  • This paper is a comparative study of English loans in Russian and Swahili. In the twenty first century, due to the advantage of English as a global language, a language of technology and business, it has had contact with many languages of the world and has become a major source of loans to many languages. Though very different from each other, both Russian and Swahili currently have English as their main source of loanwords. This study reports the extensive adaptation of English loans by Russian and Swahili and examines how these loan items are assimilated into the two languages. It concludes that besides the adaption of pure English loans they have both employed other strategies such as loan translations, semantic extensions and loanblends for vocabulary expansion.

  • In Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language, phoneme-based pronunciation teaching such as tone, consonants, vowels is the most common teaching methods. Based on main character of Chinese grammar: 'lack of morphological change' in a narrow sense, was proposed by Lv Shuxiang and Zhu Dexi, I designed 'Communicative oriented Chinese pronunciation teaching method'. This teaching method is composed of seven elements: one kind is the 'structural elements': phoneme, word, phrase, sentence; another kind is the 'functional elements': listening, speaking and translation. This pronunciation teaching method has four kinds of practice methods: 1) phoneme learning method; 2) word based pronunciation practice; 3) phrase based pronunciation practice; 4) sentence based pronunciation practice. When the teachers use these practice methods, they can use the dialogue and Korean-Chinese translation. In particular, when the teachers use 'phoneme learning method', they must use Korean and Chinese phonetic comparison results. When the teachers try to correct learner's errors, they must first consider the speech communication.

The letters to the parents used in elementary schools were analysed through genre analysis specifically for this study. At first, the Korean language textbooks for married female immigrants were investigated to see how many letters to parents were included in them. Second, letters to parents were collected to research their structure and content. They were categorized by the text type according to functions and speech acts. It is expected that the results of this study will be helpful for the Korean language education of married female immigrants.

  • This case study explored the potential for implementing content-based English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction in a Korean middle school facilitated by computer-mediated communication (CMC). The instructor scaffolded the student participant's language learning online, helping her to produce English output on her own. While experimental social studies lessons on the topic of stereotyping were taught, data were collected on the student's online exchanges with her counterpart in Iran about their respective cultures. Findings show that the student from Korea was able to better understand her own culture as a result of the online experience. This interaction and the in-class lessons have demonstrated that content-based EFL instruction is a viable alternative to the school's existing curriculum.

  • The purpose of this study was to find the existential meanings of the culturally marginalized community organization. Based on the findings, the study examined the issues related to operating the organization and found the ways of helping such organization through service learning programs. For the study, the researcher chose the Korean school of Knoxville in the USA as a service community organization. This study used a qualitative method using narrative construction in the nature of the text shapes with first-person point of views. The research findings were discussed based on the observations and participation in the organization. The study found that the Korean school plays a role as a cultural liaison connecting the Korean culture to other cultures while enabling students to critically accept their native systems, values, and customs through understanding of their native language. However, problems were found in operating the school due to the lack of skills and knowledge of the school administration. Suggestions were made and implemented to the school in order to improve the performance of the school.

  • Modern organizations, both complicated and complex, operate in an economic climate of· turbulence and rapid change. And Today's healthcare environment is changing, driven by demographic, environmental. social, political and technological forces. In actual practice, the organization usually depend on several factors such as economic state of organization, managerial strategies, a synthesis of several theories that reflect individual biases, specific circumstances, and practical realities. These rapidly changing healthcare environment and professional nursing practice need a strategy for the organizational development and goal attainment. An understanding of organizational culture could help managers enhance or expand their management strategy, thus increasing the probability of their success in the organization. Organizational culture is an abstract, yet potent managerial concept. With roots in several disciplines, several perspectives and definitions of organizational culture have emerged. The concept of organizational culture has been rapidly introduced into the academic and organizational world, with the much attention to the excellent companies that have continued rapid grow th despite the overall world economic recession in the late of 1970s. Organizational culture is the combination of the symbols, language, assumptions, and behaviors that overtly manifest an organization's norm and values. It is the taken-for-granted and shared meanings people assign to their social surroundings that can have a profound effect on an organizaitonal decision making and performance. For attaining a organizational goal and developing organization, it is necessary to put emphasis on developing organizational culture. It has to set organizational culture well understood by its members as an instrument to achieve the organizational goals. Both Manager and staff can focus and act on the values identified.

  • 본 연구에서는 한국 영화 <방가?방가!>, <완득이>를 통해서 얻은 외국인에 대한 한국인의 다문화 수용 양상과 언어와 사회와의 관계를 살펴보았다. 그리고 한국 다문화 가정 속의 언어형태에 대해서 결혼이주민 여성을 대상으로 설문 조사했다. 그 내용과 결과를 정리하면 다음과 같다. (1) 한국인의 다문화 수용 양상은 서로 간의 이해관계가 없는 경우 다소 긍정적이라는 점. (2) 외국인이 쉽게 언어를 접하고 습득할 수 있는 방법은 그 사회와 문화에 있다는점. 외국인 근로자들이 사회 속에서 속어나 은어와 같은 위상 (位相) 언어를 사용하고 있다는 점은 언어와 특정 사회의 관계를 보여 주는 단적인 예라고 볼 수 있다. (3) 한국 다문화 가정 속의 언어형태는 주로 한국어로 사용되지만, "1 언어사용자(monolingual)"와의 원활한 의사소통을 위해 두 개의 언어를 동시에 사용하고 있다는 점이다. 이것을 "2 언어 사용(bilingualism)"이라고 하는데, 본 연구 결과에서는 "청해형 2 언어 사용"의 언어형태를 보이고 있다고 판단된다. 앞으로는 국제화 시대에 향후 한국 사회도 다문화 수용성 개선을 위해서는 다문화 관련 콘텐츠 개발과 의사소통에 국한 시키는 한국어 교육이 아닌 다문화 가정을 위한 "2 언어 사용(bilingualism)" 교육 프로그램 개발이 시급하다고 생각된다.

  • AR/VR 기술을 활용한 어학교육을 위한 콘텐츠 개발은 5G 상용화에 맞추어 필연적으로 추진해야할 과제이며, 이를 체계적으로 관리하고 서비스를 위한 서비스 플랫폼에 대한 연구는 현재 글로벌 기업들이 경쟁적으로 참여하고 있으나, 아시아 문화권의 독특한 영역에 대한 독창적인 언어교육 서비스 모델은 한국과 중국이 공동협력으로 연구개발을 추진해야할 당위성을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기 개발된 "이러닝 기반의 중국인을 위한 한국어교육 서비스 플랫폼"을 AR/VR 콘텐츠의 수용이 가능하도록 개선하여 적용하고, 동영상 기반의 어학교육 콘텐츠를 AR/VR 기술을 적용하여 상호작용이 가능하도록 콘텐츠를 구성하여 어학교육의 새로운 패러다임을 제시하고자 한다. 콘텐츠의 개발은 AR 기반의 단어학습이 가능한 서비스를 완성하고, VR기반의 단계별 상황에 맞는 체험학습 콘텐츠를 개발하여 초급/중급/고급에 이르는 어학교육 서비스가 가능하도록 단계적으로 콘텐츠를 개발한다. 서비스 플랫폼은 학습관리와 학습 콘텐츠에 대한 관리가 가능하도록 하며, 메타데이터 속성을 보완하여 대용량 AR/VR 콘텐츠의 수용이 가능한 플랫폼을 완성하도록 한다. 향후 혼합현실 기술이 적용된 다양한 콘텐츠 개발을 통하여 교육서비스 포탈로서 발전이 가능하도록 체계적인 연구를 수행하도록 한다.
