This paper analyzed the effect of using a content-based English textbook in teaching English to Korean college students. The textbook reflected the recent trend in EFL/ESL development that subject matters should be taught as part of the language instruction. The analysis of the questionnaire survey conducted to college students at the end of the semester revealed an encouraging result that this new type of ELT college textbook is effective in helping Korean college students prepare for learning their subject areas through English. Based on this positive outcome, a suggestion is made that the current general purpose college English teaching curriculum be shifted toward a content-based specific purpose type to accommodate the increasing demand of learning subject areas through English in colleges in Korea.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the correlation between the introduction order of 9 English morphemes in the English textbook used in the middle school and the learning order of the morphemes by the 7th graders learning English as a foreign language. The subjects are 139 students in two middle schools, who learn English with different textbooks. The introduction order of each morpheme in two textbooks was examined according to its quantity and frequency. Data on the real learning order were collected through the written SLOPE test, and each morpheme was ranked by its group score. The introduction order of each morpheme in the textbook and the real learning order were analyzed by Spearman rank order correlation. It was shown that the correlation between the two was very low. This means that those textbooks do not take the learning order of English morphemes into account. Also it was shown that in the earlier stage of learning English the introduction order of each morpheme in the textbook had much influence on its learning order, but in the later stage such influence reduced gradually. This means that the learning order of English morphemes approaches the natural order as time passes by.

본 연구는 특정 학습자를 대상으로 한 영어 디지털 교과서는 사용자를 고려한 디자인이 필요하다는 데서 출발하였으며 사용자는 영어 공교육의 시작 학년으로 구체적 사물의 제시에 의한 인지와 이해가 쉬운 초등학교 3학년 어린이를 대상으로 하였다. 이를 위하여 선호도가 높은 3종 교과서를 중심으로 '크레스의 시각디자인 문법틀[Gunther Kress, 2006]'에 의해 디자인 분석을 시행하였고 그 결과에 의해 수정된 디자인으로 초등학교에서 두 차례의 사례 연구, FGI, 설문, 관찰 분석을 통해 사용자의 특성을 고려한 영어 디지털 교과서 디자인에 의한 교육 효과에 변화가 있는지 실험하였다. 분석 결과 사용자를 고려한 디자인 요소로 수정한 영어 디지털 교과서가 학생들에게 만족도가 높았으며, 어린이들이 흥미를 가지고 수업에 집중하는 것이 관찰 되었다. 한편 사례 연구 결과 사용자에 맞춘 디자인 요소로 영어 디지털 교과서를 기획하는 것이 교육의 선호도 및 효과에 영향을 주는 것이 확인되었다. 본 연구 결과는 향후 초등학교 3학년 어린이를 대상으로 한 영어 디지털 교과서 디자인 기획에 있어서 디지털 교과서만을 위한 체계적인 디자인 가이드와 사용자 연령의 선호도 및 특성을 고려한 디자인 제안이 될 수 있을 것이다.

English textbooks play essential roles in the whole English education context, the analytic study on English textbooks is very important in English education tasks. The purpose of this study is to analyze the expressive functions in the middle school English textbooks on the basis of the 6th national curriculum characteristics and the textbook analysis theories. The results of the expressive language function analysis are as follow: the teaching contents designed for the expressive language functions are not varied, but concentrated on the specific teaching types, and the teaching contents for the expressive language functions are not graded according to the students' development principles stated clearly in the 6th curriculum. The results of the English textbook analysis on the basis of the expressive language function analysis show that the 6th curriculum has some problems in itself and the middle school textbooks do not conform to the 6th curriculum principles. Therefore we need to improve the teaching contents for language functions by means of developing various types of teaching language functions.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether using English newspapers as supplementary teaching materials for the present textbook could increase students' English reading ability, interest in class and their willingness to take an active part in activities. Schools in rural areas, compared to urban schools, did not have the appropriate resources to teach students effectively. Understanding the disadvantages of the students in rural areas, one idea was to use newspapers to inspire the students to reach outside their local community and incorporate new styles of English and cultural aspects into their lives. The participants were 2nd grade high school students in the rural area. The experimental group received reading lessons with the textbook and English newspapers. They were also encouraged to make their own portfolios. The control group received reading lessons with the textbook and other supplementary materials. Before and after the experiment, reading comprehension tests as well as the questionnaires of interest and self-directed learning were administered. The results of this study were as follows: First, students' English reading ability was significantly improved in the experimental class using English newspapers. Second, students' interest and self-directed learning were positively increased in the same class above.

The aim of this study is to propose a systematic way of evaluating competing ELT textbook series. Three stages of evaluation procedures were employed: A sample of two sets of English textbook series for young learners were first analysed by five trained textbook evaluators using a checklist. Second, based on the results of analysis, evaluative discussion was carried out. Third, two independent evaluators conducted impressionistic evaluation on the series. The procedure employed in this materials evaluation process can be adapted in choosing series of textbooks. Since not many studies have dealt the evaluation of textbook series by multiple evaluators, the method presented in this study can be referred to and applied by materials evaluators in other contexts.

최근 첨단기술의 발달과 모바일 인터넷의 사용 증대로 디지털 교과서 개발이 활발해지고 있다. 따라서 본 사례 연구는 2명의 영어 학습자와 교사가 어떻게 디지털 교과서를 통해 학습하고 교수하는지를 관찰과 인터뷰 기법을 통해 탐구했다. 연구 결과 영어 학습자와 교사는 간편하고 다양한 기능과 빠른 인터넷 기반의 디지털 교과서를 통해 교수-학습에 도움을 받은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 디지털 교과서가 제공하는 많은 양의 정보가 오히려 학습자의 학습을 방해하고, 디지털 교과서를 사용하는데 있어서 교사와 학생 모두 기술적인 어려움을 겼었다고 지적했다. 더 효과적인 디지털 교과서 활용을 위해 영어 교사는 언어적 지식과 더불어 기술적 지식을 학습자에게 전달하고 학습자 주도 학습을 위한 가이드 역할을 수행해야 할 것이다.

본 연구는 남북한 영어교과서에 나타난 어휘를 비교하여 영어어휘의 양적 질적인 차이를 알아보고 궁극적으로 남북한 통일 영어교과서에 담을 영어어휘 목록을 만드는데 필요한 기초적인 작업을 진행하는데 있다. 이를 위해 2000년대에 출간된 남북한 영어교과서로 코퍼스를 구축하여 어휘목록을 추출하고 이들 남북한 영어교과서 코퍼스를 비교하였다. 어휘목록의 추출은 남한 영어교과서의 경우는 7차교육과정 이후 출간된 교과서에서 추출하고 북한 영어교과서의 경우는 김정일정권시대인 2000년대 이후 영어교과서로 코퍼스를 구축하고 그 코퍼스에서 어휘목록을 만들어서 비교하였다. 이를 위해서 AntConc 3.5.7을 사용하여 어휘목록을 추출하고 콘코던스를 통해서 어휘목록에 나온 어휘의 사용맥락을 살펴보면서 점검하였다. 이를 통해서 남북한 영어 어휘의 양적 질적 비교를 통해서 그 차이점들을 도출하였다. 양적으로 남북한이 영어교과서를 통해서 학습해야 할 어휘는 양적으로 비슷하게 3000 단어 내외였으나 북한 영어교과서의 경우 전문학술 어휘가 좀 더 많이 나타났다. 자본주의 시장경제를 따르는 남한과 사회주의 계획경제를 따르는 북한 영어교과서에는 이와 관련된 어휘의 사용과 의미적 차이가 발견되었다. 아울러, 종교와 문법 용어의 사용에 있어서 차이가 나타났다.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the recent trends of the development of the English textbooks in EFL situation. The 7th National English Curriculum(NEC) in 2001 which emphasized the curriculum-centered school education have had much influence on the traditional textbook-centered school education in Korea. According to the paradigmatic change of school education, the contents of the English textbooks were changed into the new types of students-centered classroom activities. For students' communicative activities, the English textbooks were developed by two types of syllabuses: process-oriented syllabus and product-oriented syllabus. The 7th NEC includes procedural syllabus and task-based syllabus as well as grammatical- structural syllabus and notional-functional syllabus. In short, unlike the English textbooks in former curriculums, learners' classroom activities and tasks have been emphasized in those to foster their communicative competence.
