Welcome to my home page, with information on my current year's course offerings as well as links to my online course syllabi and other pages pertaining to my teaching and research. Immediately below are annotated links to websites that I have served as webmaster over the years. Another OSU website to note is the Institute for Chinese Studies (ICS). As of 1 December 2010, I have been serving as the new director of the Institute for Chinese Studies, one of three institutes that form The Ohio State University's East Asian Studies Center (EASC), under the directorship of Professor Patricia Sieber (DEALL). (The other two EASC institutes are the Institute for Japanese Studies and the Institute for Korean Studies.) The East Asian Studies Center is, in turn, under of the auspices of the University's Office of International Affairs and College of Arts and Sciences.


East Asian Psycholinguistics Colloquium (EAPC) - 13 & 15 October 2012   (Flyer)

ICS seal       Organized by the Institute for Chinese Studies (ICS), the Graduate Association of Chinese Linguistics (GACL), and the Institute for Japanese Studies (IJS), the East Asian Psycholinguistics Colloquium (EAPC) aims to bring together psycholinguists working on East Asian languages and dialects to share their state-of-the-art research.
      The colloquium features five invited speakers from institutions in the U.S. and abroad: Professors James H-Y. Tai (戴浩一, National Chung Cheng University, Taiwan), who is presenting research co-authored with Pei-Fen Du (National Chung Cheng University, Taiwan); John Hale (Cornell University), who is co-presenting with Zhong Chen (Cornell University); Chien-Jer Charles Lin (林千哲, Indiana University); Ming Xiang (University of Chicago); and Tetsuya Sano (Meiji Gakuin University, Japan).
      In addition, two Ohio State University researchers have also been invited to share the fruits of their findings, namely, Dr. Puisan Wong (黃佩珊, Dept. of Otolaryngology) and Dr. Kiwata Ito (Dept. of Linguistics). Topics covered in these talks include sentence processing (especially of relative clauses in Mandarin Chinese), speech production and comprehension, and language acquisition. There will also be a Graduate Student Poster Session.
      The invited talks and the poster session will take place on Saturday, 13 October 2012. One final colloquium event, Prof. Tetsuya Sano's lecture, is scheduled on Monday afternoon, 15 October 2012. For more details, see the EAPC Preliminary Program, prepared by the co-chairs of the EAPC Organizing Committee, Professor Zhiguo Xie and graduate student, Seth Wiener. The colloquium is free and open to the Ohio State University community and to the public.

ICS Grad Forum The Graduate Association of Chinese Linguistics (GACL) is a registered student organization at The Ohio State University, with the goal of promoting the linguistic study of the Chinese language. (I serve as the faculty advisor to this formally-registered, OSU student organization, and our new faculty member in Chinese linguistics, Zhiguo Xie, serves as co-advisor.) Research interests cover the full range of fields within Chinese linguistics — its norm and dialect variants, spoken and written forms, synchronic and diachronic aspects, and theoretical as well as applied linguistics and their pedagogical applications. In addition to meetings and informal get-togethers, it also sponsors talks and guest lectures, and other exciting linguistics activities, such as a new e-working papers in Chinese linguistics.

Past major activities include assisting with the 20th North American Conference on Chinese Linguistics (NACCL-20) in spring 2008, hosting lectures, and co-sponsoring the ICS Graduate Forum: New Horizons in Chinese Linguistics Research (Friday, 20 May 2011 -- see flyer above), an inaugural event organized by the Institute for Chinese Studies that ushered in the ICS Graduate Forum series. Recent events include the co-organization of the Workshop on Innovations in Cantonese Linguistics (WICL), which took place on 16-17 March 2012.

  (CHINOPERL Webmaster: January - December 2010; Website Editor: January 2011 -   )

naccl-20 logo The Conference on Chinese Oral and Performing Literature (CHINOPERL) is a scholarly organization founded in 1969 by Yuen Ren Chao (趙元任, 1892-1982) — who gave the organization its acronym — as well as Harold Shadick (1915-1992), Cyril Birch (1925- ), and a few other established scholars. Membership consists of scholars in the humanities and the social sciences who recognize the significance of oral performance to Chinese literature (popular story-telling, opera, ceremonial chanting, folksong, etc.). Chinoperl is devoted to the research, analysis and interpretation of oral and performing traditions, broadly defined, and their relationship to China's culture and society.

The CHINOPERL website was originally created and unveiled on 9 February 2010 under the ChinaLinks.osu.edu website.

TEACHING
Back to top Courses and Archived Course Syllabi

Teaching and Computer Technology:
Since the mid-1990's, computer technology and Chinese computing have been integral parts of students' coursework in the courses that I teach. Both linguistic and culture courses are taught in multimedia classrooms, which have audiovisual equipment and a computer with internet connection. Recently-taught courses that heavily integrate computer technology into course materials and assignments include my offering of Chinese 231: Traditional Chinese Culture, Chinese 580: The Chinese Language: Description and Analysis, Chinese 674: Chinese Opera, Chinese 6380: Introduction to Chinese Linguistics, Chinese 782: Chinese Phonology, Chinese 782: Modern Chinese Dialects, and Chinese 784: Chinese Syntax, as well as the one-time offering of Chinese 694: Group Studies — Chinese Computing (Sp '00) and Chinese 889: Seminar on Databases and Corpora for Chinese Linguistic Research (Wi '01), Also see my Instructions for Concordancing East Asian E-Texts using Concordance, my 2002 JCLTA article, "Concordancers and concordances: Tools for Chinese language teaching and research" (PDF, 1.03 MB), as well as my 2004 JCLTA review, "Google Search Engine: UTF-8 and Searches in Chinese."
