Most sociocultural researchers have not paid full attention to what classroom writing activities really mean to L2 learners and how these activities relate to learning outcomes from learners’ perspectives. This study explores students' perceptions of writing activities and learning outcomes and the relationships between the activities and the outcomes in an EFL university writing course. A case study methodology was used on the basis of the data collection of students' semester ending learning s

Despite the fact that the Korean nuclear crisis is one of the most protracted security issues in the world, the research analysing the crisis from the perspective of securitisation theory is curiously absent. This article attempts to pin down some distinguishing features of South Korea’s securitisation of the nuclear threat posed by North Korea, thereby investigating why one rarely sees the implications of securitisation theory in the way that the Copenhagen School theorists would suggest. Borro

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of peer review of oral presentations based on students’ perceptions of both receiving and giving peer review. The participants are sixty freshmen in a freshman mandatory English course. Data collection included students’ reflective paragraphs about the peer review activities. The collected data were analyzed based on content analysis according to appropriate categories and response units. The findings reveal that the social interactions sup

This study explores the social meanings and functions of code choices between English and Korean by young Korean children in a Korean community in the U.S. It examines the ways code-switching contributes to the children’s co-construction of their social identities in their social groups. The major data consist of 42 hours of ethnographically collected videotaped interaction among Korean children over the course of four academic semesters in a Korean community in the U.S. Data analysis is qualita

This article aims to uncover the ways in which different, yet closely related, discourses on the Indonesia–Korea e-Government partnerships are constructed and evaluated through the lens of donor–recipient cross narratives. The current frameworks for measuring and evaluating the effects of e-Government have given too much attention to the material dimension, thereby falling short of providing a holistic view of the discourse on the partnerships. To provide analysis that best represents the main d

The purpose of this study is to explore English communicative needs for Korean fire and emergency officials of National Emergency Management Agency. In particular, this study focuses on their English communicative events, situations, and tasks in their work and study settings related to the officials who participated in a master’s course called FEMP (Fire and Emergency Management Program) taught by American professors. A total of 45 students participated in the study. The data sources included p

This paper attempts to examine what kinds of conscious efforts Korean university students in the U.S. make to maximize their opportunities to use English outside of the classroom. The main goals of this study are to explore: 1) what are the most frequently-used functional practice strategies and 2) what are the differences and the relationships between the use of the strategies and background variables. A questionnaire, the Functional Practice Techniques Inventory was administered to fifty one K

The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) is a flagship project of theAfrican Union under Agenda 2063. Although the AfCFTA appears to be aneconomic issue on the surface, it is in essence a security agenda. Through the lensof the securitization framework, this article explores why the AfCFTA needs tobe explained in a wider context of the nexus between security and the economy. After illustrating the traits of the security–economy nexus of Africa, the analysisincorporates security discourse

이 연구는 언어사회화 이론에 근거해 명상 공동체의 정체성을 형성하는 언어 사용의 특징을 고찰하고 이를 토대로 융합 교육의 관점에서 실천적인 함의를 도출하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 연구대상은 위빠사나 Mindfulness, MBSR(Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction), The Power of Now, 홍익학당 사례들에서 명상 지도자와 수행자가 사용하는 언어이다. 이 사례들의 명상 수행에 사용되는 언어를 발췌 또는 전사하고(transcribing) 내용분석(content analysis)을 통해 핵심개념들을 주제별로 분류한 후 그 특징을 대표하는 언어 표현들을 탐구하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 호흡과 통찰 명상에서 반복적으로 드러나는 언어의 특징은 자각의 언어로 알아차림을 유도하는 지각동사와 인지동사를 통한 지시화행(directives), 자신에게 말하는 내적 언어(inner speech), 마음 작용에 이름 붙여 주기(labelling), 및 침묵(silence)

본 연구는 탈냉전기 정체성 확립을 위해 적(敵) 영역의 불확실성을 담론적 차원에서 구축한 미국, 그리고 실존적 차원에서의 불확실성에 직면한 북한의 이야기를 다룬다. 더 정확히는 탈냉전기 미국의 대(對)북한 개념에 대한 분석이다. 탈냉전 30년 미국의 대북담론을 성찰하는 일은 탈냉전의 불확실성을 끝내 극복하지 못한 채 ‘신냉전’을 맞이하는 우리를 살피는 일이다. 본 연구는 안보화 이론을 개념적 기반으로 하여 미국의 대북담론 구조 분석을 진행하고, 조지 H. W. 부시부터 도널드 J. 트럼프 시기까지 대통령 화행 중심의 내용 분석(content analysis)을 토대로 한 담론분석을 전개한다. 미국 최고정책결정자들의 화행을 통시적으로 기록, 분석하여 대북담론의 양태를 파악하고, 시기별 북미관계를 규정하는 주요 사건들을 재고함으로써 안보딜레마를 재생산하는 주류이론 시각에서의 탈피를 시도한다.

This study attempts to explore how twelve Korean in-service EFL teachers applied the theories that they had learned into their classroom practices while participating in their teaching practicum for a TESOL MA program. The major data were derived from the collection of the teachers’ teaching philosophy statements as well as their reflective discussion materials based on their reflective journals. The data were used to examine the beliefs of the teachers and the critical issues addressed in their

Despite the increasing uptake of the term sustainable business model (SBM), the concept has mainly focused on business strategies. However, integrating the SBM into a longer-term and macroscopic framework would make it more sustainable. This article explored the SBM as a national strategy that operates beyond a corporate level. In this respect, the study examined the ways in which cultural and political perceptions of a nation can influence consumers’ choices. This article particularly examined
