ABSTRACT

This study focuses on the problem of Korean linguistics as social integration policy for foreign migrant workers. Particularly, we look into Korean Immigration & Integration Program(KIIP) to find out how foreign migrant workers can learn Korean language more effectively. In order to analyze the actual conditions of Korean language education for the foreign migrant workers, we adopt linguistic typological methods using Geographic Information System(GIS). Using GIS, we present the spread of the foreign migrant workers population and educational facilities enforcing the KIIP program. We also show some possibilities to improve the educational environment for foreign migrant workers such as the flexibility of class schedules, revision of textbooks and compensation of government.
