Course Description
Many 20th century Chinese films were mainly concerned with issues of nationhood, identity, trauma, and a national past. In recent years, however, while some directors have continued to focus on the nation, others have chosen to look at the present, as well as the effects of globalization on Chinese society, culture, and cinema production. This course examines Chinese cinema(s) as transnational, a triangular composite of Mainland, Taiwan, and Hong Kong cinemas that has also been influenced by Japanese and Korean cinema. It introduces Chinese film history and criticism via an examination of thirteen films directed by several of Greater China's most skilled directors. Text: Yingjin Zhang, COMPANION TO CHINESE CINEMA. Assessment: attendance and participation (20%), two film reports (30%), final paper (50%).

Course Description
Family is recognized as the smallest unit of society providing individuals with financial and emotional support, and marriage as the means to make the unit. How the gender politics plays in the unit is a core interest to family studies. Along with industrialization and globalization, the formation of family has become diversified across cultures and generations. This phenomenon has attracted the public's attention and how it impacts our everyday life is worthy of more study. This course examines the social institution through introducing basic issues such as kinship system, different forms of marriage and family, gendered division of labor in the household, parenthood, family violence, and the impact of new technology on our understanding of family. In addition to introducing basic knowledge of family studies, this course singles out some controversial issues for discussion and provides interdisciplinary and cross-cultural perspectives to stimulate critical thinking. For example, we ask why and how the formation of marriage and family is socioculturally variable and seek to de-essentialize given concepts like motherhood and kinship. Throughout the semester, we utilize many empirical studies in different regions to illustrate our reconceptualization of family in today's highly globalized world.

This course provides a theoretical foundation to the understanding of English language teaching methodology. Through this course, students are expected to adopt and apply an international perspective on English language teaching in the face of increasing immigration and globalization. Selective methods used in teaching English to non-native speakers in Hong Kong and abroad are examined. The course covers the principles governing curriculum design and issues central to the implementation of different English teaching methods and theories; methods and theories appropriate to young and adult learners in second or foreign language contexts. The principles covered in this course form the basis for subsequent courses on English language teaching techniques. Text: D. Larsen-Freeman and M. Anderson, TECHNIQUES AND PRINCIPLES IN LANGUAGE TEACHING. Assessment: group presentation and discussion, English Language Teaching (ELT) Methods' Schemata, theory and methodology reflection paper.
