This study attempted to diagnose the present situation of Korean language art education and to find its improving ways based on the case studies of good classes. Cases of good classes were selected because they showed ways to solve current problems of Korean language art classes or because they are desired classes we should follow. To choose cases of good classes in Korean language art, five categories of good classes were established: 1) active meaning construction process through community learning 2) interdependence of classes and performance tests 3) extension of subject contents by utilizing mass media. 4) implementation of personality education and reflections on language culture of local community 5) adoption of various kinds of reading programs. To select classes having properties mentioned above, many cases of Korean language art classes, recommended via several routes, were reviewed by this researcher as well as a Korean language art specialists committee. Consequently, 10 cases of good classes were selected and each of them represented one of five categories. After having been observed, interviewed and analyzed, 5 cases were finally selected through discussion and guidance of a specialists` committee. General properties of good classes were to hold obvious educational philosophy, to interact with students positively, to use effective teaching speech, to make an effort for teacher expertise, to be supported by active school staffs, and to utilize appropriate teaching and testing methods based on intricate class preparation.
