This study analyzed a total of 37 studies about bi-lingulism and English education as a foreign language published in 8 academic journals in early childhood education or child development fields. Research topics, participants, methods, and variables in the studies were categorized and descriptively analyzed. The research findings which had been statistically investigated were also summarized. The most frequently studied research topics were children's development and English education program exposure, actual conditions of English education in preschool settings and effectiveness of specific English programs for preschool children. However, children's home characteristics were seldom included as research variables and no research investigated so called English preschools. Several studies reported that bi-lingual children may have different language development paths from mono-lingual children but they eventually have comparable language abilities to mono-lingual children. Also some studies reported that, when learning English as a foreign language in school settings, older children can handle more information regarding English than younger children, resulting in better outcomes of older children. Exposure to two languages in early childhood seems to contribute to young children's meta linguistic awareness but the long term effect of English education in early childhood should be further studied. Several English education programs for preschool settings were developed and the effectiveness were investigated. Even though most of them reported that their programs were effective to children's English ability or interests, the results should be carefully interpreted because their research designs and methods were not rigorous.

한국 사회는 빠르게 다문화 사회로 진입되고 있어 인구 구성과 집단이 다양해 질것으로 전망하고 있다. 다양한 형태의 가족 중 중도입국 청소년들의 비율이 점점 증가하고 있다. 대부분의 중도입국 청소년들은 준비가 전혀 이루어진 않은 상태에서 우리나라에 입국하는 실정이므로 언어장벽에서 진로장벽에 이르기 까지 매우 취약한 여건과 불안정한 환경에 처해 있는 것이다. 이를 해결하는 방안으로 국가나 지방자치단체는 물론 각급 교육기관에서 다양한 프로그램으로 서비스가 지원되고 있으나 사업 간의 중복성과 일부 비효율적인 전달체계와 운영, 예산과 인력 낭비로 인하여 효과성을 낮추는 경향이 있다. 본 논문에서는 중도입국 청소년들의 발달주기, 학령주기, 한국어 구사 능력에 따라 개인의 능력에 따른 맞춤형 언어교육으로 올바르게 성장하도록 도움을 주는 방안을 제시한다. 제시한 내용은 이중언어 교육방법과 발도르프 교육 프로그램을 준용한 교수-학습 방안이다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze research trends of bilingual education which are focused on foreigner parent's language education for children from multicultural families in South Korea. After searching, total 36 research papers were selected and analyzed. Results from this study showed that, (1) relevant researches started from 2009, later then the number of researches kept about 4-6 yearly and reached the peak of 11 (31%) in 2004; (2) a large majority (75%) of the analyzed researches published in the magazines relative to a field of language education or children education; (3) diverse research methods were employed, and the number of researches applied on qualitative research methods is similar with on quantitative ; (4) the researches mainly studied on the members of multicultural families (67%), and 10 analyzed researches investigated parents and children together 28%, and 9 targeted on parents or one of them (25%), and 5 just on the children from multicultural families (14%). and, (5) The research topics mainly divided into four fields current bilingual education programs (31%), bilingual education (31%), interaction related to bilingual education (22%), suggestion on policy improvement(17%). Based on the results, discussions and implications for further research and practice on bilingual education and foreigner parent's language education will be provided.

최근 자연 언어 처리 분야에서는 단어를 실수벡터로 임베딩하는 워드 임베딩(Word embedding) 기술이 많은 각광을 받고 있다. 최근에는 서로 다른 두 언어를 이용한 이중 언어 위드 임베딩(Bilingual word embedding) 방법을 사용하는 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있는데, 이중 언어 워드 임베딩에서 임베딩 절과의 질은 학습하는 코퍼스의 정렬방식에 따라 많은 영향을 받는다. 본 논문은 자막 병렬 코퍼스를 이용하여 밑바탕 어휘집(Seed lexicon)을 구축하여 번역 연결 강도를 향상시키고, 이중 언어 워드 임베딩의 사천(Vocabulary) 확장을 위한 언어별 연결 함수(Language-specific mapping function)을 학습하는 새로운 방식의 모델을 제안한다. 제안한 모델은 기존 모델과의 성능비교에서 비교할만한 수준의 결과를 얻었다.

This study investigated results of bilingual learning of mathematics in teaching quadratic functions at an international high school in South Korea. Unlike a Korean traditional public school, this international school has provided bilingual learning. 10th grade students enrolled two math classes, Algebra II that was taught in English through CCSS and High School Mathematics I that was taught in Korean through the Korean National Math Curriculum. In order to collect information on students' behaviors and math achievement, we analyzed students' academic back grounds, mathematical abilities, results of interviews, observations, questionnaires and assessments. The results of this study include specific benefits. Bilingual learning of mathematics is effective as a method to improve Korean students' mathematical abilities and attitudes as well as positive influence on Korean mathematics education.

This research examines mutual culture education in accordance with Germany's immigrant social integration policy by analyzing the National European School in Berlin. In this regard, the curricula of Joan-Miró elementary school and Finow elementary school are analyzed. Germany maintains a multicultural policy which enables immigrants to maintain their native language and identity and simultaneously integrate them into the German society. In short, maintenance of immigrants' mother tongue and immigrant students' acquisition of the German language is the core of Germany's social integration policy. The National European School in Berlin is a public school established for the sake of an educational environment in which students can not only build up language capacity, but also create a culturally mutual environment for multicultural students. The school's educational objective is mutual culture education which can integrate and maintain the cultural identity and language of multicultural students. Joan-Miró elementary school encourages mutual cultural ability and bilingual ability while preparing students for the future intelligent society, leading their independent life and self-initiated learning. Finow elementary school encourages mutual culture ability, language capacity and directional capability apart from the basic capacities that can reinforce students to become citizens in demand of the future intellectual society. Korean foreign language education needs to be practically diversified as in the case of the Germany's National European school. Also, improvement of educational environment such as students' bilingual ability, students' ability development regarding their individual characteristics, and the capability of mutual culture understanding are issues that should be urgently treated.

기존의 이중언어정보 처리 모형을 기억 모형과 상호 작용 모형으로 나누고 기억모형은 다시 발달적 관점을 지닌 모형과 개념 표상과의 관계 구조에 촛점을 둔 모형으로 분류하여 개관하였다. 이중 언어 정보 처리 과정에 관한 이상적인 모형은 심성 어휘집의 관계 구조. 언어이해와 산출의 자동성, 두 언어 체계간의 작용에 관하여 설명할 수 있어야 한다. 이러한 관점에서 지금까지 개관된 모형을 비판하였다. 일부 모형에서는 위의 가정들을 언급하고 있으나 대부분의 모형들이 각각의 가정을 체계적으로 반영하고 있지 않았다. 비판점들을 보완하여 한국인에게 적합한 외국어 교육 프로그램을 개발하고 한국어-영어 번역시스템의 효과적인 운용과 일반적인 언어 정보 처리 기제에 대한 이해를 돕기 위한 새로운 이중 언어 모형을 제안하였다.
