A Case Study of Korean Writing Education using online messenger based on genre-based teaching approach

This study aims to present a case study of Korean Writing Education using online messenger for Chinese intermediate learners. Communication competence means how properly a language can be used in the context in which it is used. It also points to a genre-based teaching approach which emphasizes the socio-cultural situation and context and values the efficient communication within the discourse community. Meanwhile, language education using digital technology which can handle and share various information is becoming increasingly common. In particular, WeChat, which has the largest number of users in China, is also desirable to use it as a learning space. Therefore, this study attempted to present a case study Korean Writing Education based on genre-based teaching approach using WeChat for 15 college students from T University in China. The instructional model was presented by referring to and reconstructing Feez(1998) and Park Eun-sun(2014) and dividing it into four stages: context setting, model text analysis, co-construction, and independent composition. As a result, the students showed a satisfactory response overall but there were also negative opinions such as lack of time and low participation of students in the evaluation. Therefore, it is hoped that an efficient teaching method will be prepared to overcome these limitations in the future.
