Learning Journal 4: Document (a) your goals and tasks for weeks 4 and 5, (b) the resources and activities you will use to achieve your goals, and (c) how you will evaluate your success
For weeks 4 and 5, I’m aiming to finish learning how to read, write, and say the entire Korean alphabet. As mentioned in the learning journal for week 3, I have been using apps like Duolingo and Memrise to help me learn new letters and review ones that I have already studied. I have also been using resources provided in class alongside these apps. I think seeing the improvements in how quickly I can read and write the alphabet will help me assess my success in this goal. The quizzes taken in class will also help me see what I have learned and what I need to improve upon.
After completing this goal, I want to use what I’ve learned about the Korean alphabet to learn how to read and write some essential vocabulary. I consider the essentials to be words and phrases that would help me communicate basic things about myself, like my name, and things that would be expected in a polite exchange, like ‘how are you,’ ‘goodbye,’ etc. I will learn vocabulary from the textbook readings and workbook pages received through class, and I will use on line resources for daily practice. I will also look up words and phrases that I have particular interest in learning. I will need to find a good English to Korean dictionary. I’ll assess my success in this goal through in class assessments and through documenting the improvement of my listening, speaking, and writing abilities.
