2018 Summer Personal Essay

Our team used education as the keyword at this global issue forum. The main topic is comparison and analysis of university education in Goryeo and university education in modern Korea. I was in charge of investigating the modern college education system. I analyzed the adventages and disadventages of the modern education system by analyzing the news and charts of Wikipedia and newspapers. and I translated korean into English, The materials on the Gukjagam, the national science of Goryeo, and the munheongongdo, the private educational institution of Goryeo.

I didn't know I'd have to edit the wiki until I did this activity. Although there were ups and downs and trials as it was the first time I dealed with it, I could improve my ability to understand and edit under the directions of my teacher. Also, because our team is made up of friends who want to be engaged in education, we could talk about education and I think it would be able to help me a lot in my future. moreover, by introducing our own system, we were able to share our culture as citizens of the world and foster patriotism and love to our culture.

I wrote stories and scripts for my presentation. With the motif of the famous book Harry Potter, the focus was to show and explain the international heritage and literature. I am afraid of English composition. Can I write script well? I thought, but as I discussed and talked with my friends, I could write without burden. Through this, I removed the burden on English composition and developed my ability to write naturally.

I also learned that there was a lot of effort from the Goryeo Dynasty to the present education of Korea. Before studying this subject, I was unfamiliar with the education system of Goryeo. Through this activity, however, I thought about how to reform the education system and how students can pursue their dreams. 1000 anniversary of the founding of the Goryeo Dynasty was not celebrated because that year was on the Japanese occupation that suffering many of our people. That is why the 110-year anniversary is so important. Moreover, it was a good experience to celebrate in the ganghwa that flower of the Goryeo Dynasty, which has been the capital of Korea for 39 years.
