ABSTRACT

With the advent of the information age, a lot of diversified language symbols such as discourse, text, pictures, body language, audio and video are widely used in teaching. Therefore, the construction of discourse meaning has the characteristics of multimodality. Multimodal discourse analysis theory provides a new perspective for the research of international Chinese classroom teaching. Based on ELAN6.0, this paper analyses the multimodal discourse of four TCSL teachers, so as to reveal the modal selection strategies of excellent international Chinese teachers, and based on this, attempts to summarize the teaching mode suitable for international Chinese classroom teaching.
