The concrete methods to realize the main characteristics of 2007 revised Korean curriculum are as these; 1)textbook and classroom activity should focus on text production and reception. 2)knowledge, skill and context should be integrated in producing and receiving text. 3)There should be much integration among the domains, among the standard, among the elements of contents. 4)Teacher should interpret actively 'the level and scope of the text' and 'the examples of the elements of content'. 5)communication and interaction should be emphasize in classroom activity.
