ABSTRACT

This article presents the direction of Korean education for members of multi-cultural families For this purpose, we first surveyed the need for Korean education of international marriage women immigrants. Furthermore, to find out what kind of people teach the members of multi-cultural families, we investigated the qualifications which institutions related to multi-culture required. As a result, we discovered that many problems of Korean educations for multi-cultural families came from lack of Korean educators' professionality. To find out about the Korean education for offsprings of multi-cultural families, we interviewed the elementary school teachers and analyzed the results. Then confirmed that they have problems with poor grades in studying than just the command of Korean language. As a conclusion, to correct the direction of Korean education for the multi-cultural families, this article suggested the points below. 1) The educators for the multi-cultural families have to be professional. 2) The levels, means and contents of Korean education for international marriage women immigrants have to be systematized and diversified. 3) Korean education for offsprings of multi-cultural families should be unified with regular school courses. 4) Many Korean textbooks and educational materials should be developed. 5) Korean education related to living culture should be increased.
