일본어 기반 지역연계 프로그램 활성화 방안 연구

Abstract

As the number of college admissions decreases sharply due to the aging society, many changes are needed in the status and roles of universities. Considering the reality of current college education which values practical and converged education, universities and educational departments have to develop their own specialized education strategies. Most importantly universities in local areas have to develop specialized strategies that reflect the needs of their own communities, since such efforts can greatly contribute not only to the community in the mid- to long-term, but also serve as co-survival foundation for both communites and universities. In this study, we sought to find ways for universities to contribute to the community by developing inter-regional programs based on Japanese language. In particular, we looked at the practice of interrelational program (programs between Japanese students and local residents), the local restaurants, the FG (Friendly Guide) program, and the local government SNS Tour. Through this study, we have confirmed that this kind of language-based regional linkage program can be implemented in a variety of forms, using the characteristics of universities. The study is about the development of a Japanese-based inter-collegiate programs between universities and regions, and we expect to apply the results of the study to other languages as well as Japanese.
