Practice Guide

 

project  outline

    Language is the vehicle of human thought. Although Korean students, Filipino and Indonesian students try to communicate with others, there are many difficulties due to the language barrier. Moreover, students want to learn other's language, but there are no proper books to do so. Thus, we have drawn up a project to make a Korean - Tagalog-Indonesian language dictionary through the medium of English. While carrying out this project, we are able to reach an understanding of both nations' culture as well as each other's language. Also, through the learners' interaction in the process of carrying out this project, students can learn to work with each other and gain team spirit.

Conclusion and anticipated effect

Also, our understanding of the Korean , Tagalog and Indonesian will help Korean , Filipino  and Indonesian students to communicate with others and to help us to understand other's culture. Because this kind of project requires each group member's cooperation, we expect to influence each other in a positive way and to raise the attitudes of learning with mutual cooperation.
