CHNS3000 Chinese for Native Speakers 1
Guideline for Research Project
This research project requires you to organise a piece of mini research by library research
and to develop logic arguments with detailed support. First, you will identify a piece/s of
high-quality Chinese literary or non-literary work that you have enjoyed reading for this
project. Second, you are expected to analyse some specific aspects of this piece of work in
depth from critical perspectives and maintain coherence and consistency throughout the
whole project. It is your responsibility to select a topic of interest, identify the exact piece/s
of work, search previous research on this work through a range of academic sources (esp.
the Chinese database below), and develop your own findings/arguments based on the
research.
To complete this project, you need to do three assessment tasks on the same piece of
Chinese literary or non-literary work:
1) a research proposal (5%) (due in Week 5)
2) an oral presentation (15%) (due in multiple weeks from Week 6-13)
3) a research project report (30%) (due in Week 13)
Detailed requirements for each task are listed below.
Research proposal
In Week 5 of the semester, you are required to submit a brief proposal for the research
project in 200 words (i.e., about 300 Chinese characters). Prior to your research on the
chosen topic, your proposal must be approved by the teachers, who will provide detailed
feedback to and suggestion for your project. You need to list your primary and possible
secondary data in the proposal.
Primary data: the text/s to be analysed for this project. In this unit, only literary or non-
literary work originally published in Chinese language after May 4th Movement (1919) can
be used as primary data. Please be noted that any texts discussed in the lectures and
tutorials should not be used as primary data for this project. Also, translated works from
other languages or works published earlier than 1919 should not be used for this project.
Secondary data: the previous research literature on the topic or the texts to be analysed.
The following database that is fully available via the Fisher Library website would be
extremely helpful for developing this project as the source of secondary data.
CAJ: China Academic Journal Full-text Database via CNKI
http://libguides.library.usyd.edu.au/az.php?a=c&s=95225
The proposal should include:
S1, 2024
1) preliminary title of the project
2) primary data
3) possible secondary data
4) possible research focus or research question.
All the contents in the proposal can be amended or changed based on your further reading
and thinking, but major changes of the primary data should be re-approved by the teacher.
Samples of research proposal can be found in the Course Reader and the Canvas site.
Oral presentation
This is the opportunity for you to share your research in progress with your teachers and
peer classmates and to seek their feedback and suggestions. A 10-minute oral presentation
plus 5-minute Q & A with preparation of around 10-12 PPT slides will start from Week 6
tutorial. Everyone needs to do it on time according to the registered schedule. Any
rescheduling needs to be applied for at least two weeks in advance of your presentation and
late penalty might apply.
In the presentation, you are NOT expected to present a complete research project. You just
need to present your work in progress and let us know what you have done so far for this
project.
In the presentation, you are expected
• to present clearly the major aim or research focus of your project,
• to demonstrate ability to establish and develop an argument based on your critical
analysis of the primary data,
• to provide support to the argument by exploring relevant references from CAJ (China
Academic Journal) Full-text Database and/or other sources (i.e., the secondary data),
• to illustrate clearly the key distinctions between your own arguments and those in
the previous research, and
• to do their presentation in an effective manner, especially in terms of delivery skills
and audience engagement skills.
The presentation will be followed by a brief Q & A session with comments and discussions
provided by all the students and the teacher.
Four presentations will usually be scheduled for each session.
The presentation slides must be submitted online via Canvas on the same day of your
presentation. The due date/time of oral presentation on Canvas is just for the design of the
assignment and is not applicable to any student.
Late penalty will apply with 5% per calendar day.
Research project report
S1, 2024
The report needs to be completed in Week 13 with 2,000 English words or about 3,000
Chinese characters. Sample reports are available at the end of the Course Reader.
Subheadings can be added for each section. Possible sections can include
1) introduction
2) analysis
3) discussion
4) conclusion
5) bibliography
The reference style should be APA 7th. A complete guideline for APA 7th is available on the
Canvas site.
Possible primary data
You can choose one piece of literary or non-literary work from the following list or from the
Reading List on Canvas to work on for the project. It is also possible to choose any other
piece of work beyond these lists, subject to the teacher’s approval. You are encouraged to
find your own interest and develop the research by reading and thinking around your own
interest.
