The purpose of this research is to investigate how an elementary English class is presented in terms of communicative properties using COLT and TALOS because previous studies mainly used COLT. A lack of TALOS has shown on the previous studies. Also, this study takes a close look into whether the English class is communicative or not communicative since previous studies criticized in that elementary English classes are not communicative. For the purposes of this research, COLT part B and TALOS low-inference were used to analyze one elementary English class which had won the grand prize at English class contest. The result of this study revealed that the class is communicative in terms of high quantity and quality of students utterances, high ratio of students' discourse initiation, students' unpredictable information giving utterances and extension of utterances. Findings from this study revealed the good elementary English class characteristics of this class: students' participation, focus on affective atmosphere, students-directed activities, and unconscious internalization of target expressions through repetition.

효과적으로 외국어 교육을 하려면 학습자가 지속적으로 흥미를 갖고 수업에 임하게 하고 이미 학습한 내용을 자연스럽게 직접 사용해 봄으로써 강화할 수 있도록 유도하여야 한다. 노래와 첸트, 게임은 특히 초등학교 영어교육시 중점적으로 사용하고 있는데 보다 많은 교육효과를 내기 위해서는 이들을 보다 체계적인 방법으로 활용할 필요가 있다. 이에 본 워크샵에서는 초등학교 어린이를 대상으로 영어에 대한 흥미를 북돋우면서 효과적으로 영어발음을 지도하기 위하여 어린이들에게 맞는 영어노래와 게임을 사용하는 방법 즉 노래와 게임을 이용한 학습목표 세우기, 노래 및 게임 고르기, 노래와 게임 소개하기, 여러 가지 수업활동과 접목시키는 방법 둥을 소개하고 한국인 초등학교 영어교사들을 위해 노래와 게임을 지도할 때 사용함으로써 자연스럽게 어린이들의 영어듣기 및 말하기 능력을 신장시키는 데 필요한 영어표현을 소개한다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of English integrated instruction on the 6th grade Korean elementary students' English ability using science animation. Twenty-seven students took English integrated instruction before their regular class for 10 minutes while the other students took review activity instead of it. At first, the students were asked to take the sixth grade diagnostic evaluation sponsored by C office of education in 2018 as the pre-test and ten months later, they were asked to take the first grade diagnostic evaluation of middle school sponsored by C office of education in 2017 as the post-test. Results of the study showed that the English ability and the affective attitude of the students taking English integrated instruction were improved. These results suggest that English integrated instruction can contribute to the improvement of Korean elementary students' English ability.

This study suggests the effectiveness of G-learning English afterschool classes implemented to elementary school students at low achievement level in English. These days, the use of games in teaching and learning, known as G-learning, has gradually expanded, so it is necessary to consider how to adapt G-learning generally in English education. A G-learning afterschool English class was implemented to 23 low-level 5th grade students in an elementary school located in Daejon for 12 weeks. This study set two hypotheses aiming to determine the effectiveness in achievement and affectiveness of the participants. Pre and post achievement tests were conducted. Also, survey and FGI (focused group interview) were carried out twice with the participants. The study found that students' spelling awareness, vocabulary recognition and dialogue comprehension ability (hypothesis 1) were all improved with statistical significance. Moreover, after the class, participants' confidence and interest toward English study showed meaningful increases.

Pre-service teachers have established and developed their own teaching strategies and professional language teaching skills based on their pedagogical and learning experiences. In this regard, it is conceivable that pre-service teachers' feedback may have distinct viewpoints and focuses. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze pre-service teachers' feedback to microteaching demonstrations. Participants in the study were 40 prospective elementary school teachers. They were invited to offer feedback on microteachings video-recorded by their peers. According to the findings, we identified a total of 708 comments. The majority of feedback was categorized as teacher talk(40.1%) , followed by teaching and learning activity (20.9%), interaction (12.6%), teaching materials (11.4%), classroom atmosphere and learning environment (8.9%), lesson flow (3.7%), review and evaluation (1.3%), and introduction and objectives (1.1%). The most frequent types of feedback were the teacher's use of appropriate speaking rate, tone, and intonation. This finding reflects the fact that English teachers realize the importance of the teacher's English proficiency, therefore we suggest that teacher education institutions need raise awareness not just of teachers' English skills but also of their diverse perspectives.

This study aims to investigate how learning materials are used in an outstanding English class and to analyze learning materials and their use in primary English classroom activities. To this end, An Analytic Scheme of Learning Materials Use (ASLMU) is used to quantify utilization patterns of learning materials. The findings are: Learning materials are most actively used in the development period, followed by introduction and consolidation. The teacher's rate of using learning materials is much higher than student's, and the rate of using materials for whole students is higher than the rate of using materials for an individual or groups. It requires developing learning materials toward more a student-centered class because the teacher's occupancy of the learning materials is fourfold compared to the student's occupancy. Also, non-language materials are used more than language materials, and English materials are used more than Korean materials. Most of the materials are used to present a question and explain. The findings of the study are expected to suggest features of learning materials in an outstanding English class and application method of learning materials to primary English teachers.

이 연구는 자기조절학습전략 활용 과제기반언어학습을 영어수업에 적용한 후 학업성취도와 영어 학습태도 차원에서 그 효과성을 규명하고자 하였다. 먼저 학습자의 능동적인 학습과정을 도울 수 있는 자기조절학습전략 활용 과제기반언어 교수 학습 모형을 도출하였다. 이어서 초등영어 5학년 정규교육과정운영 틀에서 자기조절학습전략 활용 과제기반언어학습 수업을 설계하고 실제 적용하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 자기조절학습전략 활용 과제기반언어학습은 학업성취 상위, 중위, 하위 집단에 따른 학업성취도 변화에 대한 분석 결과 학업성취 상위집단과 하위집단 간에 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 둘째, 자기조절학습전략 활용 과제기반언 어학습은 영어에 대한 자아개념, 영어에 대한 태도, 영어에 대한 학습 습관으로 정의된 영어 학습태도의 모든 영역에서 유의미한 차이가 있었다. 자기조절학습전략 활용 과제기반언어학습은 학습자 중심 교육이라는 초등영어교육 추세를 고려할 때 교육현장에 유용하므로 자기조절학습력과 실제적 의사소통능력에 초점을 둔 보다 다양한 교수설계 연구가 요청된다.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of caption-embedded video on character recognition and vocabulary ability of the primary school students, The subjects of this study were the students in two elementary schools in G city, Jeonbuk province. They were divided into two groups including a control group which used utilization video materials without captions, and a experimental group which used utilization video materials with captions. Each group was tested over the course of two months (10 classes). And then a statistical analysis was conducted to find out the effects of captions on character recognition and vocabulary ability through independent samples t-test and paired samples t-test. There were no significant differences in a comparison between the groups, but significant differences were found within the groups. Pedagogical implications based on the research findings and suggestions for further research were also discussed.

The purpose of this study is to explore any effects of primary English language learners' affective factors and satisfaction through AI-based speaking activity. In order to answer these questions, a total number of 46 ELLs from a public elementary school participated in this research. Survey questionnaire on affective factors and learning satisfaction were distributed and the results were analyzed quantitatively. The findings are as follows. First, participants could expand their knowledge on AI-based activity towards its educational advantages and capability. Second, overall affective factors of the participants on AI-based activity changed positively, with the improvement of the mean score. The paired samples t-test showed that there was a significant difference among interest, value and attitude. Third, the satisfaction degree on AI-based learning escalated, particularly in the sense of efficacy, academic achievement and involvement. Lastly, it was revealed that the satisfaction degree was correlated with learners' self-confidence, interest and attitude.
