[브레이크뉴스경기남부=수원 이귀선기자] 경기도교육청(교육감 임태희)이 겨울방학 중 다문화학생 맞춤형 한국어교육을 위해 다문화 꿈탄탄 방학 프로그램을 운영하고 있다.

다문화 꿈탄탄은 방학 중 다문화학생의 학습 공백을 줄이기 위해 맞춤형 한국어교육을 지원하는 프로그램이다. 도내 164개 초·중·고등학교에서 운영하며 다문화학생 2,000여명이 참여하고 있다.

다문화학생에 대한 래포(상호신뢰)가 형성된 담임(교과)교사가 소규모로 학생들을 집중지도한다. ▲한국어 집중교육 ▲그림책과 함께하는 한글여행 ▲한국어 의사소통 수업 ▲한국문화 이해와 세계 문화 탐구 등 교과 학습과 한국어교육이 이뤄져 학생과 학부모의 만족도가 높다.

도교육청에 따르면 다문화 밀집 지역과 소수 다문화학생이 있는 학교도 소외없이 전 지역에서 한국어 집중교육을 실시한다. 기존 밀집 지역 중심의 정책을 보완한다는데 의미가 크다.  

도교육청 조영민 융합교육정책과장은 “교육 소외 지역의 다문화학생에게 한국어교육을 지원해 교육의 공적 책임을 확대하고 맞춤형 교육지원을 강화하겠다”고 말했다.

한편 도교육청은 빠르게 증가하는 다문화학생의 공교육 진입과 적응  지원을 위해 다양한 정책을 펼치고 있다.

[Break News Southern Gyeonggi = Suwon Reporter Gwi-seon Lee] The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education (Superintendent Tae-hee Lim) is operating a multicultural dream vacation program to provide customized Korean language education to multicultural students during winter vacation.

Multicultural Dream Tantan is a program that supports customized Korean language education to reduce the learning gap of multicultural students during vacation. It is operated in 164 elementary, middle, and high schools in the province, and about 2,000 multicultural students participate.

Homeroom teachers with established rapport (mutual trust) with multicultural students provide intensive instruction to small groups of students. ▲Intensive Korean language education ▲Hangul travel with picture books ▲Korean communication class ▲Understanding Korean culture and exploration of world culture, etc. Subject learning and Korean language education are provided, resulting in high satisfaction among students and parents.

According to the Provincial Office of Education, intensive Korean language education is provided throughout the entire region without alienation, even in multicultural areas and schools with a small number of multicultural students. It is significant in that it complements existing policies focused on densely populated areas.

Cho Young-min, head of the convergence education policy department at the Provincial Office of Education, said, “We will expand public responsibility for education and strengthen customized education support by supporting Korean language education for multicultural students in educationally underprivileged areas.”

Meanwhile, the Provincial Office of Education is implementing various policies to support the rapidly increasing number of multicultural students entering and adapting to public education.
