초록

The newly-inaugurated Korean government has announced the new language education policy, ‘Teaching English in English (TEE)’ system, for every student from elementary to university levels. This innovative policy was introduced after the announcement of the new state-wide English language ability test, which is being developed by Korea Institute for Curriculum and Evaluation (KICE). It is expected that the new test will influence the teaching and learning of the English language in general. Hence, this paper explores English teacher-learners’ beliefs about the change of the English language testing system and their intended teaching and learning methods to prepare for the test. For analyses, a survey and an interview were employed. The teachers acknowledged that the current educational policy has exerted negative effects on English education and the students indicated that English language testing has significantly impacted their learning methods. Additionally, this study suggests that the preparation of policy makers should include both scholarly opinions and practical perspectives from actual language users in Korean society.

Abstract

The newly-inaugurated Korean government has announced the new language education policy, ‘Teaching English in English (TEE)’ system, for every student from elementary to university levels. This innovative policy was introduced after the announcement of the new state-wide English language ability test, which is being developed by Korea Institute for Curriculum and Evaluation (KICE). It is expected that the new test will influence the teaching and learning of the English language in general. Hence, this paper explores English teacher-learners’ beliefs about the change of the English language testing system and their intended teaching and learning methods to prepare for the test. For analyses, a survey and an interview were employed. The teachers acknowledged that the current educational policy has exerted negative effects on English education and the students indicated that English language testing has significantly impacted their learning methods. Additionally, this study suggests that the preparation of policy makers should include both scholarly opinions and practical perspectives from actual language users in Korean society.
