ABSTRACT

This study notes that the use of folktales, especially among classical literature, can be used as an interesting course to converge and accept both domestic and foreign learners at the qualitative and academic level. As the influx of international students in domestic universities increases, the number of lectures taken by international students and Korean students is also increasing. However, in the field of universities, there is an inevitable educational gap between international students and Korean students. In this situation, it is meaningful that the educational use of folktales maximizes the participation of the members and enables mutual communication. The text used at this time can be selected not only from Korea but also from other countries/mother countries, and the student actively learns the story through the process of ‘reading-listeningwriting-speaking’ with the instructor. It is judged that such a learning plan can confirm the universality of the old story for both international and domestic students and expand it to an opportunity to understand the traditionality and uniqueness of Korea at the same time. Accordingly, by introducing specific lecture plans and related materials, and analyzing resentations of learners submitted as final results, we will discuss the future-oriented development direction that this folktales education implies.
