the maximum flexibility for their learning environment. The textbook can be used as a reference guide during the practice exercises to avoid having to flip between various screens. If students show-up to class with uncharged devices, these textbooks can act as a substitute. Please click here for a table of contents.
