Kim, Je Yeol. 2001. A Study of Grammar Description Methods of Korean Language Textbooks for Foreigners. Teaching Korean as a Foreign Language, 25․26, 203～229. This paper purposes to analyze grammar description methods of current Korean language textbooks and introduces various learner-centered grammar description methods.
The present state of grammar description in Korean language textbooks is analyzed in Chapter 2 which includes two sections: (1) the methods of managing grammar as a part of text constructions and (2) the internal description methods of grammar items. More specifically, in the first section, grammar items are described as isolated things, forms are distinguished from each other by their meanings, and grammar items are dependent on the primary dialogues and texts in textbooks. In the second section, eight methods of describing meanings and functions and seven methods of presenting grammar usage are introduced.
Additionally, in Chapter 3, seven things that developers of textbooks must consider for self study of foreign learners are presented. They are as follows: that grammar categories should be illustrated clearly, that each grammar item should be presented in relation to the whole grammar system, that the description of items should be divided into two parts, meaning and usage, and that various methods for explaining the meaning of grammar items should be contemplated, that there should be close coordination between the explanation of the meaning and example sentences, and that there should be explanation of sentence patterns in the grammar explanation sections, and that forms which have similar meaning should be compared with each other. In sum, the purpose of this paper is to facilitate those developing Korean language textbooks for foreign students. (Yonsei University)
