This study aimed to explore how the Korean university students' reading motivation is related to their English (L2) reading behavior. The construct of the students' Korean (L1) and L2 reading motivation was investigated with the data obtained through the questionnaire from 120 sophomore students. A factor analysis was conducted to extract the major factors of motivation and determine the interrelationship among items in the questionnaire. As a result, 6 factors were extracted: Intrinsic Motivation for English Reading, Extrinsic Motivation 1 (Immediate Goal Orientedness), Extrinsic Motivation 2 (Integrative Orientation), Importance of L1 Reading, Intrinsic Motivation toward L1 reading, and Importance of L2 Reading Skill. The interrelatedness between the assessment results on the L2 reading behavior (reading amount, time and speed) and motivation factors was measured by correlation coefficients. It was found that Intrinsic Motivation toward English Reading was significantly related to the students' reading amount and Intrinsic Motivation toward Korean Reading had positive association with the students' reading time with statistical significance. Other factors did not show significant correlation with the students' reading behavior. In addition, the students' reading speed was significantly related to their reading amount as well, while reading time did not affect the speed gain.

This research analyzed the effect of activity-centered reading band on Korean fairy tales on children's reading attitude and comprehension. The reading altitude of the experimental-group children exhibited more meaningful change in such subordinate areas as academic reading attitude. The academic reading attitude of the male experimental-group had higher improvement than that of the female experimental-group. In addition, the reading comprehension scores of the experimental-group children were higher than those of the control-group children. The reading program effects on reading comprehension were more meaningful in girls in the experimental group than boys in the group. Therefore, the results of this study have demonstrated the necessity of the development and application of a Korean fairy tales program for reading and an activity-centered reading program.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the reading habits, reading patterns and reading motivation of 362 college students from the capital area majoring in child development or early childhood education. The main findings of this study were as follows. Firstly, 70 percent of students spent less than three hours a week on reading academic or school-related material, and 75 percent spent less than three hours a week on independent or recreational reading. Students most preferred reading the "cultural" genre and least preferred reading the "human life(spiritual)" genre. The "cultural" and the "human life(spiritual)" genres also represented the most and least frequently read genres, respectively. Secondly, students presented high-level reading patterns, in that they previewed the reading material before reading, understood the meaning of it during reading, and shared their reading experience with others after reading. Thirdly, the average reading motivation levels scored near the midpoint on a five-point scale. Fourthly, students with higher reading motivation levels displayed higher reading frequencies and preference levels for each genre, with the exception of the "fiction and humor" genre. Moreover, students with higher levels of reading motivation received higher ratings for their reading patterns.

The purpose of present study is to investigate children's attitude toward reading, reading method, reading environment, reading volume, and then to compare the results obtained by sex, area and grade. The tool used in this survey was a questionaire designed specially by the investigator. The questionaire was distributed to 1339 children selected at the descretion of the investigator with due consideration of sex, area(large city, medium city and rural community) and grade (from 2nd grade of primary school to 2nd year of middle school). The results of this study are summerized as follows : 1) Regional difference was observed in respect of the followiug : Awareness on reading, motivation for reading, reading method, activity after reading, number of books collected, reading guidance, how to obtain books to read, monthly reading volume, and reading tendency. 2) Also difference by grade was observed in respcet of the following ; Activity after reading, reading guidance, monthly reading volume and reading tendency. The following conclusions have been made based on the results of the survey: 1) The children's attitude toward reading and reading method may be considered favorable while reading environment is not satisfactory yet. Especially, reading environment of school children in medium cities and rural communities is worse than that of large cities. 2) No difference by sex was observed in respect of attitudes toward reading, reading method, reading environment and reading volume while difference by sex was observed in respect of reading tendency. The followings are recommended based on the results of survey: 1) To establish and carry out a comprehensive program for the improvement of reading environment of the school children in medium cities and rural communities. 2) To improve and substantiate school library facilities and design a proper guidance program to have children utilize school library to the maximum extent. 3) To contemplate on the consolidated measures for reading behavior survey.

This paper explored the effects of extensive reading (ER) on Korean university students' L2 reading proficiency and reading rates. This study also illustrated how ER can be integrated into a university English reading class. Seventeen students who took a summer reading course participated in this study. Data were gathered through pre- and post- tests in terms of participants' reading comprehension proficiency and reading rates and post- questionnaire with regard to their attitudes toward L2 storybook reading after they have experienced it. The analysis was carried out using the Paired Samples t-test. It was revealed that ER has a positive effect on the enhancement of the participants' reading comprehension and reading rates. The participants showed their continued intention to read in English and a strong belief that persistent reading in English in the long run will help improve their English. The results of this study confirm the educational values of incorporating ER into university English reading classes. The pedagogical implications for EFL instructors are described.

급격하게 감소하는 중학생들의 독서를 증진시킬 수 있는 학교도서관의 독서 교육 방안을 모색하기 위하여 PISA 2009의 읽기 영역 중 독서 태도와 읽기 성적의 상관관계, 국민독서실태조사 결과, 그리고 독서 태도와 독서 동기 관련 연구들을 검토하였다. 학생들의 읽기 성적은 높지만 독서 태도는 그다지 긍정적이지 않다. 즐거움을 위한 독서가 읽기 성취도와 강한 정적 관계에 있다는 점에서 즐거운 독서를 증진시키 위해서 장서가 풍부한 학교도서관, 스스로 선택한 책을 자유롭게 읽을 수 있는 독서 시간이 보장되어야 하며, 독서를 다른 교육적 목적의 수단으로 강요하는 것을 지양해야 한다. 그리고 학생의 성별, 읽기 능력, 독서에 대한 정의적 인지적 태도, 독서 경험과 독서량, 독서 자료의 유형, 독서 시간 등의 특성에 따라 학생들을 범주화하여 차별화된 독서 프로그램을 제공해야 한다.

이 연구는 국제독서협회에서 제시한 독서교육자 전문성 기준, 언어교육 기준, 읽기 쓰기 평가기준을 살펴보고, 이 기준이 우리 문헌정보학과 도서관의 독서교육에 비추어 어떤 의미를 지니는지 고찰하였다. 국제독서협회는 언어교육의 관점에서 독서교육을 접근하고 있는데, 이 협회는 독서교육자를 7유형으로 구분하여 각 유형별 전문성 기준을 제시하고 있다. 언어교육 기준은 독서를 포함한 언어교육의 내용과 방향을 제시하기 위한 문서이며 독서교육을 계획, 전개, 실천하는 과정에서 참고할 수 있는 기준이다. 그리고 읽기 쓰기 평가기준은 언어평가의 목적과 방법을 규정함으로써 학생의 독서수준을 평가할 수 있는 근거를 제공하고 있다. 이 기준들이 우리 상황에서 지니는 의미는, 독서교육자 기준은 독서교육자의 범위를 명확하게 규정하고, 이들에게 책무성을 강화시키며, 양성과정을 정비할 수 있는 도구로 활용될 수 있다. 언어교육 기준은 일관된 독서교육을 실천하고 구체적 교육방법을 구상하는 지침으로 활용할 수 있으며, 읽기 쓰기 평가기준은 독서능력을 측정하고 대상자의 수준에 맞는 독서교육을 실시하는데 중요한 의미를 지닌다.

독서교육에 관한 최근의 연구에 의하면 독립적인 기능 중심의 교육보다는 독서전략을 중심으로 지도해야 한다는 주장이 폭넓게 수용되고 있다. 독서전략은 독자가 능숙하게 독서를 하는데 동원하거나 지도교사가 효과적인 독자가 될 수 있도록 지도하는 방법이나 의도적인 계획을 말한다. 그동안 학교도서관에서 제공하는 독서교육 프로그램은 독서촉진 혹은 행사에 치중해 왔다. 따라서 학교도서관에서 제공하는 독서교육은 독서촉진이나 행사보다는 독서전략 중심의 교육으로 전환할 필요가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 텍스트 종류, 텍스트의 구조, 독서의 과정, 인지전략 등 4개의 요소로 구분하여 독서교육에 필요한 독서전략을 범주화하였다.
