  • College going students who are non-native speakers of English enrolled in English language programmes are not acquiring the needed academic writing skills. Many of these students do not have positive attitudes towards writing, thus forcing language instructors to look for ways of motivating students to write in order to improve writing skills. This action research project investigates the use of portfolio writing to improve writing ability among pre-university students. Research on the use of portfolio writing suggests that it is a useful way for developing interest in writing and for developing effective writing skills over a period of time. Portfolios support the best thinking in composition pedagogy in that it encourages process writing. Although the portfolio is considered a writing product, as a whole it is evidence of the students writing process. An important feature in using portfolios is that students are able to focus on their writing without constantly worrying about grades. Instructors have noticed that students make greater improvement in their writing when their focus is shifted from punitive feedback through letter grades to constructive feedback in the form of suggestions for further revision. This paper describes the use of writing portfolios as an effective means of teaching writing. The findings revealed that writing portfolios helped develop confidence in writing and decreased anxiety towards writing. (217 words)

  • 이 연구는 대학생들의 글쓰기에 대한 인식을 분석하고 글쓰기 교육의 개선 방안을 찾고자 J대학 학생들을 대상으로 글쓰기 학습 내용, 글쓰기 자기 능력 평가, 글쓰기 능력에 대한 인식, 글쓰기 교육 방향에 대한 인식 등을 설문하여 조사·분석하였다. 이를 통해 글쓰기 교육의 운영 개선 방안에 대해 논의하였다. 대학생들의 인식을 조사·분석한 결과 대학생들은 글쓰기 능력을 중요하게 인식하고 있으며, 이론 수업보다는 실제 글을 써보고 피드백을 받는 실제적인 글쓰기 수업을 원하였다. 또한 글의 내용을 구성하고 전개해가는 부분에 대한 능력을 키우고 싶은 것으로 나타났다. 글쓰기 교육이 대학생들에게 실질적인 역량이 될 수 있도록 하기 위해서는 이론 강의도 중요하지만 실질적으로 글을 써볼 수 있는 충분한 시간과 기회를 부여해야 하며, 전공 맞춤형 실무글쓰기의 개발이 필요하다. 또한 다양한 수업 방식을 통해 학생들이 참여할 수 있는 글쓰기 수업이 되도록 해야하며, 대학 졸업 인증 요건 등의 방법을 통해 졸업 후 사회에 진출해서도 글쓰기 능력이 실무역량으로 이어질 수 있도록 해야 한다. 이 연구는 글쓰기와 관련한 대학생들의 인식을 통해 대학 글쓰기 교육의 방향을 모색해 볼 수 있다는데 의의가 있다고 하겠다.

  • 대학수학 학습에서 성공하기 위한 중요한 요인 중의 하나는 학생들에게 강력한 학습동기를 부여하는 것이다. 여기서는 글쓰기 과제가 수학 학습의 동기를 불러일으키고 학생들의 학습태도를 어떻게 변화시킬 수 있는가를 알아보려고 한다. 수업시간에 일어난 또는 의논된, 강의된 내용 중에서 두, 세 개의 가장 중요하다고 여겨지는 주제를 골라 학생들이 보고 느낀 대로 요약하여 친구나 가족 또는 보내고 싶은 사람에게 편지를 쓰도록 하고 편지쓰기 반응과 편지쓰기 결과를 분석하여 편지쓰기 시도가 수학의 저변확대와 수학학습 태도의 긍정적인 변화를 불러오고 나아가 학습능력 향상에 도움을 주는지 알아보고 더 나은 방법을 찾아본다.

  • With the development of AI, multimedia tools in education offer personalized learning environments, which foster individual competencies. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of smart education as perceived by learners through a case study of university writing classes utilizing multimedia learning tools, and to explore potential applications. To achieve this, a writing course incorporating various multimedia tools to promote interaction was designed and implemented over the course of one semester, targeting 42 university students. Through the semester, student reactions and survey results were analyzed to investigate the effects and satisfaction levels regarding the use of multimedia learning tools in writing instruction as perceived by students. The analysis revealed that multimedia-assisted writing classes effectively fostered learners' autonomy by focusing on individual needs, while also promoting interaction and encouraging spontaneous participation. Students reported recognizing the presence of diverse perspectives by comparing and communicating about each other's writing, leading to an expansion of their own thinking. In using ChatGPT, it was found that students attempted to refine their questions until they obtained the desired answers. They reported that this process deepened their understanding of the essence of the questions. These benefits led to results of high levels of students' active class engagement and satisfaction. This study contributes foundational and empirical data regarding the effectiveness and potential applications of learner-centered smart education as part of fourth industrial revolution integration research.

The different stages of writing amongst young children was divided into an early stage of writing for pre-schoolers and creative writing for spontaneous expression and problem solving. The subjects comprised 36 children aged 5 from a child daycare center in Seoul. Among the KISE-BAAT and Creative tests, the writing test and creative writing test were used. The early stage of writing and creative writing were both analyzed by means of both ANCOVA and T-test. Firstly, in the subscale of the early stage of writing(ability to mark, use vocabulary, create sentences and text construction), the early stage writing of the experiment group scored higher than that of the comparison group. Secondly, in terms of the type of picture books, the group using informational picture books had greater effects on the early stage of writing than the group using narrative picture books. Thirdly, the writing program itself had a positive effect on creative writing. In the subscale of creative writing (fluency, flexibility, novelty), the group using informational picture books made greater progress in fluency and novelty than the group using narrative picture books.

  • This paper emphasizes writing education for engineering students should be communication driven writing education based on KEC2005. Communication driven writing for engineering students is essentially same as Technical Writing(TW) developed on the basis of ABET. Considering the current writing capability of engineering students and social need for various types of writing, TW education should be divided into two courses: basic and advanced. This paper deals with contents of a basic TW course in Myongji University, as a model case of a basic TW course for engineering students. It underlines various methods of prewriting that should be stressed and practiced in the TW class, because the prewriting step in the writing process determines the overall direction and structure of an essay. In particular, this paper introduces Power Writing(PW) which uses the structure of a paragraph as a means for providing building-blocks for the essay, employing logic, and ordering information arrangement in a paragraph. This paper also deals with important guidelines about sentence structure and word selection and proposes various applications of TW such as resume, interview, proposal, report, and presentation as a latter part of the basic course. Finally this paper highlights the etics of writing, such as plagiarism and the basic principles of quotation.
