主讲人简介：
Dr. Zhiyin Renee Dong, assistant professor of Chinese and founding faculty member of the Chinese Language program at the Department of Foreign languages and literatures of the University of Delaware (UD) since 2002, has extensive background in teaching Chinese as a second language, foreign language pedagogy, second language acquisition and Chinese linguistics. With her MBA training and corporation experiences in both U.S and China, Dr. Dong also specializes in teaching business Chinese and is frequent speaker to MBA classes and local business community. Since 2009, Dr. Dong also actively conducts research in experimental neurolinguistics and psycholinguistics focusing on adult second language acquisition, sentence processing, the syntax of Mandarin Chinese and Chinese language education.
讲座主要内容：
此次讲座主要讨论第二外语习得科研中实验心理语言学方法， 特别是电生理学（electrophysiological）和神经影像（neuroimaging）技术的应用，以及现有一些研究成果对外语教学法的实践意义。通过具体展示几项测试二语使用者脑电波实验的设置，数据收集处理和结果，本次讲座探讨一个二语习得中的重要课题： 成人二语使用者在实时处理（real time processing）目标语结构／句法时，是否采用和母语使用者相同的处理机制？ 二语使用者目标语的语法和使用，是否最终能够和母语使用者的相同？本次讲座还将在解释现有研究成果的基础上，探讨如何在汉语教学课堂中培养习得者对汉语语法结构的敏感性。
This lecture discusses (1) how the methodology of experimental psycholinguistics, especially those that use electrophysiological and neuroimaging techniques, are applied in the research of Second Language Acquisition (SLA), and (2) what implications the current findings have on foreign language pedagogy. Specifically, by reporting a series of experiments examining the second language learners’ brainwave patterns, this lecture explores an important research topic in SLA, that is, is there a fundamental difference between native speakers’ and adult second language speakers’ real time processing of structure? Could second language speakers, at the most advanced stage of acquisition, process grammar in real time as the native speakers? In addition, based on the current findings, this lecture also explores how the learners’ sensitivity to structure/grammar rule use could be implicitly cultivated in Chinese as foreign language classrooms teaching.
