This unit follows on from CHIN1404 Chinese 4 and provides further development of linguistic and cultural competency. While the unit covers the four linguistic skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing), emphasis is placed on communicative competence and more comprehensive reading and writing skills. At the same time, increased emphasis is placed on recognising radicals that compose Chinese characters and on developing reading and writing skills using a dictionary or online material. <br/><br/>Successful completion of this unit brings students to the ISLPR Level 2+ (International Second Language Proficiency Ratings). -- Course Website
