The purpose of this study is to analyze 118 studies in the field of Korean presentation education conducted between 2005 and January 2023 and to provide insight into the future direction of research in this area. The study utilized Topic modeling and direct researcher analysis methods to examine Korean presentation education research materials. The analysis revealed a steady increase in research on Korean presentation education, with high frequency keywords such as ‘academic’, ‘purpose’, ‘discourse’, and ‘class’ indicating that research has been conducted on these topics. Furthermore, the Topic modeling analysis revealed that many studies have focused on ‘study on the analysis of aspects and the use of strategies in presentation discourse’ and ‘study on the use of presentation classes by learners’, particularly for Chinese native learners. In terms of research methods, the analysis conducted through direct researcher analysis showed that the most common methods used were ‘dialogue analysis’ and ‘survey research’, and single research methods were utilized more frequently than mixed methods. Based on these findings, this study suggests that future research should focus on Korean presentation education for language learners with various purposes and employ a variety of research methods.

This study aims to analyze research trends in Korean listening education for academic purposes, and suggest for future research directions. For this purpose, this study consulted a total of 57 pre-existing studies, including 32 articles in academic journals, 21 masters’ theses, and four doctoral dissertations conducted from 2005 through December 2021. The results are as follows: First, to examine the trends by year and type, comparing the 2010s to the 2000s when the research began. It was found that the number of studies greatly increased in the 2010s, and the frequency of studies in the 2020s tend to increase further. Second, as a result of an analysis of the trends by topic, it was found that teaching and learning methods were most studied and that there were also many studies concerned with strategy. However, there were relatively fewer studies on evaluation and curriculum. Third, this study aimed to examine trends by research method. It was found that the studies mostly employed the survey method, followed by quantitative mixed method and experimental approaches. Consequently, it was noted that the quantitative research methods were most widely used in the field of listening to Korean for academic purposes, and at the same time, since all studies that used mixed research methods employed another research method along with the survey method, it was found that the use of the survey method was the dominant type of quantitative research method.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the research trends in Korean education for learners in the Arab region. This paper also suggests directions for the future research on the field of Korean education for these learners. To conduct this study, a process of collection and sorting of research papers was held as the first step. Consequently, 64 papers were chosen. Among 64 papers, 31 academic journals and 33 theses were included. The study then reviewed the research trend by years, publishing types, and topics. Although there were very few studies in the 2000s, the number of studies has steadily increased after 2010. This was related to the Korean Wave in Arab countries and the increase in Arab students who study in Korean from 2013. In the topic analysis by the topics, ‘Teaching and Learning’ accounted for the largest proportion. The second largest proportion was ‘Korean Education Content’. Next was ‘Korean Education in general’, followed by ‘Contrastive Analysis’. Overall, there have been many studies based on contrast or error analysis between Arabic and Korean languages. In terms of contents, there were many studies on phonetics and culture. However, it was found that there are many studies that need to be addressed in each sub-topic. Lastly, based on the analysis in this study, the characteristics and limitations of research trends were analyzed, and future research directions were suggested.

The purpose of this study is to analyze research trends in Korean language education for North Korean refugees. In pursuance of this goal, the study collected bibliographic information from 1,924 academic papers related to North Korean defectors and analyzed their research trends using language network analysis methods. The frequency and centrality of the academic papers were analyzed by year, using an analysis tool, NetMiner 4.0, which focuses on analyzing social networks. The findings of the analysis were as follows: First, the study of North Korean defectors began to explode in 2010. Second, the most central words were ‘education,’ ‘unification,’ ‘policy,’ ‘support,’ ‘experience’ and ‘relationship.’ Third, for North Korean defectors, Korean language education as a foreign language was more actively done than general Korean language education. Fourth, the analysis of 15 topics showed that topics on social issues accounted for the highest percentage at 25%. Finally, the areas of greatest interest in Korean language education were vocabulary, pronunciation, and intonation education. It is hoped that more research on Korean language education for North Korean defectors will be carried out in the future.

본 연구는 한국어 교육 어휘의 선정과 배열의 연구 동향을 살펴보고 향후 나아가야 할 방향을 모색하는 데에 그 목적을 두고 있 다. 이를 위해 2000년 이후 발표된 248편의 연구를 연도별, 연구 대상 별, 어휘 유형별로 분류하여 분석하였다. 그 결과, 연도별 동향으로 상 승과 하락을 반복하며 전반적인 상승세를 이어왔다. 연구 대상의 학습 목적으로는 ‘일반 목적’ 연구가 주를 이루고 있고, 학습자 언어권으로 는 언어권과 상관없이 진행된 ‘범언어권’ 연구가 가장 많이 나타났으 며, 학습자 숙달도로는 ‘전체급수’를 대상으로 한 연구가 가장 많았다. 어휘 유형으로는 ‘학술 어휘’, ‘주제별 어휘’, ‘한자어’ 등에 대한 연구가 활발하게 이루어져 왔다. 이에 향후 학습자의 학습 목적 및 배경, 언 어권, 숙달도 등 변인을 구체화하여 연구를 진행할 필요가 있으며, 다 양한 학습 목적 및 언어를 가진 학습자의 특성을 고려하여 보다 다양 한 어휘 유형에 대한 연구가 진행되어야 할 것이다.

대부분의 학습 결과는 교수-학습 과정에서 발생한다. 한국어 교육은 수업 활동을 포함하므로 교수-학습 방안을 살피고 그것의 효 율성을 점검하는 일은 대단히 중요하다. 교수-학습 방안은 크게 1) 학 습 목표 및 방법론 제시, 2) 학습자 또는 오류 분석, 3) 교수-학습 모 형 제시 및 수업 활동에 모형 적용, 4) 모형 또는 방안의 효율성 분석 단계로 구성된다. 본고에서는 효과적인 한국어 교육을 위해서는 효율 적인 교수-학습 방안이 필요함을 확인하고, 2011년-2022년에 걸쳐 발 표된 석사, 박사학위 논문 2,374편 가운데 교수-학습 방안을 다룬 366 편에 대해 위의 4단계 과정과 내용이 적절하게 기술되고 있는지를 살 폈다. 그 결과, 논문의 17%만이 네 단계의 과정과 내용을 만족하고 있 음을 확인하였다. 이는 학문 목적 한국어 교육을 위한 향후 연구가 보 다 실천적으로 변화되어야 한다는 의미로 이해하였다.

이 연구는 국내에서 발표된 외국인을 대상으로 한 한국어 읽기교육의 연구물을 조사․정리하여 지금까지의 연구의 경향을 밝히고 앞으로의 한국어 읽기교육에 관한 연구의 대안을 제시하는 데 목적이 있다. 한국어 읽기교육의 연구는 김경숙(1983)을 시발점으로 하여 2009년 8월까지 발표된 총 편수는 학술지 논문이 49편이고, 학위 논문이 58편이다. 총 107편의 논문 중에서 주제별로 읽기교육 방법에 관한 연구물이 64편, 교육과정에 관한 연구물이 16편, 텍스트에 관한 연구물이 27편이었다. 이 중 읽기 교육 방법의 연구물을 중심으로 살펴보면 다음의 세 가지 경향을 띠고 있음을 알 수 있다. 우선 읽기 수업을 읽기 전, 읽기, 읽기 후 등으로 세분하여 각 단계별로 어떻게 읽기수업을 진행할 것인가에 대한 교수 방안이다. 다음으로 읽기 수업에서 교사나 학생이 사용할 수 있는 다양한 전략을 소개하거나 각 전략이 가지는 장점과 수업에서의 효과 등을 증명한 연구이다. 마지막으로 읽기의 특성에 따른 다양한 읽기 방법을 활용한 수업 방안 제시 등이다. 앞으로 다양한 학습자의 요구와 필요에 맞는 다양한 읽기 수업의 방법과 전략이 개발되어야 할 것이다.
