This is a thoroughly revised edition of Integrated Korean: Intermediate
1, the third volume of the best-selling series developed collaboratively
by leading classroom teachers and linguists of Korean. All the series'
volumes have been developed in accordance with performance-based
principles and methodology--contextualization, learner-centeredness, use
of authentic materials, usage-orientedness, balance between skill
getting and skill using, and integration of speaking, listening,
reading, writing, and culture. Grammar points are systematically
introduced in simple but adequate explanations and abundant examples and
exercises.
Each situation/topic-based lesson of the main texts consists of model
dialogues, narration, new words and expressions, vocabulary notes,
culture, grammar, usage, and English translation of dialogues. In
response to comments from hundreds of students and instructors of the
second edition, this new third edition features an attractive color
design with new photos and drawings and lesson and vocabulary exercises
that have been fully reorganized. Each lesson contains a conversational
text (with its own vocabulary list) and a reading passage. The
accompanying workbook provides students with extensive skill-using
activities based on the skills learned in the main text.
Integrated Korean is a project of the Korean Language Education and
Research Center (KLEAR) with the support of the Korea Foundation. In
addition to the five-level Integrated Korean textbooks and workbooks,
volumes include Korean Composition, Korean Language in Culture and
Society, Korean Reader for Chinese Characters, Readings in Modern Korean
Literature, A Resource for Korean Grammar Instruction, and Selected
Readings in Korean.
