This book reflects on the Chinese education context in Singapore, addressing the challenges of the Chinese language education system, exploring innovative and efficient language teaching approaches and proposing new directions for Chinese education in Singapore. It explores Chinese education in the Singapore bilingual context in terms of language policy, sociolinguistics, cultural integration and pedagogical practice, as well as providing a blueprint of Singapore’s Chinese education for the future. It presents chapters from Singaporean scholars who are mostly from the department of Asian Language and Culture and the Office of Education Research in the National Institute of Education at Nanyang Technological University. This book examines the following topics: the sociolinguistic landscape beyond China and the positioning of Chinese in Singapore; pedagogical practices and methodologies in Singapore’s bilingual education context; and Chinese textbooks and teaching materials in Singapore. This book serves as a useful reference for readers interested in language policy and Chinese education internationally, for educators who encounter similar challenges in language education, and for policy makers who aim to fine tune current policies to be more comprehensive and effective.
