Research on ELAN-Based Multimodal Teaching in International Chinese Character Micro-Lessons

Micro-lessons, a product of the integration of internet technology and mobile devices, exhibit multimodal characteristics through streaming media playback. This study applies multimodal discourse analysis theory and ELAN 6.6 software to analyze award-winning Chinese character micro-lessons from the National Chinese Language Teaching Micro-Lesson Competitions. The research content encompasses the overall application of multimodal resources, their distribution and functions in teaching stages, and the relationships of modalities in each teaching stage. Through quantitative and qualitative analysis, our aim is to uncover usage patterns in Chinese character micro-lesson instruction, providing guidance for design and execution of multimodal Chinese micro-lessons.
