Abstract :
This paper systematically investigates the practical value of integrating modern information technology into the pedagogy of Chinese language majors in higher education. It aims to provide an effective reference for enhancing students’ comprehensive proficiency in applied Chinese and cultivating their cross-cultural communicative competencies. Furthermore, this study seeks to facilitate the continuous optimization and upgrading of Chinese language instruction toward highly efficient and smart educational paradigms.Employing a quasi-experimental design and quantitative analysis, this research contrasts the traditional pedagogical model with a digitally empowered diversified teaching framework. The instructional intervention emphasizes the application of digital resource-sharing platforms, Virtual Reality (VR), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Big Data analytics. In conclusion, the application of information technology within the pedagogy of Chinese Language and Literature in higher education yields substantial advantages. It not only broadens the channels for sourcing instructional content, diversifies the modalities of classroom instruction, and enhances learners’ academic efficacies, but also facilitates the precise, data-driven evaluation of the pedagogical process. Consequently, higher education institutions should proactively explore pathways for the deep integration of information technology with Chinese language pedagogy, thereby effectively elevating the instructional quality of Chinese language courses.
