Integrated Korean: Advanced Intermediate Level 1 Textbook
by Ho-min Sohn; Eun-Joo Lee
KLEAR Textbooks in Korean Language
With support from the Korea Foundation
"The most notable features of the book are the authenticity of the reading materials and their relevance to the everyday life and thinking of Korean people, as well as a rich Korean-English glossary with excellent examples" --Modern Language Journal 89 (2005)
The Advanced Intermediate Level texts are the third of a five-level series developed collaboratively by leading classroom teachers and linguists of Korean. All series volumes have been developed in accordance with performance-based principles and methodology--learner-centeredness, contextualization, use of authentic materials, function/task-orientedness, balance between skill getting and skill using, and integration of speaking, listening, reading, writing, and culture. Grammar points are systematically introduced with simple but adequate explanations and abundant examples, exercises, and drills. Each lesson of this volume consists of pre-reading activities, one or two main reading texts, new words, useful expressions, exercises,
comprehension questions, related reading, discussion and composition, and English translation of the reading texts. An accompanying audio CD is available for purchase. Audio files for this volume can also be downloaded on the web in RealAudio or MP3 format.
