This study is based on a case study, in which an interactive teaching method has been applied to teach beginning level of Chinese to Korean college students. One of the lessons from the textbook, Speaking Basic Chinese (2013) has been used for teaching 21 students. The method suggests three stages of interactions by including: (1) word learning, 2) sentence production, and (3) sentence application. The stage of word learning is further divided into 3 steps: (1) pronunciation and understanding meaning, (2) inducing student participation, (3) confirmation and self-inspection. The second stage of sentence production is also divided into 3 different steps: (1) sentence production using learned words, (2) practicing sentences, (3) practicing sentences by role-plays. Likewise, the final stage of sentence application includes 2 practical steps: (1) interpreting basic sentences, (2) interpreting more complex sentences. This case study has found that the students feel more interested and motivated in learning activities through diverse interactions between the instructor and the students, and also interactions between the students. It is suggested that this kind of interactive approaches be applied to teaching the beginning Chinese conversation and higher levels as well. Finally, the finding of the present case study should be examined with more and in-depth studies and experiments in the future.

This study will analyze the problems of the backward (obsolete) textbook contents and the stereotyped (imprisoned) teaching methods in classroom implemented by the Korean universities who teach advanced Mandarin conversation lesson in this digital era, and then put forward one possible solution called the model of “Flipped Learning”(“Flipped Classroom” is also included), which could teach advanced Mandarin conversation lesson by flexibly using Internet E-books. The existing education’s paradigm is discarded by teachers and students, and the textbooks’ role is changing rapidly and dramatically along with the education spread and knowledge diffusion via Internet. Through the flexible usage of the latest Internet E-books, not only the politics, economics, cultures, media and press of Chinese modern society could be known, but also our young generation (post 90s, post 00s)’s thought and vision. In a “Flipped Classroom” which gives conversation lesson, it could be expected that weak study will and motivation could be stimulated; uninterested and dull lessons could be inverted into spirit-lifting ones which contain endless lively activities; and those students who used to learn passively could maximize their ability to solve problems all by themselves in their learning process.

본 연구는 수업상황에서 유치원 교사들은 어떤 수업대화를 중요하게 인식하는지와 그 수업대화에 대한 자신들의 실행수준은 어느 정도인지를 인식하고 있는지를 알아보고, 유치원 교사의 수업대화 측면에서 향후 개선 노력해야 할 항목은 무엇인지를 밝히고자 하였다. 연구 대상은 296명의 유치원 교사였고, 연구도구는 김호(2015)가 개발한 유아교사의 수업화법 능력 평가 도구 설문을 활용하였다. 유치원 수업대화에서 나타난 항목들에 대한 중요도와 실행도를 평정한 자료를 수집하고, 대응표본 t검증과 IPA 분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과, 첫째, 유치원 교사들은 경청하기, 격려와 칭찬하기, 동기유발하기를 중요하게 인식하고 있는 반면에 피드백하기와 질문하기는 상대적으로 덜 중요하게 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 실행도 측면에서는 유치원 교사들은 설명하기에서 가장 높은 실행도를 보였고, 그 다음으로는 격려와 칭찬하기, 경청하기, 동기유발하기, 피드백하기, 질문하기 순인 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 유치원 교사의 효율적인 수업대화에 대한 IPA 분석 결과, 향후 개선노력을 집중해야 할 항목으로는 유아의 대답에 따뜻하게 반응하기, 개방적인 질문 자주 사용하기, 자료나 매체 적절하게 사용하기, 유아의 내적 동기 유발하기 항목이었다.
