This book provides in-depth discussions on the present and future of teaching Chinese characters, focusing on three distinct areas: teaching and learning Chinese characters online; critical perspectives regarding typing Chinese characters in Chinese language classrooms; and the development of methodologies and theories for character teaching. The authors look to the future of teaching Chinese characters in the current digital era, drawing on years of collective experience in different contexts around the world, as well as the influence of online language teaching during the pandemic. The book includes perspectives on teaching methods, learning strategies, and curriculum design, among other areas, and will be a key resource for Chinese language researchers, practitioners, and students.

“This volume brings together nine perspectives from colleagues in several English—speaking countries, all of whom explore the question of which new possibilities for teaching character writing in CFL classes the digital age can offer, and delves deeply into different aspects of that matter. … the volume provides a diverse and contemporary overview of the topic, drawing on an impressive corpus of empirical research and recent literature.” (Andreas Guder, CHUN - Chinesisch Unterricht, Issue 40, 2025)
