This workbook will be most effective when used in conjunction with the textbook Discover Korean I, as it aims to help novice learners of Korean to practice and effectively use the grammar and various expressions introduced in that text. To facilitate the learning process, the authors have followed an integrated skills approach, with the practice and use of all four skills included in all six units except unit 1. In unit 1, we have included questions to help learners acquire the basic reading and writing skills of Korean through a step by step approach. We have included a pronunciation focus, as well. Learners can learn the pronunciation of various vocabulary items based on their understanding of the Hangul alphabet. Units 2 - encourage learners to practice speaking, reading, listening and writing in an integrated way utilizing newly-introduced vocabulary and grammar in each unit. The first section of each unit consists of questions that allow learners to practice the basic vocabulary of the unit. Vocabulary acquisition is facilitated by audio materials and a variety of illustrations, both of which provide meaningful additional practice. The second section of each unit contains examples to help learners apply the grammatical concepts learned in the unit. The third section consists of questions that allow learners to practice speaking and reading. The questions serve to guide learners in improving their ability to communicate in various situations. This is because the workbook is based on a communicative language teaching approach to foster the development of communication skills most appropriate for the real world. This section also provides various reading materials relating to the topic of each textbook unit to develop learners’ reading skills, expand their knowledge, and enhance their understanding of grammar and vocabulary, all in ways which can be applied to their daily communication. The fourth section includes questions for listening and writing practice. This section makes use of high frequency, real world listening materials which allow learners to apply and utilize basic listening and writing skills in a variety of real-life situations. In addition, given current learners’ interest in the Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK), the authors have included reading and listening questions in the fourth section that are similar to those on the test. This provides learners an opportunity to familiarize themselves with the question style on the test prior to taking it. In closing, we would like to wish you, the Korean language learner, the best of luck in your studies. We sincerely hope that this workbook proves to be a useful resource on your journey.
