Ancient Chinese fables are stories with allegoric or educational significance in ancient China. The
length of this literary genre is short, but the language is very refined. The content of ancient Chinese fables is
simple but always brings out profound wisdom from the stories. The existing research of ancient Chinese fables
on teaching Chinese as a foreign language is quite lacking. In fact, the application of ancient Chinese fables in
teaching Chinese as a foreign language has great practical values. Story pedagogy and gamification teaching
activities can increase non-Chinese learners' interest, motivation and learning effectiveness. The effective teaching
method such as gamification teaching activities using card games, slides and learning sheet (CSLS), visual image
and video, word puzzles, word guessing games and theatrical games can boost the learners’ concentration, deepen
their memory, improve their listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. Furthermore, non-Chinese learner will
get closer to the extensiveness and profoundness of traditional Chinese culture by through learning ancient
Chinese fables. This study will refer to the course syllabus of teaching Chinese as a third language at UiTM as an
example to explore the application and effectiveness of ancient Chinese fables in teaching Chinese as a third
language in UiTM. The limitations of this teaching method and solutions will also be discussed in this article. The
research significance of this article is by giving some suggestions in teaching the ancient Chinese fables. Looking
forward to these suggestions can serve to induce contributions in the teaching Chinese as third language in UiTM |
