| metadata.dc.description.other-abstract: | This study adopts the inquiry-based approach to guide students in learning through problem-solving and experiential learning. In the Chinese language classroom, students use questions to acquire more knowledge, engage in collaborative inquiry and discussions, and open their minds to adapt to the changing classroom dynamics and environment. This research was conducted as a qualitative project at a high school in Pathum Thani Province, Thailand. It aimed to examine the values of inquiry-based approaches and to see how much the approaches support the students in improving their Chinese speaking skills. Three types of data were collected, including interviews, teacher’s journals, and students’ learning logs, and triangulated to find out the answers to the two research questions. The results revealed 7 key issues where this method facilitates Chinese learning, including more fluency and accuracy, asking more questions, using a lot of media, conversing in Chinese with friends, better grammar awareness, making Chinese presentations, and gaining more scores in the Chinese quizzes. The experimental results show improvements in students’ Chinese pronunciation, learning mindset, confidence, and study strategies. This study contributes to the Chinese teaching community in Thailand and internationally, particularly in speaking Chinese proficiency and curriculum design, and has a positive impact on cultural and educational cooperation between Thailand and China |
