Course Description and Objectives
Korean 201 is a continuation of the beginning Korean (Korean 101, 102).
The objective of this course is to equip students with skills in
reading, listening, writing and speaking at the low-intermediate level
in Korean. The four skills will be equally emphasized throughout this
section. The instructor will help students to build a solid foundation
for further and independent study in Korean.
Toward the end of the semester, students are expected to be able to orally communicate as well as read and write in Korean on topics that are based on their personal experiences such as weather, shopping, travel, sending mails, etc. Also, students will learn useful facts about Korean culture, history and daily life.
The instructor will use Korean as much as possible, and the use of English will be minimal.

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.
★ Daily vocabulary quizzes start at 10:30 sharp. DON’T BE LATE!
★ There will be seven lesson quizzes, otherwise announced.
★ Final written test: The test items will be based on quizzes and
assignments, covering grammar & vocabulary, listening, and writing.
★ Oral test: There will be two oral tests. During the 8th
week, paired students will make a dialogue and perform at a class.
During the 16th week, there is a one-to-one interview with
the instructor based on oral exercises in class.
★ There will be no makeup quizzes, oral test or exams unless provided
with an official proof for a justifiable reason of absence. (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.)
A+: 97 – A: 93-96.9
A-: 90-92.9
B+: 87-88.9 B: 83-86.9 B-: 80-82.9
