“Integrated Chinese – Textbook Simplified Character – Level 1, Part 2, Third Edition,’ Yuehua Liu et al., Review by Dr. Ali Fant, WB5WAF

This review is written from the perspective of a second semester Chinese language student and native-American English speaker with a scientific background. I am fluent in several computer programming languages, but only one human language.

This is the textbook used by the University of Alaska, the Kansas State University, and many American high schools – including the US Department of Defense Dependent Schools located overseas.

The textbook is divided into ten chapters. In the Fairbanks (Alaska) high schools, only the first five chapters are covered in one semester. Universities vary their scope in covering from five to ten chapters during the course of one semester. The Level 1 Part 1 book and this Level 1 Part 2 book together prepare one for the Chinese government’s HSK Level 1 proficiency exam for non-native Chinese language speakers.

My biggest complaint against the textbook is the exclusive use of font size 28, handwritten, cursive style Chinese characters rather than the more easily read printed style Chinese characters. The latter are used as the standard Microsoft YaHei font in Microsoft Word and in most newspapers and books.

According to my university instructor, native Chinese learners eventually recognize their characters based upon overall “shape” regardless of font differences – similar to American students learning to read “bubble” and Gothic English fonts.

I would pay more for a textbook with a larger Chinese characters font size and a spiral coil bound edition. I paid $5.50 to have a local copy shop cut/bind the textbook for improved access to its many slick pages.
