Methods of Evaluation

  1. Reading, writing, listening and memorizing assignments will be evaluated on the basis of correct usage of more complex/abstract language functions covered in each lesson.
  2. Periodic written tests and written/oral quizzes will be evaluated on the basis of correct usage of more complex/abstract vocabulary, grammar points and listening/speaking skills.
  3. Final exam will be evaluated on the basis of correct usage of vocabulary, language structures needed to produce a more complex/abstract range of information relating to high frequency situations.
  4. Individual, pair and small group oral presentations will be evaluated on the basis of producing comprehensible, more complex sentences about familiar topics to reflect a somewhat consistent command of core vocabulary and language structures.
  5. Oral presentation of cultural topics will be evaluated on the basis of demonstrating an increasingly accurate grasp of social protocols and contributions of Korean-speaking cultures, by analyzing and comparing them to one's own culture.
  6. Observations of individuals, pairs and groups in-class work will be evaluated on the basis of correct usage of more complex and abstract language functions at each class.
