Korean is the seventh most commonly spoken language in the United
States, and Korean heritage students-those with some proficiency in
or a cultural connection to the language through family or
community-make up a substantial portion of Korean learners at the
college level. Many schools offer a separate heritage track for
learning Korean, but until now there has been no textbook designed
specifically for heritage learners as well as the increasing number
of students from diverse backgrounds who are interested in pursuing
intensive learning to build on their prior experience with Korean.
Integrated Korean: Accelerated 1 and 2 directly address the
linguistic needs and abilities of heritage and accelerated learners
in a single academic year. Volume 1 presents lessons on
thematically organized subjects, starting with familiar topics such
as family, friends, daily routines, schoolwork, campus activities,
dining out, and shopping. Volume 2 advances to more formal subjects
beyond family and friends, such as travel, transportation, housing,
holidays, lifestyles, careers, and Korean history and culture.
Students approach the lessons with multilevel communicative
classroom activities and reading materials with standards-based
exercises and projects that not only address the particular
language requirements of heritage learners, but also encourage them
to participate more fully in their own family and community life.
Each volume's textbook and workbook offer authentic conversations
and texts in both informal and formal contexts, structured tasks,
and a wealth of interesting and relevant cultural content.
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.
