영문 초록

  How to redesign the curriculum of university English departments has been the subject of crucial debate in Korean academe. This paper aims to suggest what can be done to redraw the curriculum of English departments especially for education-centered universities and colleges in local areas. Interdisciplinary and de-centralizing measures are suggested as key tools to navigate this pedagogical arena, in which the concept of canon is questioned, and the redrawing and expansion of pedagogical focus is expected.
  This paper explores the possibilities of the incorporation of area studies into the curriculum of the English department. It further explains how "teaching America through American literature" can be a relevant subject in specific Korean contexts of English departments, and how remapping the courses of American literature can answer the issues involved in the Korean students" stereotyped vision of America. The tailored program for English majors can only be constructed on the basis of open-mindedness toward interdisciplinary approaches and pedagogical experiments to trigger the students" academic curiosities and activities.
  The pedagogical design should be constructed with a positive understanding of not only "what to teach" but also "how to teach," This design should include experiments in new media, and a variety of teaching projects which encourages student-reader responses. Research in instructional media, and the methodology that enriches pedagogical practices, by providing rich electronic environments that bring multimedia features into the classroom, including digital archives, electronic resources, electronic forum, and aural and visual texts, needs to be encouraged. Innovations in educational technology, and flexibility in adapting a variety of teaching strategies, open-mindedness toward the practical pedagogical use of technology in the specifically adjusted to the Korean classroom environment, will be the subjects of an ongoing discussion for the future of American Studies and English Departments, in the Korean educational context.
