Description
Book Introduction
A book that introduces practical methods to improve students' literacy skills during class time.
The author defines literacy as the "problem-solving ability" to achieve what one wants by using writing and speech, and presents literacy and expressive tools that can help students improve their problem-solving abilities.
It includes basic concepts, usage methods, curriculum application examples, and activity sheets for each tool so that anyone can easily understand and use it.
Teachers who are considering ways to develop students' reading, thinking, and expressing skills can apply this method to their classes without any burden.
If you are a teacher who wants to help your students grow into "independent learners," I encourage you to put the various methods presented in this book into practice as appropriate for your situation.

Into the book
Rather than waiting for a perfect lesson, if you boldly challenge yourself and have students read and write in connection with the subject, you will see more students reading and learning well.

---From the "Preface"

Rather than waiting for students to develop the ability to read and express themselves, we should teach them a lot of material during class time so that they can read systematically.

---From "Directions for Literacy Instruction for Subject Learning"

What's the best way to help students interact with text? Show them that there's an intersection between them and the text.
Idea generation activities that provide tools to recall prior experiences and background knowledge can help students make connections between the text and themselves.

---From "Thinking Literacy: Forming Ideas"

What is a meaningful speaking activity? It involves a teacher posing an open-ended question to students, who then seek out information to answer that question and express it in a contextually appropriate way.
Rather than focusing on right or wrong answers, students should be able to reveal their thought processes through activities that involve finding and synthesizing information.

---From "The expressive power of popular kids who listen well and speak well"

Regardless of what you read, asking yourself the question, "What can I do with this text?" will help you read actively.
The more we encourage and expose students to expressive activities—drawing lines, writing, scribbling, creating, and exploring the utility of text—the better prepared they will be for the future.
---From "The creative expression that turns what you read into your knowledge"

Publisher's Review
I took notes while reading the book.
I have written down on one side the materials I would like to receive from Teacher Jeon Bo-ra, such as leaflet class materials, a consonant chart template to improve vocabulary, and Wikipedia writing class materials.
There were more than 20 of them.
As I closed the book, I realized something more important than the material.
The detailed and professional explanations provided by the school library on everything from preparing literacy classes to assessing them, both big and small, were a source of encouragement for me.
"I could also teach literacy classes in conjunction with the curriculum!" said Hwang Wang-yong, a librarian at Gwangyang Gwangyeong High School.

Reading classics, reading on unfamiliar topics during advanced English classes, and trying to write something about it was difficult.
I had a hard time getting past the threshold of studying on my own after only receiving education in the form of understanding and memorizing the knowledge given in the classroom.
At that time, teacher Jeon Bo-ra taught me how to choose a topic, find information, select information, and write an essay.
Learning how to handle 'information' allowed me to complete the assignment without giving up.
Through teacher Jeon Bo-ra's class, I was able to develop the ability to learn on my own, which is essential in this age of information overload.
Park Se-yeon, third year at Seoul Shinmok High School

The brainstorming, KWL, mind maps, and citation methods that I used in my first library utilization class with Professor Jeon Bo-ra are tools that I still frequently use in many classes today.
But when I looked at the book, I found that there were many more teaching tools that I didn't know about, and some of them I could apply right away.
While the overall goal is to improve literacy, it's packed with tips for enriching lessons and process-focused assessments across all subjects.
I hope other teachers will also experience the excitement of seeing examples from various subjects and having their own lesson ideas come to them! Sim Eun-hwa, biology teacher at Seoul Whibong High School
