작문에서 문법의 기능과 역할 = The Role and the Function of Grammar Education in Writing

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper discusses the role and the function of grammar education in writing. Looking at the results of experimental studies, it is not effective to teach students grammar through writing education. Though students are taught grammar to write essays well, their writing skills didn`t improve very much. The reason is that language is not acquired through rules and systems but it is acquired through circumstance and contexts. The crisis of Grammar Education has become an issue in the meantime. Therefore it has been a goal to change knowledge-based Grammar education into Function-oriented Grammar Education. Integrated Grammar Education theory proposed that grammar would be meaningful to improve language abilities. Function-oriented education that considers especially grammar as the tool for meaning production was mostly preferable. But the perspective of Function-oriented Grammar doesn`t accord with cognitive processes languages are produced. Though you create languages that change concept and meaning to symbolic system through vocal system, some rules and systems don`t make sense in language. Moreover, in the case of a native writer, language rules are saved as knowledge of language in the long-term and automatically. For this reason if you are not novice, grammar is seldom a tool of production in language life. In cognitive perspective, foreigners who learn Korean and novice writer only use grammar as the tools of meaning production. In addition, the principle of written text is very complicated. The text includes sentence-dimension, text-dimension and rhetorical dimension. Genre comes from the meaning of the words to create a bridge relationship between the author and the readers they have an effect on writing. Because of several reasons, from the point of view cognitive perspective it`s not good to use function-oriented grammar education for the writing.
