문법평가문항 개발 방향성에 관한 고찰 : 대학수학능력시험 일본어Ⅰ을 대상으로

Abstract

For this study, efforts were made to discuss directions regarding the development of questions to test grammar knowledge, intended for Japanese Ⅰ in CSAT (College Scholastic Ability Test). To date, as to questions to test grammar knowledge, sentences focused on forms and meanings have been set for questions, causing them to be somewhat inauthentic or unnatural. However, in the current high school Japanese education, the aim of the lesson is to cultivate the ability to interact with Japanese speakers, centered around fundamental expressions for communication. To achieve this aim, it is important to develop questions for the accurate and uniform assessment of forms, meanings and pragmatics among those items related to knowledge of grammar. Because of this, questions with passages that contain expressions for communication and that are intended for assessment of textuality and authenticity are suggested. Additionally suggested questions are those that require inferences to be made about situations or contexts found in questions and passages and that allow for a focus on the ability to use grammar knowledge by providing visual information according to expressions for communication. Though questions offered in this study are mere suggestions focused on the development of questions to assess the practical ability of learners to apply their learning or knowledge, further studies are needed to develop various types of questions and to arrange assessment methods in order to activate discussions about methods for assessment involving teaching-learning-evaluation, thus making it possible to make assessments based on not only grammar knowledge, but also the ability to use it.
