The purpose of this paper is to review the policy of foreign language education in France and to analyze its effects in primary and secondary schools, including the changes that have recent1y taken place. Under the assumption that languages ref1ect their culture, the administrative of France has tried to co、rer a variety of languages in Europe and to improve the quality of foreign language education. These efforts, however, appear to be unsuccessful due to the financial problems and the heavy emphasis on particular languages based on the social and economical reasons. Nevertheless, these efforts are valued highly, and provide some insights to the cωurre Korea.

It has passed 10 years since The Society For Korean Language & Literature Corporation Aggregate had offered Nation-wide Test Of Hanja-capability Certificate. Year by year the number applicants grow almost as much as that of College Learning Capability Test. The Test, now become a national license, has great social influence. If not long after, the advantage of this license holder is guaranteed for evaluations of national officers and for employing of teachers, its influence will be more enlarged. Upon this point of time, 10 years from the start of The Test, it will be very meaningful to view in retrospect the footsteps and building environment and to self-evaluate the acting result of, The Society For Korean Language & Literary Research. The Society For Korean Language & Literature, and Korean Hanja Proficiency Test Institute that have lead Co-Using OF Hangul & Hanja Movement. At this paper, we will inspect the language policy of American military administration at Korea at the epoch of liberation from Japan, and the Korean language policy at 1968 and 1969, that become the motive of founding Research Society Of Education For Korean Language & Literature, and also view the meaning of Nation-wide Test Of Hanja-capability Certificate, and the influential role of that for our language education until now, and future prospect.

For long times I, the author, wanted to find the materials of language and literal policy during the American military administrative era, but it would not go easy. Then in 1999 Mr. Son, WonIl, my acquaintance found and send me 『Report of the United States Educational Mission to Japans』. This working is written for analyzing our country`s language policy right after Liberation, and its background, focusing on 『Report of the United States Educational Mission to Japan』, and for trying to find out alternative policy. Now over half a century have passed since the Liberation, but where we stand on the great wave of world history? Our language & literal policy have repeated twisted walking tending to the emotional surroundings that based on Hangul-only ism since the enactment of Hangul-only-law in October, 9, 1948. Language & literal policy does not, reveal visible result to our eyes immediately as industrial one. But the result of language policy make enormous influence enough to tremble the identity of a nation. Nevertheless I could not find any traces of policy authorities that took attention on this problem, at any successive governments. The two voices that proclaim Hanja-education and Hangul-only-education have too acutely confronted, so each have run parallel way with no yielding. The scholars and policy authorities that do not join any of the two sides have disregarded the two voices as obstinate egoistic quarrel of some scholars that have nothing to do with them. The proclamations of scholars whether in Hanja-education or Hangul-only-education also in fact flowed mainly as a matter of course that `must educate Hanja` or `must use Hangul-only`, not by rational analyzing of the cause and proposal of logical alternatives. But the causeless and emotional matter of course will not be persuasive. There were exceptional excellent work such as quot;Collection of Lectures on National Language and National Alphabetsquot; of Dr. Nam, GwangWoo and quot;The Significant Misunderstanding about National Languagequot; of Mr. O, JiHo. But the works that mainly on analyzing and alternatives are very uneasy to find out. During last several years I, the author, writing works concerning language & literal police become to observe Korean language at linguistic side. The more I investigate Korean language, the more I perceive that Hangul and Hanja are undividable linguistic features. Of course since I am not a linguistics specialist I feel sorry for the specialized scholars. But the books of Mizura Sdomu, who not a scholar of linguistics, that studied linguistic features of Japanese language more deeply than any other and left distinct footsteps on that field, gave me many stimuli. The keen analyze of Mr. Park KyungBeom, a natural scientist graduated the department of computer science and statistics of Seoul National University, also be a great help to compare and analyzing the linguistic features of Korean language and English language. Recently many people says quot;The crisis of human sciencesquot;, but few accurately point the cause of that. Boldly I think the cause is at the wrong Hangul-only language & literal policy. Although language & literal policy is a significant and great affair that holds the destiny of national people, it have been disregarded as out of consideration. Hangul-only policy of the character media such as newspapers and editions have made the thinking of readers dull, voluntarily result in shackle themselves in competition with television media. This rough work is not a pure academic one that comments the linguistic feature of Korean language. Only I will be satisfied if throughout this work, we can reflect the problems of our history of language and literal policy and can find out even a small motive for studying linguistics of Korean language.

언어는 사회 및 집단의 주요한 문화유산이자 소통의 도구이며 소속 구성원 간 이해와 연대의식, 소속감 과 애착을 형성하는 토대이다. 따라서 공존과 통합이 중요한 사회적 과제로 부상한 다문화 시대에, 다문화 가정 학생을 대상으로 하는 언어교육은 매우 중요한 정책 아젠다가 된다. 다문화가정 학생에 대한 언어교 육 정책은 사회의 공식 언어를 교육하는 것과 학습자의 제1언어를 유지, 계발할 수 있도록 도와주는 계승 어 교육 혹은 이중언어교육으로 구분된다. 공식 언어를 교육함으로써 사회 통합을 도모하는 동시에 제1언 어의 습득 기회를 보장함으로써 문화적 정체성을 유지하도록 하고 개인이 지닌 교육적 자산을 최대한 활 용할 수 있는 기회를 제공하는 것이다. 2006년 다문화 교육이 정책 아젠다로 등장한 이후, 다문화 언어교 육 정책은 비교적 짧은 기간에도 불구하고 많은 가시적인 변화와 성과를 달성해 왔다. 이제는 그간 축적 해 온 교육 자원의 효율적인 활용과 정책의 전문화 및 세분화를 모색할 시점이다. 이러한 맥락에서 본 연 구는 바람직한 다문화 언어교육을 위한 국가 정책 차원의 목표와 원리, 접근 방식 등을 제안하고자 하였 다. 이를 위해, 다문화가정 학습자의 언어 발달 원리를 이론적으로 분석하고, 일본․독일․캐나다․미국 등, 주요 국가의 다문화 언어교육 정책을 고찰하였다. 또한 국내에서 이루어지고 있는 한국어(KSL) 교육과 이중언어교육의 현황을 검토하여, 정책 측면, 프로그램 측면, 운영 측면에서의 약점과 강점을 분석하였다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 하여 다문화 언어교육 강화를 위한 방안을 교육 목표, 교육과정, 교수-학습, 운영체 제, 교강사 운영, 학교-가정-사회의 지원 체제별로 구분하여 제안하였다.
