South Korea Study Group

I led the semester long study groups to Seoul, South Korea in 2011 & 2014. Yonsei University served as our host institution, yet our students were able to explore South Korean schools and society through a variety of field trips and school visits. Our students had the opportunity to work with a diversity of students by conducting service learning projects in the schools. For example, a group of students worked with North Korean resettlers (North Korean refugee students who have resettled in South Korea) to learn more about social justice education, another group worked with biracial Black and Korean high school students to engage in scholarship related to race, racism, and supremacy, some of our bilingual students tutored "multicultural" (recent immigrants from Southeast Asia, China, and Kenya) elementary school students in Korean and English language, and a group of young women from �Ա���Ƶ were paired with working class young women to improve their English reading and writing skills. 

Benton Scholars 

I introduced the Benton Scholars, class of 2017, to South Korea through teaching Core Korea and leading a two and half week exploration of the peninsula in the summer of 2014. We traveled extensively in Seoul and beyond. Students visited Panmunjom — the Demilitarized Zone and designated meeting place for North and South Korea, stayed at a village that dates back to the 16th century, watched the sunrise on the East Sea, climbed Seoraksan, cheered for the Doosan Bears at a Korean Baseball Organization game, and ate our way across the region.
