일본어 수업에서의 유튜브 활용

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to provide useful information on Japanese language education to instructors and learners by presenting a Japanese teaching and learning model using YouTube content as part of the learner-centered 21st century teaching- learning method. First of all, 10 YouTube channels targeting the Korean learners of Japanese were selected based on the number of subscribers and content activation. The 10 channels were analyzed according to the learner-centered usability evaluation criteria, and the educational content, instructional design, and user interface. As a result, in the case of educational content, the basic vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, expressions, and content to teach cultures for Japanese learning were the main ones. In addition, a considerable number of learning strategy videos for effective learning were also occupied. Most characteristically, YouTube channels were making a lot of efforts to arouse learners’ interest. In other words, in learning Japanese, many attempts were made to convey difficult linguistic knowledge and information in an interest-arousing manner by actively utilizing various multimedia materials such as advertisements, dramas, movies, animations, news, and songs. Next, based on this analysis, a teaching model using YouTube videos was presented. Class models that passively used YouTube videos to provide data (for beginners) and class models that actively used YouTube videos (for intermediate-level or higher) were presented, respectively. In particular, in the class model for intermediate- level or higher students, a 21st-century teaching-learning method centered on learners with learners as co-suppliers and instructors as assistants was suggested.
