Mijung Jang. 2016. Analyzing Chinese Students’ Needs for Academic Writing Skills in Korean. Journal of Korean Language Education 27-2: 251-273. This study investigated Chinese students’ needs for Korean writing for academic purposes. Korean writing for academic purposes includes a variety of writing skills such as defining terms, summarizing passages and giving examples. In order to examine their needs in learning, Chinese students in the intermediate and advanced levels of Korean participated in this questionnaire-based survey research and the results were analyzed by the range of statistical analyses and the Borich need assessment model. As a result, students showed lower competency in amplifying, defining, analyzing, describing and classifying. The top five skills with higher learning needs were citation, amplifying, describing, analyzing and defining. The results of the study illustrated that students exhibit higher learning needs for the skills that were less commonly taught in the classroom such as citation, amplifying and describing as well as the ones frequently taught in the classroom, such as making comparison and making contrast.
