Constructing a Paradigm for Children’s Contextualized Learning

By: Li Jilin

This book focuses on summarizing four elements from the classic Chinese literary theory: truth, beauty, emotion and imagination. Based on the latest findings from learning sciences and brain science, it elaborates on the reasons for creating contexts in language teaching. It also shows how the aesthetical theories can be used to nurture contextualized instruction and presents six major approaches for creating contexts: creating contexts with real objects, representing contexts with pictures, evoking contexts with music, experiencing contexts with acting, unfolding contexts with real life, and describing contexts with languages. The author is a practitioner with over 30 years of practical research experience and all their studies are discussed in this book.

Curriculum and Practice for Children’s Contextualized Learning

By: Li Jilin

Based on the authors’ over 30 years of practical research experience, this book shows how situation curriculum design illustrates the new idea of “combining subject curricula with children’s activities.” Particular attention is given to the subject curriculum, activity curriculum and the optimization of the situation. The curriculum is the most important vehicle of children’s learning, and the primary school curriculum is vital to children’s growth. Drawing on detailed case studies, the book highlights how situation curriculum design is currently affecting traditional Chinese primary schools.

Rethinking China's Rise

A Liberal Critique

By: Jilin Xu

China's rise to power is the signal event of the twenty-first century, and this volume offers a contemporary view of this nation in ascendancy from the inside. Eight recent essays by Xu Jilin, a popular historian and one of China's most prominent public intellectuals, critique China's rejection of universal values and the nation's embrace of Chinese particularism, the rise of the cult of the state and the acceptance of the historicist ideas of Carl Schmitt and Leo Strauss. Xu's work is distinct both from better-known voices of dissent and also from the 'New Left' perspectives, offering instead a liberal reaction to the complexity of China's rise. Yet this work is not a shrill denunciation of Xu's intellectual enemies, but rather a subtle and heartfelt call for China to accept its status as a great power and join the world as a force for good.
