Abstract

We suggests the methods of teaching Chinese regional studies through the subject of geography and advanced geography under the new high school curriculum. According to our survey carried out to senior high school students, they tend to believe that China is more advanced in economy than Japan. However, they showed less understanding in the reason why China was able to advance in economy. Instead of national levels, we focused on the level of cities and rural areas and its labor movement. Students researched the labor movement of each region. This research introduces the way to motive students in their research.
