외국인 학부생 대상 한국어 수준별 글쓰기 교재 개발 방안 연구

Abstract

This study aims to suggest a method for developing a writing textbooks according to the Korean proficiency of foreign undergraduate students. We analyzed six types of college writing textbooks and found that texts and activities in them did not fully reflect the learners’ Korean proficiency. It was also revealed that there was little practice to internalize writing skills and strategies. In addition, need analysis was conducted for 185 foreign students. As a result, the educational needs for college writing differed according to Korean proficiency. There were differences in the needs of intermediate and advanced Korean learners in the writing tasks mainly performed at university, the types of writing tasks that require learning, the preferred writing skills, and the publication type of textbooks. Based on the results, this study set the direction for developing writing textbooks for foreign undergraduate students according to their level of Korean proficiency. The writing textbooks should be developed to improve academic literacy and critical thinking ability. They also should provide customized educational content suitable for the learners’ Korean proficiency, and should be able to cultivate academic writing skills required by the academic discourse community and procedural knowledge required for an academic text production. Moreover, the writing textbooks should be published for a digital environment. Based on this, this study presented the syllabus, unit composition, and the examples of writing activities in writing textbooks for the students at the intermediate and advanced level of the Korean proficiency.
