CO-WRITERS: Onyou Kim and Duc Nguyen Thanh
GIC TALK DATE: July 11, 2015
GIC TALK TITLE: Education in Korea
Education is important in South Korea because it not only helps us to generate better generations but it also relatively makes our society become a more worthy and better place to live.
Ana Traynin, the GIC Talk Speaker, gave her thoughts and perspectives about what alternative education in Korea is and what makes alternative education in Korea differ from that in other countries, as well as some advantages of how Korean high school students can benefit. Through videos, pictures, and personal stories, Ana explained that alternative education offers something different than what is offered with typical Korean high school curriculums.
According to her talk, Ana also presented five educational principles which are currently becoming practically at a high school where she is serving as a teacher. Those principles are: Dormitory Life, being “Well-Rounded,” Environment, Civics, and Autonomous Education.
Ana provided some evidence at her school, especially concerning outdoor activities that help build students’ skills and provide first hands-on experiences, such as: nature experience learning, walking alongside the Seomjin River, hiking Jiri Mountain, and farming.
Participating in these activities and enjoying them will definitely help young students open their eyes to the variety of knowledge that is in this world and achieve better futures.
