We have an upcoming 3P in-service course for educators
exploring Korea's traditional art & culture through the
lens of contemporary media. Please find the details for
the six-day program below. Non-credit participants are
also welcomed.

With the international consumption of Korean contemporary
media such as K-pop, dramas, and movies on the rise, what
do these exports say about Korea? We explore how Korean
music, television, and film creators reference the past
to create their art. Utilizing a combination of lecture,
discussions, and screenings, this course will provide
educators with a framework of resources with which to
examine topics with their students such as performing
arts, literature, the division of the Korean peninsula,
national heroes, and contemporary Korean society.
Throughout the course, classroom activities workshops
provide participants with curriculum materials. Teachers
will collaborate to transfer their newfound knowledge to
classroom practice, as well as design teaching materials
that fit the diverse needs of their classrooms. Supported
by the Freeman Foundation.
