Implementing Active Learning in Korean language Education
This paper discusses the background and issues surrounding Korean language learning and reports on the results of active learning practices implemented in class and self-study exchange groups carried out in the 2023 academic year. First, in class opportunities for group study were increased, allowing students to teach each other, and quizzes in every class were conducted to support students’ independent learning. In addition, active learning through culture was actively promoted to further increase student motivation. As extracurricular activities, two types of offline study sessions to prepare for the ‘Test of Proficiency in Korean’, as well as multiple online study sessions were conducted as part of the club activities. Although management of the self-study sessions was challenging, the participants expressed a high level of satisfaction. Carrying out this activity as part of the student club activities is one factor that facilitated the establishment of the self-study exchange meetings. Despite the burdens that accompany active learning, students were able to increase their amount of learning and their motivation to study was also stimulated by fellow learners, and therefore the overall environment for learning Korean was improved.
