will learn useful facts about Korean culture, history and daily life.

Descriptions
★ Because of the
cumulative nature of any language learning, attendance is an essential
part in this course. Thus, attendance check will be strictly enforced.
If a student is absent 6 times and more without any written proof of
inevitable circumstances, her/his grade will be dropped one full letter
grade (A→B). If you miss more
than ten classes, your final grade will be an F.
Three tardies (ten minutes) will count as one absence.
★ Assignments are due on the notified date. Late assignments will be
graded, but 75% after one day, and 50% after two days.
★ There are daily vocabulary quizzes at the start of a class from the
third day. The quiz starts at 08:30 sharp. DON’T BE LATE!
★ There will be seven lesson quizzes, otherwise announced. The quizzes
consist of listening, vocabulary & grammar, and writing.
★ Oral tests: There will be two oral tests. During the 9th
week, paired students will make a dialogue and perform at a class.
During the 16th weeks, there is a one-to-one interview with
the instructor based on oral exercises in class.
★ Final written test: The test items will be based on quizzes and
assignments, covering grammar & vocabulary, listening, and writing.
★ There will be NO MAKEUP quizzes, oral test or exams unless provided
with an official proof for a justifiable reason of absence. In case a
make up exam is granted, it must be done
within a week from the original exam
date.
(Note: Any kind of cheating on exams, quizzes, and other assignments
will be met by severe punishments, including (1) expulsion from the
course with a failing grade; and (2) a report to University of Hawaii at
Manoa officials. Appeals may be made through appropriate channels.)
