Do you know about ‘Korean-style online open course (K-MOOC, K-MOOC)’ that provides excellent lectures in various fields for free? There are also many courses for immigrants, including cultural families and international students.
*What is K-Mook? : K-Mooc (www.kmooc.kr) is a Korean-style online open course that started in 2015. This is a service provided free of charge online. As of December last year, 2388 courses were being offered. The cumulative number of subscribers is 1.36 million. However, the level of lectures is somewhat high, similar to university level.
*Are there any classes for immigrants? : There are also many courses for multicultural families, foreign workers, and international students. If you go to the Kmook site and search for ‘foreigners’, 155 courses will come up, and if you search for ‘international students’, 44 courses will come up.
For example, there are lectures such as ▲Korean cultural tour with foreigners ▲Korean university culture for foreign students ▲Understanding Korea for foreigners. There are also Korean language classes that foreigners can take, such as ▲Korean to the world ▲Learning Korean through Korean culture.
*What should I pay attention to? : Kmook basically provides university lectures online. Therefore, the standard is high. If you are an immigrant who speaks Korean well, I think you can greatly increase your level of understanding of Korean society through K-Mook lectures. Most multilingual courses are taught in English and are of a very high standard.
*Points to note: This year, K-Mook decided to provide customized courses that take into account the characteristics of consumers such as young people, middle-aged people, and international students, as well as integrated guidance on various government-specific support policies on the K-MOOK site. K-Mook users will be able to view not only K-MOOK courses, but also customized courses developed through collaboration with relevant ministries, content provided by public institutions, etc., and offline support related to lifelong learning, all at once.
