Case Studies of Face-to-Face or Online PBL Approach in Teaching Major Courses of Korean Language Studies

This study investigates real cases of operating two core courses, Contrastive Linguistics and Teaching Methods of Understanding Korean by adopting a Problem-Based Learning approach: PBL. The study shows concrete and practical examples of when to begin and end the module including PBL issues, the teaching and learning activities that take place in the module process, the final presentation, and the evaluation plan after the presentation, etc. The research like this is essential at the time when the importance of an education model for reinforcing core competencies and job skills comes to the fore. It is also meaningful in that the study considers developing a PBL problem-solving curriculum out of core courses for educating Korean language teachers. In the situation of universities’ sudden shifting to non-face-to face education policies with the recent impact of COVID-19, it is somewhat difficult to continue problem-based learning methods. This study will also cover some empirical tips to lead learners to self-directed problem-based learning while proceeding the Korean Semantics course non-face-to-face during this semester. The study concludes that learners of PBL subjects will be able to achieve the group’s common goal of cooperating with members and develop skills for better mutual communication by cultivating teamwork competency through actual performance-oriented team activities.
