Abstract

How is PCK improving in Korean education training courses for international students? This study presented three research questions, which were answered through FGI. First, can international students improve their PCK while taking Korean education training? The answer is yes. We found that students' subject content, context, and pedagogical knowledge were all improved. Second, international students made some comments to further improve their PCK. They aimed to further practice teaching plans. Korean textbooks should be prepared for each language. Education on learner control should also be provided. Third, professors and researchers should study in earnest on “the establishment of educational practice courses for non-native speakers.” For example, is it correct to make and write the textbook in Korean? As the teacher's Korean language skills are still lacking, how will the class proceed? How will they use their strength of experience as Korean learners? This study has limitations as it is a case study. Relevant research that can be more closely designed and generalizable should continue to be published.
