About YiQi Hanzi Cairtean Teagaisg

Faodaidh ionnsachadh Sìonais a bhith gu math lèirsinneach. Tha caractaran Sìneach a’ coimhead coltach ri dealbhan toinnte do dhaoine aig nach eil eòlas air Sìonais. Bidh cairtean flash YiQi Hanzi a’ cleachdadh smaoineachadh dealbhaidh agus tarraing gus na caractaran a dhèanamh so-thuigsinn don h-uile duine gus cultar Shìona agus bòidhchead charactaran Sìneach a sgaoileadh. Tha dealbhadh cairtean-flash cuideachd a’ toirt a-steach teicneòlas. Bheir an còd QR air gach cairt luchd-cleachdaidh gu ionad ionnsachaidh air-loidhne YiQi Hanzi gus na goireasan ionnsachaidh airson gach caractar a leudachadh. Tha an dealbhadh eòlas gu lèir ga dhèanamh furasta dha daoine caractaran ionnsachadh agus a chuimhneachadh.

Production Technology: Physical paper, learning flashcards
Design Challenge: The history and development are lost in the time. Sometimes there is no reference to a character that can be used. I need to think creatively about how to use visuals to form the characters in a way that makes the most sense.
Research: Every character creation is based on research on the history of the character. To reference how a character was created at the beginning, what's the revolution it experienced, how Simplified Chinese changed the forms, and if there are any stories behind a character.
Inspiration: To people who don't know Chinese, Chinese characters always look like complicated drawings. I want to use design thinking and drawings to make the 'character drawings' understandable to everyone to spread Chinese culture and the beauty of Chinese characters. This learning method makes it easy for people to visualize the meaning of the characters to better understand and memorize characters.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2020 and finished in January 2021 in San Francisco.
Operation Flow: There are 140 cards, print double-sided, so a total of 280 characters. Besides the physical flashcards, the QR code on each card connects to the YiQi Hanzi Online Learning Center with more learning resources. Includes words, sentences, videos, writing strokes, and more to help people learn characters easily and holistically.
