  • South Korean Implementation of Communicative Language Teaching by Griffin Welshons a Master's Paper Submitted in Partial Fulfi
    South Korean Implementation of Communicative Language Teaching By Griffin Welshons A Master’s Paper Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of The Requirements of the Degree of Masters of Arts in TESOL ____________________________ Adviser: Douglas Margolis, Ph.D. ____________________________ Date University of Wisconsin-River Falls 2020 Abstract This literature review identifies strategies for improving South Korea’s National Curriculum policy. Communicative language teaching (CLT) is the mandated approach for South Korea’s English education. Currently, CLT in South Korea has seen minimal adoption despite continued CLT-based government policies. This paper will first identify South Korea’s guiding English education principles to understand why CLT has not seen widespread adoption. Next, we examine the historical roots and origins of the policy. Afterward, a comparison between South Korea and other CLT English programs in Asia will address the similarities and differences between CLT practices in the region. South Korea’s pursuit of CLT is then juxtaposed to the vocal disapproval the policy faces. The paper then turns to an examination of strategies to address the main concerns voiced against CLT. These strategies will culminate in a demo lesson unit based on the CLT guidelines. This demo lesson serves as a model for how South Korean teachers might successfully incorporate CLT.

  • Imagining Extensive Speaking for Korean EFL
    Extensive Speaking in Korean EFL 1 Imagining Extensive Speaking for Korean EFL Sarah Gu Seoul Women’s University Eric D. Reynolds* Woosong University Gu, Sarah & Reynolds, Eric D. (2013). Imagining Extensive Speaking for Korean EFL. Modern English Education, XX(X), XXX-XXX. Address: Woosong University; TESOL-MALL department; Head of TESOL-MALL Department; 509 Woosong Language Institute Building; 196-5 Jayang-Dong; Dong-Gu; Daejeon, Korea; 300-718 e-mail: [email protected] telephones: 82-42-630-9245 (office); 82-10-4039-4392 (mobile) The divide between receptive and productive language skills is one of the fundamental conundra of language education in general and of TESOL in particular. The ongoing debate regarding the relative influence of input (e.g. Krashen, 1989) and output (e.g. Swain, 1993) in second language acquisition and proficiency is at the heart of our investigation. Our contention is that output is vitally important to proficiency, if not acquisition, and that the principles that Krashen (1989) and others outline for extensive reading can be used to imagine a design for extensive speaking activities to enhance students’ oral production. In a six-week intensive immersion course we asked these mixed gender university students to record daily monologues on free topics with the teacher providing encouragement but no corrective feedback. At the beginning and end of the course we measured their fluency, proficiency and attitudes to judge the impact of the new pedagogy using both quantitative and qualitative measures. Even this minimal modification in the curriculum produced significantly better results in fluency, proficiency and attitude for the students in the extensive speaking group relative to the students receiving traditional instruction.

  • Working in South Korea As an English Teacher Thesis
    CAUGHT IN THE CROSSFIRE: WORKING IN SOUTH KOREA AS AN ENGLISH TEACHER THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF ADULT EDUCATION BY PETER JOUN APPROVED BY: ADVISOR: Carole Roy DEPARTMENTAL EXAMINER: Erin Careless EXTERNAL EXAMINER: Allan Quigley EXAMINER’S INSTITUTION: Penn State University ST. FRANCIS XAVIER UNIVERSITY ANTIGONISH, NOVA SCOTIA APRIL 2015 1 Abstract Despite having the highest rates of suicide in the OECD and huge disparities in income, the recent recognition of South Korea as an advanced industrial country has been widely heralded as cementing proof of the success of globalization policies in the wake of Korea’s division and destruction during the Korean War. Rising with South Korea’s economic success has been a strong push to make English a major part of South Korea’s educational curriculum. Exams testing for English proficiency are now required in order to apply for work or study at South Korean governmental agencies, companies, universities, and selective secondary schools. The numerous jobs generated by the proficiency exam-driven English as a Foreign Language (EFL) industry attract English- speaking expatriates from around the globe. However, this lucrative endeavor is not without its issues. The roots of these problems appear to be largely systemic and intimately related to the political environment. This study seeks to explore and better understand the motives which impel expatriates from western countries to go to South Korea to teach English as well as the challenges they face when they arrive there, and how the phenomenon of the booming EFL industry is situated within the unresolved military conflict between the US/ROK and North Korea.

  • About Seoul KOTESOL
    Volume 14, Number 2 September 2008 About Seoul KOTESOL The Official Newsletter of KOTESOL Seoul Chapter From Egg Crate to Omelet: Making Our Teaching Community Property (From his presentation at the 2007 KOTESOL International Conference) Dr. Neil J. Anderson Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah, USA Classroom teaching can be a very private activity. Teachers and classrooms have been compared to an egg crate (Lortie, 1975) where teachers enter the privacy of their classrooms and practice their “craft” without others being aware of what is going on. Each classroom stays in its compartment of the egg crate and does not come in contact with others. Instead of viewing our work as an egg crate, let’s search for excellence in our teaching by considering how we can make an omelet. Making our teaching public requires us to open our classrooms up and mix with other teachers. By interacting with other teachers and making our teaching public we can improve how we approach challenging issues and increase student learning. In an essay by Shulman (2004, p. 456) he describes the feelings that he experienced as a new Ph.D. He imagined himself doing two things as a new professor. First, he imagined himself working in “splendid isolation” (p. 455) as a researcher in the stacks of the library. Second, he imagined himself “interacting with others, in the classroom and elsewhere, as a teacher” (p. 455). He then said, What I didn’t understand as a new Ph.D. was that I had it backwards! We experience isolation not in the stacks but in the classroom.
