Abstract

This paper reviewed cases where Korean AIV(APEC Internet Volunteer) members taught classes using multimedia tools after they formed a rapport through cultural exchanges in the Philippines. After completing the preparations for hardware and software installation in the computer lab, Korean Internet Volunteer members participated in cultural exchange activities with students through singing and dancing, increasing their immersion while practicing multimedia tools and developing class activities. After learning the computer skills, Filipino students were able to sing or dance to become the protagonists of the video recording content, thereby applying a model of the volunteer group’s activities in which the use of computers had cultural connections among them. Photos, videos, memo and report data were collected and analyzed. In order to supplement qualitative data analysis, interviews were conducted 2-3 times with one Korean teacher who was a member of the volunteer group. The main features of the Korean Internet Volunteer team activities were presented, and a follow-up Korean Volunteers’ activities in 2018 were reviewed as a contrast. Finally, we tried to suggest guidelines that might be applicable to Korean educational practitioners who used to encourage their students to promote creative expressions using multimedia tools in Korean schools and after-school classes.
