Abstract | The language policies and practices embodied in the Peace Corps/Korea program (1966-1981) are the reflection and the implementation of language ideologies that interplay with the socio-historical, political, and economic contexts of Korea during the 1960s and 1970s. Concerned with a nation's modernization, Korea placed an emphasis on educational development. Peace Corps Volunteers in Korea, most of whom taught English, were expected to contribute to Korea's economic development by emphasizing communicative English. The Peace Corps/Korea's English Language Teaching (ELT), which was in sharp contrast to Korea's traditional ELT was justified, rationalized, and legitimized as a path to modernity and prosperity. (As Provided). |
