國語敎育의 位階化

Abstract

Needless to say, it is presumably beyond question that the contents of teaching Korean are not same in primary school and high school. Nonetheless, there are not any consideration and discussion about the difference of content along with hierarchy in Korean language education. Therefore many planners and teachers have set up the contents of subject Korean are just same in primary, middle, and high school, and many researchers have approached teaching Korean without regard to the students. Hierarchical differentiation in Korean language education is necessary for the efficiency of education, in the light of this, I propose hierarchical differentiation as focused performance, analysis, and evaluation in primary, middle, high school each other. It is drawn from the nature of human development, education, and language all around. In performance focused primary school, there should always be a keen interest in words - their sounds, shapes and meanings - from the point of view of hearing them, reading them, speaking them, writing them and thinking about them, and that pupils should have access to as many of them as possible. In analysis focused middle school, there should be systematic analysis about various materials and situations of language activities, therefore thinking activities through language are important in this hierarchy. In evaluation focused high school, Korean language teaching should emphasize the ability of having subjectivity through evaluation of language activities.
