This takes into account the fact that most universities conduct classes in 15-week units, but actual classes last about 12 weeks.
『Reading Korean Culture for Korean Language Learners』 is structured as follows for each sub-unit.


First, in the ‘Unit Introduction Activity’ section, ① the title of the sub-unit, ② learning objectives, and ③ a picture to stimulate motivation were presented.
Second, we presented learning text and set up a ‘thinking exercise’ to follow.

By working through these learning challenges with the teacher's assistance during class, learners can develop the ability to understand culturally relevant texts and solve the four types of learning challenges outlined above.
