Level 4 Korean B

Course Description

This is a four credit course designed for those who have completed KOR 403 (Level Four Korean A) or the equivalent. As a continuation of KOR 403, the course aims to further develop students' proficiency in all four language skills. Students will explore a wide range of topics on Korean popular culture and issues in Korean society for content-based language learning throughout the semester to improve all aspects of proficiency for an advanced/near-superior level. Students will learn and practice via structured and authentic materials such as newspaper articles, essays, TV programs, movies, etc. The majority of reading and writing assignments will be done outside class, helping students become more independent in studying Korean. Students will be introduced to appropriate resources such as dictionaries, reference books, online dictionaries and other online resources depending on their individual needs. Class time will be used mainly for discussions of content, feedback on writing and presentations by students. This course will help students further advance their writing and speaking skills by continuously building their vocabulary, understanding the target culture, and its social issues through various sources of structured and authentic materials.
