Hello, I’m Yealin Yoo taking part in 2018 Ganghwa Girl’s Highschool Global Forum Camp in Ganghwa Girl’s Highschool. The main theme of this 2018 camp is ' Ganghwa and Goryeo ' and the key word for my team is ' Education ', and our work is based on the differences and similarities between Korea and the current education of Korea. The reason why I choose this topic was my dream to be a teacher. I thought I can learn more about Goryeo by finding the education system of the Goryeo Dynasty and learn more about the future direction of education by learning more about the current education policies.
Starting the camp, I learned about the use of wiki. It is necessary because this camp’s form proposed to submit our report using ‘wiki’. After that, we had time with Kate who is going to lead our team. I ended up introducing my friend, Jungeun Park, I started her introduction to the team and teacher Kate with my friend’s birthday and continued with her favorite color and her dream.
After the self-introduction among the team members, the team began to devide roles and write a report according to the topic. My role in the team was to receive information about the Goryeo and modern educational system from other team members and to write the report analyzing information. After I begin writing the report, first I was in charge of writing the introduction. I investigated the basic educational policies to write an introduction and I knew that Confucianism was the main education of Goryeo. Then when I received the education office of Goryeo as our team members, I realized that there is an institution called Munhungongdo, which is easily referred to as an admissions academy. Also, the content that I compared directly was the Kukjagam , but the Kukjagam was much easier to compare with the modern education because I had some knowledge about Kukjagam by learning it at school. I come up with Meister High School through the technology involved in Kukjagam‘s subject. Actually, comparing the facts before, I thought the differences would be much more than the similarities, but after 1,000 years, there is still a lot of things in common.
Finding these common points one by one was really interesting for me. So the more I compared it, the more interesting it was. In fact, in the first semester, I participated in this similar activity in my school club and the report’s theme was ’the social welfare system of Goryeo when the North and South Koreas were unified’. So it was a little bit easier to talk about them. However, thanks to not only my own experience, but also our team members, writing the report more easier. Before doing this activity, I expected that there would be some inconvenience and complexity in sharing information as team members, but I was able to write the report faster because all of the team members were responsible for their roles and shared information that each of our team members had found. I could feel gratitude for getting information I didn’t know. I was mostly in charge of the final inspection, so I was often responsible by checking the report. Finally It was rewarding to be able to participate in this activity.
