This research explores the potential value of online comics in Chinese as a foreign language (CFL) education for nonbackground learners in the context of Australia. Mixed research methods, quantitative and qualitative, were adopted to investigate the affordances of online comics in CFL education, examining their effectiveness in improving students' word recognition ability and exploring how students' attitudes towards online comics influence their word recognition ability. During the time of the research, when the researcher was a teacher-researcher in the research school, data was collected from 60 students and one mentor teacher, through pre- and post-tests, artefacts, survey questionnaire, interview, and the teacher-researcher's self-reflective journals. It was found that online comics' affordances were connected with the characteristics of meaningful learning, which afforded CFL teaching and learning by showing it as usable with everyday life content, by making it useful through online comic creation, and by creating a fun and conducive teaching and learning environment in the classroom. In addition, the quantitative data analysis indicated that as the main teaching and learning method, the strategy of using online comics to teach Chinese characters may have improved their word recognition ability. Moreover, students' attitudes towards online comics had significant influence on their Chinese word recognition ability. Students' perceptions of online comics' effectiveness, regardless of year and gender, were found to be related to their improvement in word recognition ability. On the other hand, students of different years and genders had different preferences towards online comics, and such preferences had different influences on their word recognition ability. Specifically, Year 6 students' perceptions of online comics increased their motivation and were found to influence improvement of their word recognition ability. Girls' opinions of thinking online comics were interesting in CFL learning were found to influence their improvement in word recognition ability. This thesis hopes to illuminate online comics in CFL teaching and learning. The findings of this research suggest the importance of adopting effective teaching approaches that align with students' preferences.
