The Application of Chinese Traditional Talents in International Chinese Education

Abstract

Chinese traditional talents are integral to China's rich cultural heritage. In the context of contemporary international Chinese education, there are pressing issues in the application of these talents. This paper analyzes the advantages and shortcomings of Chinese traditional talents in international Chinese education, utilizing the "cultural triangle" methodology to propose a streamlined "Chinese Traditional Talent Triangle" comprising talent concepts, activities, and products. Using specific talents such as "tea art" and "Chinese opera" as exemplars, it puts forth design and assessment strategies for the implementation of the Chinese Traditional Talents. Additionally, it offers insights for optimizing the dissemination and application of Chinese traditional talents: Designing Chinese traditional talent courses with a focus on "language skills +vocational proficiency"; enhancing the competence of International Chinese language teachers in Chinese traditional talents; fostering "talent concepts": innovating the "talent activities" platform and "talent products" brand.
