A lot of the resources for Korean in Global Studio were geared towards beginner Korean. A Because I do have basic background in Korean, I personally don’t think the resources on shelves will be too helpful in learning new vocabulary words. I also looked through Mango Languages and I was familiar with most of the things for it covered a lot of basic/practical Korean lessons. I think Diigo is useful for I can organize a separate folder/file for Korean. I’m hoping the things I find helpful can benefit other students in the class as well. I liked BYKI for learning vocabulary words, but as I mentioned earlier, and I think I’ll use it time to time.
I found an online Intermediate College Korean Lesson plan on University of Berkeley Language site (http://www.language.berkeley.edu/Korean/10/). The texts and dialogues also come with an audio component which I think will be very helpful. The lesson plans go over a variety of topics such as dialogues in an airplane (which I think will be extremely useful and important for travelling to Korea) and facts about Korean holidays. Each lesson is also comprised of grammar lessons, vocabulary, exercises, additional exercises, and homework. I hope to go through 1 or 2 lessons per week.
My plan for this week is to go over Lesson 1 and 2 on the Intermediate College Korean website as well as watch Youtube videos. I found a great video series for learning Korean from MASTERTOPIK on youtube. Each video is about 40-45 min and it goes over from beginner Korean and intermediate Korean. I plan to watch the Beginner Korean I first and follow through up to Intermediate (I bookmarked both of these resources on diigo as well).
