대학 글쓰기 수업 개선을 위한 학습자 만족도 연구

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to improve university writing classbased on the student satisfaction level survey on writing class. Thesurvey was conducted by measuring which method is more preferredby students among the many ways of ‘reading text’ and ‘type ofcorrection.’ The survey results from 80 students from 2 groups whotook the same class are as follows:Students clearly preferred ‘short text’ and ‘easy to understand text’than ‘long text’ and ‘somewhat hard to understand text.’ This leads toa conclusion that students favor short and easy to understand textmaterials. To maximize the effect of writing activities, a suitable levelof reading activities need to be accompanied. This study revealed thatchoosing proper reading text materials based on the interest and thelevel of the students is an important factor on student satisfactionlevel. This semester’s correction instruction included ‘correction ingroups,’ that group members correct the given reading materialstogether, ‘fellow’s correction (crossing correction),’ that fellow studentcorrects other student’s writing, ‘instructor’s correction,’ that instructorcorrects the students’ writing, and ‘instructor’s comment,’ thatinstructor openly corrects the students’ wiring during the class. Students mostly preferred ‘instructor’s correction’ and ‘instructor’scomment.’ Some previous studies showed positive results on ‘fellow’scorrection,’ but students obviously preferred correction by theinstructor. It is necessary to devise effective correction instructionmodels while not burdening the instructors with heavy workload forcorrection.
