Critical Pedagogies in Korea: For May 19th: What connections can can you see between Ngugi's experiences and those of Korea's past?Ngugi's experienced about his child' period of education that he went to a colonial school, and he lost his mother-tongue because English became the language of his formal eduaction. In Kenya, English became more than a language. Also, his humiliating experience was to be caught speaking Gikuyu in the sccool kind of corporal punishment. In Korea, our country had got same situation like Kenya language suppression. In my mother's experirnce which she couldn't have speak in Chosun uh in her elementary school under Japan goverment for aroud 40 years. She remembered that some students spoke out Chosun uh in class, they should have to receive a corporal punishment from school officer. If they was indicated the culprit, they quit their school at the same time. My mom said that she was so careful language using anytime because of hidden puppil like witch- hunters in Kenya school.My mom's generation lost theri own community, culture, history and ethnic society. Because of Japan government' control, they only spoke in japanese in class and ouside school. I think language is the most powerful thing in any society on in the world wide. Any people gather their mind, thought,and ideology through using their own language. If they lose their mother-tongue by any unreasonable thing, they will accept many trouble situation without any protection. I love korean language,so I will keep my mother tongue any problem situation. It is moat important factor in our country through the past experience.
What connectiions can you see between Ngugi's context and the present situation in Korea?/ What differences can you see?
Our country's attitude to English which one is the ticket to hogher realms same as Kenya. Almost 10 years ago, our country's English became the measure of intelligence and ability in the all learning area like economy, education, sceinces, and physics. English became the main purpose of the chilld' s necessary thing of formal and private education like Kenya. Nowaday, in Korea, all entrance exam for University will be taken for all Korean hogh school studentsinclude English subject almost 40 years ago. English subject is essential evaluationd for Korean people ability for learning background unlikely Kenya.Until now our country's English dominats rate about all society has not been too much spreading out than Kenya. However, we cannot control English will become globalizing in worldwide phenominon. We will try to keep our own language using rate to increse much more than nowand just before. Language is a means of communication, culture and history things. Most Korean doesn't care about language especially English colonizing all n the worlwide.
We care about Korean language as our mother- tongue.If we teach and learn in English by means of going for upper higher level in society, we will be too much careful about influence for the learner's recognition of language learning.

Critical pedagogies: reading media texts: receive reading? oppositional reading? Saturday, May 12, 2012
I think receive reading that is big issue or many people should know about something to happen in current situation and informations in the worldwide. That's the reason why many things published in internet site or books etc...kinds of mass communications.
Otherwise, the oppositional reading which is needed someone's different ideas or ideology about something and phenomenon in our society like overusing drug , teenagers' drinking alchohol and racism and so on......
someone's think against some issues or not. Many differents thoughts are there in our society. we will discuss about that......We need admitting their wholly different ideas and thoughts.....
