Communicative approach as a means of increasing students' motivation to learn Chinese language

with the global growth of Chinese language learning, students' motivation to learn Chinese has become a key factor affecting the effectiveness of language learning. Based on the theoretical framework of communicative language teaching (CLT), this study examines how to enhance students' motivation to learn Chinese through a communicative approach. The article systematically analyzes the internal and external factors affecting students' motivation, including motivation, learning attitudes, instructor factors, textbook design, and classroom environment, and suggests learning strategies based on the communicative approach, such as authentic communicative situations, task-based learning, cooperative learning, and cultural integration. The results of the study show that the communicative approach can effectively stimulate students' intrinsic motivation, enhance their language use ability and cultural identity. The scientific novelty of this paper is that it integrates recent research findings and proposes communicative strategies applicable to Chinese language teaching, which fills the gaps in the application of existing research in a cross-cultural context. Future research can further explore the adaptability of these strategies in different cultural contexts and at different stages of learning.
