This course invites students to explore contemporary Chinese society, culture, and language through films, TV programs, and social media videos. By engaging with authentic visual narratives and written materials, students will not only enhance their Chinese language skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing but also gain deeper insights into everyday life, values, and social changes in modern China. Each unit combines film-based discussions, vocabulary development, and cultural reflection, encouraging learners to think critically and communicate meaningfully in Chinese.
