University of Stellenbosch. Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. Dept. of Modern Foreign Languages. Chinese characters Second language acquisition Computer-assisted instruction for foreign speakers Dissertations -- Chinese language Theses -- Chinese language Modern Foreign Languages Thesis (MPhil (Modern Foreign Languages))--University of Stellenbosch, 2005. In this thesis, I pinpoint the challenge of character learning as my research problem, which is the subsequent motivation to explain the background and rationale of my research. I also discuss the theoretical concepts of Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) in relation to cognitive psychology, the constructivist learning theory and Second Language Acquisition theories. This leads to the presentation of my considerations regarding design principles, strategic approach and other relevant decisions. The multimedia project I designed, named the “Chinese Character Challenger”, a “supplementary courseware for assisting students learning characters”, is an informational and educational-oriented website. It provides learners with the necessary knowledge, hints, tips and sources to cope with their specific learning problems and to achieve their learning potential. It also introduces external resources of learning if learners need further research. The purpose of the website is to assist, to motivate and to further guide students’ learning. To conclude, I have discussed some open issues with regards to adding value in the learning environment.
