The Study on Solutions for the Outside-School-Factors Affecting Prior Learning
The purpose of this study is to identify the factors affecting prior learning and to seek solutions to those factors, thereby setting forth long-term policy direction for the Korean government and phased strategies to carry out such policies. In order to achieve such purpose, we conducted literature reviews, surveys, interviews, focused group interviews and expert consultations.
In this study, the term prior learning is defined as ‘learning the contents of the curriculum by paying certain amount of fee, at least one semester in advance, for at least one month through private tutoring, cram schools, e-learning courses.” Survey was conducted among the subjects of Korean, English, mathematics and science which are expected to show whether the students are engaged in prior learning or not more clearly.
