  • 최근 2018 동계올림픽을 비롯하여 동계 스포츠의 국제화에 대한 관심이 많고 특히 우리나라에서 강세를 보이는 빙상의 경우, 빙상 지도자의 영어 의사소통 능력이 특히 요구된다. 본 연구는 빙상 영어 수업에 대한 자기 인식 조사와 직무 분석을 실시하고 이에 대한 분석을 바탕으로 단기간에 효과적인 빙상 영어 수업을 제공할 수 있는 방법 제안을 제안하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 빙상 지도자 27명이 설문에 응하였다. 설문에 응한 빙상 지도자들은 대부분 본인의 영어 실력에 자신감이 없는 것으로 나타났고, 빙상 지도자들을 위한 영어 수업이 필요하다고 생각하고 있었으며, 빙상 지도자들을 위한 영어 수업은 말하기나 듣기에 초점을 둔 다양한 활동 중심의 수업을 원하였다. 이후 DACUM 위원회를 구성하여 영어가 필요한 직무들을 선정한 후 난이도와 필요 기능을 평가하였고, 빙상 지도자들을 대상으로 설문조사를 하였다. 빙상 지도자들의 직무별 영어 교육 필요성에 대한 설문 결과를 보면, '국제대회에서의 심판이나 의사소통,' '외국인 스키어들과 대화/정보교류,' '기술지도' 임무에서 가장 많은 영어가 필요하다고 생각하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Although English is one of the most crucial parts in international business transaction it has not been treated as one of academical sciences. As English is a main language when the international business transaction is done International Business English should be studied by scholars who majored in international business area. It is true that there has been no study at all regarding International Business English(in this article, it does not mean General International Business English) so far. Anyone who does and learn the international business should have some opportunities to have a contact towards international business correspondence and other documents before they do in reality. However, in Korea, most English education has been focused on general English and English certificate tests at universities. At universities' level, it is certainly a scholars' task to study International Business English education in order to provide decent education to the students. For doing so, this article examine, focusing only on reading part, how International Business English should be taught and especially, how reading skills should be activated and integrated with other language skills. This objective will be fulfilled by asking, what reading means in International Business English, as well as what role reading plays in International Business English education.

  • The purpose of the present study is to develop several types of English teaching/learning models in view of cross-curricular approach in Korean elementary school. Brewster(1992)' model is suitable for younger children as well as the 1st or 2nd graders. For 3rd or 4th graders, Halliwel1(1997)' model seems more proper type in Korean EFL situation.

Many studies has recently focused the characteristics of elementary students by cognitive and psychological perspectives. Among them, Park(1996)'s research talks about the elementary school students. Han(1996)'s research based on the notion of applied to other subjects. Kim(1999)'s also emphasized the importance of linking other subjects.
