Information on the thesis "A Survey of the Distribution and Handling of Basic Syntactic Structures in Advanced Vietnamese Language Textbooks for Foreigners (Based on Corpus of Advanced Vietnamese Language Textbooks from 1980 to 2008)" by graduate student Bui Boi Thu, majoring in Linguistics.1.

Changes during the training process: None 7. Thesis Title: Survey of the distribution and processing of basic syntactic structures in advanced Vietnamese language textbooks for foreigners (Based on the corpus of advanced Vietnamese language textbooks from 1980 to 2008) 8. Specialization: Linguistics; Code: 60 22 01 9. Scientific Advisor: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Vu Van Thi; Currently working at the Department of Vietnamese Studies and Vietnamese Language – Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities – Vietnam National University, Hanoi. 10. Summary of the thesis results: Chapter 1 of the thesis presents some theoretical issues related to the topic, namely the issue of syntactic structure: different understandings of syntactic structure models, sentence components, and sentence classification according to structure and semantics. We have presented different viewpoints of language researchers on the issue of sentence classification. Based on that, we have drawn our own conclusions and consider them as the foundation and research direction for the entire thesis. Chapter 2 of the thesis surveys the distribution and handling of basic syntactic structures in advanced-level foreign language textbooks. In this study, we conducted a survey and classification of syntactic structures (including explained and unexplained structures, and variable structures), then examined the handling of basic syntactic structures, and finally made some observations on the distribution of structures in each lesson and textbook, the number of structures in the textbooks, the explanation of structures, and methods of practicing structures. Each section included specific analyses and examples. Chapter 3: Based on the survey, we propose some optimal solutions for incorporating and processing basic structural data in the development of advanced Vietnamese language textbooks, focusing on the number, models of syntactic structures, methods of explanation, and methods of practicing structures in each section of the textbook. 12. Practical Applications: In practical terms, the research on the distribution and processing of syntactic structures that we propose can be applied to the compilation of Vietnamese textbooks for foreigners, to the design of teaching programs, helping learners easily apply and construct many different sentences from those basic structures. 13. Further research directions: None 14. Published works related to the thesis: None

Changes in academic process: none 7. Official thesis title: Survey the distribution and processing of basis syntactic structures in Vietnamese language teaching textbooks for foreigners at advanced level (through Vietnamese language teaching textbooks for foreigners at advanced level from 1980 to 2008). 8. Major: Linguistics 9 . Code: 60 22 01 10. Supervisors: Prof.Dr. Vu Van Thi, Faculty of Vietnam Studies and Vietnamese, USSH 11. Summary of the findings of the thesis: In addition to the introduction and conclusion, the thesis consists of three main chapters: Chapter 1 of this thesis we have presented some issues related to theoretical topics, including issues of including issues related to the syntactic structure as the model of syntactic structures, sentence components, the classification of sentence according to structure – semantics. In which we have given the different views of researchers about the classification of sentence. On those basis, we give our own opinions and see theoretical topics will be the foundation and direction for the whole thesis research. Chapter 2 of this thesis surveys the distribution and processing of basic syntactic structures in Vietnamese teaching textbooks for foreigners at advanced level. In particular, we conducted a survey and classification of the syntactic structure (Including the structure is explained and not explained, the structure to the sea), then we examined the handling of basic syntactic structures and finally made some comments on the distribution of structures in each lesson, each textbook, the number of structures in the curriculum, explaining the structure, practicing structures, in each content with the analysis and concrete examples. Chapter 3: Based on the survey, we offer a solution in making and handling basic syntactic structure in building teaching Vietnamese textbook improving the quantity and structure of syntactic patterns, explanation, practicing structures in each part of the textbook. 12. Practical applicability: Practically, studying the distribution and processing of syntactic structure that we propose can be applied in the writing of the Vietnamese textbooks for foreigners, in the design of the curriculum, to help learners easy to apply, the sentence construction is much different from that basic structure. 13. Further research directions: None 14. Thesis-related publications: None
