"Liberate your hair or legs?"91.8% of teachers said, "Students' literacy has deteriorated." [Anchor Report]

Do you want to see the actual state of students' literacy that teachers are talking about?

"We're discussing the liberalization of hair, and they thought it was two legs.The teacher said,
During class
, I said it was the starting point of the incident, and there was a complaint, "Why is the teacher swearing?"

In addition, some students know 'bedroom' as one of the constellations, and some understand 'jokbo' as an abbreviation for 'jokbal bossam set'.

These are actual examples from the 'Student Literacy Status Teacher Perception Survey' conducted by the Korean Federation of Teachers' Associations on 5,800 elementary, middle, and high school teachers nationwide ahead of Hangeul Day.
Along with cases like
that were absurd or difficult, 91.8% of teachers said 'student literacy has declined compared to the past'.

Teachers answered that it is most important to strengthen reading activities to improve students' literacy, followed by strengthening vocabulary education and improving habits using digital media.

However, some point out the attitude of adults who should be an example for children.

[Shin Ji-young / Professor of Korean Studies at Korea University] Should we look at adults who say, "You're not good at literacy because you watch a lot of digital media?" Looking at the reading rate of adults, the reading rate of adults in Korea is really disastrous.

Nearly 60% of adults don't read a single book a year. Stop looking at your phone to your kids, what about adults? Children don't learn with words like this. I learn from my actions. [Adults should read books]

What a sting.

Tomorrow is the 578th anniversary of Hangul Day, and let King Sejong get closer to the book rather than the video so that he doesn't be sorry.

We should all work together to use the right Korean language, regardless of whether it is an adult or not.
